• Mending the family

  Sunrise is only minutes away and Budu’s eyes flicker and open. He gazes across the bed and straining through the shadows, to catches a glimpse of his wife’s sleeping form. Restless, he turns to his wife, reaches out to her and stops short of touching her, wondering, where and how should I touch her.

• Faking It

  Like the lone passenger at a foreign airport, searching for their luggage and picking the same bag, that is clearly not yours, you return it hoping no one noticed. Compromise is no longer an option.

• Wrecking the family

  Iron-Mama Wana stepped out into the rising sun, stomping her way down the apartment block stairs, oblivious of the clamour upsetting her neighbours. The Guard at the gate watched her, silently sighing to himself, as his least favourite boss ambled her way toward him. She made a mental note about moving to apartments with a…

• The Handover

  Every time I accepted a promotion or a new role, I find it imperative to share handover notes with my superiors. God is teaching me about the need to handover issues, situations and matters to Him several times a day. This week, I let God take control of a situation that has plagued me for…

• Self Acceptance

  As I have grown older, I have come to realize pleasing others is less of need and more of a strain. When I moved out of my parents home over 20 years ago, I learned the delights of developing and acquiring my own (very) long list of wants and desires. Quite a happy time, as…

• Slipping and sliding!

  Now I realize that while I am having my sliding-out-of-the-middle-class rant, things are getting financially tighter for the average person. What of the less fortunate, whom we condemn to live in slums and only talk about upgrading their surroundings, as though they deserve no better livelihood?

• Connexions

  Last Friday, we left Nairobi for the great Rift Valley, to attend a friend’s wedding.  The drive down to Naivasha was gentle and dreamy.  The best scenery of highland, savannah, rift and lake changed, as we sped towards the cottage we booked for the night. We had a bit of adventure winding down South Lake…

• Focusing on presence rather than personalities

  The thought that Kenya is celebrating 49 years of Jubilee, as a nation just brings me such joy. Leviticus 25:8-24 brings such clarity to how God sees us and the possessions He has placed into our hands. The land and the produce we grow on it belongs to God and we are to use it,…

• Time to Heal – Let Go and Let God

  When two friends fight!  One friend had a disagreement with another over a very trivial issue.  Others took offence and even picked sides.  In short, a full blown episode of Grey Gardens – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758751/ . Coffee dates and long telephone calls came to an end.  Visits and special days taken off the calendar.  Blank days…
