Unfinished Businesses

Lately i have been having loads of energy;despite the fact that i stick to my routine jogging and occasional travel,i still feel a need to maximize that energy.When i was growing up,reading & writing were my great hobbies,but somewhere along the way,i abandoned them.As i grow older(and perhaps wiser)i have realized that i can ran away from the truth but not for long!

So here I am,with my unfinished businesses,of writing &reading!
 I hope you will enjoy reading my blog and giving me more ideas & above all,MOTIVATION.

ArtCaffe is not the problem;neither are the croissants!

So today for the very first time I get to learn about a certain ArtCaffe that is being accused of racism and selective discrimination in Nairobi.  Apparently, ArtCaffe became operational in 2009, and it has since extended to four main branches; Westlands, Gigiri, Junction and Karen. You see, the reason I may be hearing about it for the first time today is because those are not my ‘normal visit/frequented’ places! Perhaps if it was about Paul’s Cookie Man’s Bakery on Tom Mboya Street or the pastry shop at the Nairobi Naivasha stage, I’d be well conversant! For the few times I have been to the Village Market, I do not remember taking any drink or snack there.  Not that I do not love pastry; I always have to resist myself from taking a croissant from one of ‘the state-of-art’ bakeries here in Paris. A simple butter croissant goes for a cool 1 or 2 euros! Now imagine if I took two daily!   But what amazes me is that, I haven’t at any given time been refus...

Unravelling The Mzungu Mentality To My Young Sisters In The Institutions of Higher Learning

Kenya is a well-known touristic destination for all the good reasons; beautiful landscape, wonderful and breathtaking wildlife safari, beautiful coastal beaches with good climatic conditions as well as of her hospitable and welcoming people amongst others.     For the few years that I have been living in France, I enjoy taking every available ‘Kenyan moment’ which comes across as a way of representing the brand Kenya; Be it in the annual Paris Marathon where I love cheering the Kips and Cheps (as I fondly refer to them) to the finishing line while answering numerous queries from astonished Frenchmen who want to know why, and how in every marathon, it has to be a Kenyan who wins. Vous savez Monsieur, si à quatre ans vous avez dû marcher 10 kms à et de l'école,  il est seulement évident que vous devenez les meilleurs coureurs du monde Is always the response I give, simply meaning;You know sir, if at the age of four you had to walk 10 km to and from school, it is o...

He is IDead,I am ISad

Last night I was thinking about Shakespeare's famous quote in the 'Twelf Night';"Be not afraid of greatness:Some are born great,others achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust unto them". I had one person in mind who have achieved greatness,and was looking for the other two.I asked my best friend whom he would recommend(in my Country).I am not sure we even got the conversation going!But as usual,death has answered another of life's query! Let us apply this quote to some of the world's greatest who have left us in 2011. Born Great- Steve Jobs  1955-2011 On Monday 3'rd October 2011,Thomas Cook,the new Apple CEO launched the new IPhone 4S,the first since his appointment. Many Investors were disappointed since they were expecting radical changes on the new IPhone.Some did not even approve of Cook's public appearance(or is it his name ,'Cook',that sounds ridiculous compared to 'Jobs'!!)This saw Apple loose more than 3% of its...
