Simplicity detoxifies your soul. And simplicity only comes when you’re done. Done with things that don't feel like you anymore. Done chasing trends. Chasing people. You stop trying to "keep up". You stop trying to impress. Pretending feels painful. And slowly... life becomes quieter. A small circle. A private life. A calm mind. Meaningful work. Slow mornings. Deep conversations. Peace. That’s the strange thing about life... the more authentic you become, the simpler everything gets.
The older I get, the more I believe happiness lives in the ordinary. Pets. Plants. A quiet morning coffee. Blue sky. Cotton clouds. Birds singing. The gentle breeze through the trees. A clean, cosy house. Good food. Good hearted simple poeple. So much of life’s beauty is quiet, gentle, and already here. And somehow, one of the sweetest feelings is knowing I get to wake up and meet it all again tomorrow.
"We cannot continue to be ruled like this, by sick people. By mad people. Liars and thieves and criminals. These are the people who are in power in Kenya." - Julius from Kenya 🇰🇪
But we are ready for this conversation. So now that you've mentioned it, let's talk about it. And I want us to go straight to the primary source - the actual main character, as it were.
You have a massive crowd. They've been listening to you talk all day. They're famished.
You broke the economy on behalf of @IMFNews. IMF told you to stop providing education, you created a new university funding model and broke the school system into 4 parts so that most children never go beyond junior secondary. You broke the healthcare system so that expensive care is privatized and you use taxes to provide health care.
And now the people whom you tax to provide healthcare are the same ones you're using dog whistles to incite the poor to attack them. All this just to promote the West's agenda was of keeping Africa on its knees so that the dying empire can feel tall.
To all the women who faced the inhumanity of rape last night after the protests, my heart bleeds with you. It's an unimaginable the trauma of having your freedom trampled on when you were fighting for your rights. I was so troubled that I couldn't sleep and said a prayer for you all 💔
May your spirits heal and may you be avenged by the Almighty!
You cannot piss on a generation’s future and expect peace.
You cannot bankrupt a country, then gaslight the hungry with prosperity sermons from pulpits and podiums.
Dear God be with Kenyans and ensure each person gets back home safe and alive.
Not sure if these are intimidation tactics, but it is really scary/sinister for media stations to be gagged at such a pivotal time
