Rediscovering Yourself: Lessons from Wangari Maathai
Happy Earth Day! I know how random this is but here we are. Early this month it dawned on me that I was struggling with a list of things.I felt so lost,so alone and removed from my spirituality. Among the million little things in the struggle list was writing. My body just wanted rest (read sleep) and you know what they say. Sleep begets more sleep and many other proverbs. As the struggle hit,…
Keeping corner by Kashmira Sheth
Howdy? Two months ago I shared that we shall have a series courtesy of all readers who volunteer their stories confessing about their reading journey. The stories will be shared anonymously but if you would like, your name will be shared upon request and there is still room for more stories. Besides the series, we shall have random thoughts, stories and reviews as usual. Today, we set the stone…
2025!
Happy New Year Fam! I think it is still legal to wish on anyone you have not interacted with since the year began. How was the holiday season for you? Mine was crazy; only because I’ve worked through it all and taken two off days. All in all I am grateful for good health, family, work and also peace of mind. I am also very grateful to still have you here despite how desolate I have left this…
Lucky Girl by Irene Muchemi-Nderitu
Being born to strict parents is something that a few people can relate to. Some parents can be very strict, but children who grow up with strict parents always come up with ways to lead an easier life.

Faceless
Life has many ways to kick ass. Some of which are friendly, others not so much. When drastic changes happen, it is easier for the body or a person to pick it up. The devil is the slow, bloodthirsty change that plays catch me if you can. Pretty much faceless; in motion. We had been friends for a few months. A little bubbly she was, caring, friendly but with a resting bitch face. Waking up…
A Dancing Dose?
It has been a while and I don’t know whether to get into it or to check on you first. Circumstancially, I am inclined to ask how you are doing considering the chaos in our beautiful, not so beautiful ,Kenya. I’m glad to be safe as well as my life and my heart goes out to all who sustained injuries during the demos and to the families of our fallen heroes. Sending much love and light your way. If…

Black Star Nairobi by Mukoma wa Ngûgi
When you live somewhere a little longer, there are some unspoken theories, rules and signs that you learn to enable your survival or living. At first you may question but with deeper understanding, you adopt or rather they become embedded into you such that you adhere unconsciously and it’s more like a simple reflex. When Ishmael and Odhiambo find a corpse in the infamous Ngong forest, they know…

Just got Back.
Hello over there. How do you do? It’s been an eternity such that my hands tremble at the sight of a keyboard. My heart loudly beats as I write to explain my absence despite Charlie Puth’s Dangerously blasting in my headphones. The fear will not chase me away because I enjoy this tiny paradise so relax! In the last post, I mentioned that I would be away for a while without giving the timeframe…
