qadamawe

In dealing with present problems, which at the moment appear so overwhelming, let us, at the same time, do so with a clear eye to the future. Let us be far-seeing in our actions. There is no area to which this rule does not apply, and We would seek to apply it specifically, at this moment, to the problem of colonialism." - His Imperial Majesty Qedamawi Haile Selassie I

Hatta Frasha

The following ain't no lie, I would hold you close, look into your eyes,
Leave you in a phase, no chance to lower your gaze,
I will traverse your mind,
See what's inside,
Clear to tell you're one of a kind,
Coz its like you are the Center between where my future and my past is,
Throwing my world off it's axis,.

Bleed Jewel black

I sit back and bleed black into my journal of verses
It all began in the blackest blackness
She spins my world off its axis
She is either a maiden from paradise,  or a wonderful a wonderful actress.
The way our love burns through the mattress,
Out of the blackness,
Like a phoenix rising from its ashes,
Her soul is a universe,  and a body an Atlas
Just by the snap of her fingers, or the tweek of her eye lashes,
I would cross the seven seas forward and backwards,
She said the future is as far as the past is,
And the present is presented as is,
And the present is Jahs's so you can only present yourself as his.
Be abound in his bliss

Live the life you love, Love the life you live,

“There will come a time when all of us are dead. All of us. There will come a time when there are no human beings remaining to remember that anyone ever existed or that our species ever did anything. There will be no one left to remember Aristotle or Cleopatra, let alone you. Everything that we did and built and wrote and thought and discovered will be forgotten and all of this will have been for naught. Maybe that time is coming soon and maybe it is millions of years away, but even if we survive the collapse of our sun, we will not survive forever. There was time before organisms experienced consciousness, and there will be time after. And if the inevitability of human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it. God knows that’s what everyone else does.” ― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

A Life with Purpose _ In Memory of Dr Eunice Songa-Saraceno

I recently reposted a piece that moved me, entitled A Call To Action below is the story of the the incredible woman that wrote that powerful piece  Dr Eunice Songa-Saraceno, BA, MD

In Memoriam of Dr Eunice Songa-Saraceno, BA, MD and on why Kenya needs to change 

At approximately 4:30 pm of Friday the 27th of January 2017, my wife, my best friend, the love of my life, Dr Eunice Songa-Saraceno, died like a hero. Aged 34, she died young and beautiful, like the heroes of the ancient myths; willing to change her Country she died fighting inequality and injustice, like only true heroes do.

She knew and understood the challenges of her Country and fought for Kenya when, with a BSc in Psychology and Physiology at the University of Western Ontario, Canada and a Doctor in Medicine Degree Magna cum Laude at the University of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, she decided to come back to Kenya, to work in a Country where there is a patient / doctor ratio of 0.2 doctors for 1,000 people, that means one doctor every 5,000 people (any doctor, not a specialist!).  

I remember the day she came back home exhausted after she pumped oxygen into the small chests of children whose lungs got burnt by the flames of exploded paraffin lamps, the only source of lights in the many areas of Nairobi where electricity is a luxury


As Eunice said with some of her last words “We want leaders who put our interests and well-being first and their pockets second. We want leaders who take pride in their positions and use their power to inspire and create rather than trample on and destroy.”

Mind Thoughts: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
