Last year alone I attended in total 15 weddings and I was over the moon about it because well, my friends had chosen commitment over lejaleja.
However that happiness didn’t last because as of today, only 4 of them are still married while the rest are back on the streets.
That statistic alone is heartbreaking. 15 weddings and only 4 still standing says a lot about the times we’re in. We celebrate the wedding day louder than we prepare for the marriage life.
Lately, People invest in Venues, Photos, Hashtags, Matching outfits and forget to invest in Emotional maturity, Conflict resolution, Financial discipline, Forgiveness and Patience which are marriages most important pillars.
I’m not an expert in Relationship or Marriage but one thing I know is they aren’t sustained by vibes, chemistry, or even love alone. They survive on character. And sometimes what breaks homes isn’t cheating or abuse, it’s Ego, Constant disrespect, Social media comparisons, Unhealed childhood trauma and Refusing to grow
The scary part is Most couples don’t separate because they fell out of love. No.
They separate because they never built the tools to handle pressure.
Someone will ask, after seeing 11 marriages collapse, what did it teach you? Because sometimes God lets us witness patterns so we don’t repeat them.
Well, I decided to pay attention to the 4 standing ones and I realized that there was communication, parental guidance, prayerful and willingness towards making the marriage work.

A heavy build up for traffic heading to Busega on the Northern bypass. This was taken at 6.30am on my way to work. Avoid the route if you can. I’m happy though that Kampala is going to breathe.

.@MichelleObama took on the role of First Lady with grace and authenticity, lighting up every room she walked into. In her new book, The Look, Michelle reflects on her own style journey — from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago, to our eight years in the White House, to today. It's a beautiful reflection of the woman I love inside and out, and well worth a read.
Raila Odinga was a true champion of democracy. A child of independence, he endured decades of struggle and sacrifice for the broader cause of freedom and self-governance in Kenya. Time and again, I personally saw him put the interests of his country ahead of his own ambitions. Like few other leaders anywhere, he was willing to choose the path of peaceful reconciliation without compromising his core values. Through his life, Raila Odinga set an example not just for Kenyans, but across Africa and around the world. I know he will be missed. Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family and to the people of Kenya.
Happy birthday Dad. Every day of your absence makes me realize what a great man you were. Tell the man upstairs that I am grateful for you. I won’t let you down! 🙏🏿❤️
