First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialists Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me. # poem by Martin Niemöller

* Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become. Your vision is the promise of you shall at last unveil.* —John Ruskin*  Your mind can be your best friend or your worst enemy. Your thoughts alone have the power to make you healthy or sick, rich or poor, popular or unpopular. Your mind is like a powerful force that can be turned in any direction to bring about wonderful results, or wreak havoc and destruction. Your main goal in life must be to harness your amazing powers and direct them intelligently and systematically toward achieving everything you really want.  *A STORY OF FAMOUS ITALIAN SCULPTOR* A story is told of a famous Italian sculptor. In Florence, Italy, there is a special museum that was built to house the statue of David created by Michelangelo several hundred years ago. This is perhaps the most beautiful piece of sculpture in the world. The actual physical experience of being in the same room with it is something that none of us has ever forg...

       “If my people who are called by my name become humble and pray, and look for me, and turn from their evil ways, then I will hear from heaven. I will forgive their sin and heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7: 14 )            Greetings brethren in the mighty and glorious name of Jesus Christ. May the Love and the favour of our Lord Jesus be with us all. Amen. I glorify the Lord for the Amazing Grace and the immeasurable love; LOVE that made the world to quake at Calvary. This is my letter to you; THE CHURCH.         Perhaps you may want to know and understand what the Church is; is  an English word for Greek  ekklesia . The ‘ ekklesia ’  is a group of people who have placed their faith in Jesus, who have been transformed by the Spirit of God becoming new creatures (2 Corinthians 5:17). They are brought back into fellowship with God through Christ’s death on the cross (2 Corinthians 5:18...

         It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly ( Dr Martin Luther King Jr) .      Perhaps, for most of you who have never felt the stinging and biting pangs of drought, it's easy for you to say endure. I still don't understand and I will never understand why drought is still snatching us people even 55 years after independence? I keep asking myself, is drought all about lack of rain and extreme long sun periods or is it the heartlessness of the “influential sons and daughters "   of the soil and their hollow and planless intentions of redeeming Turkana from the aching draught? In between those lines lies the truth of why I find myself guilty all the time when I am silent.       All that I can say regarding the above is, “ The j...

Let's not leave an educational vacuum to be filled by religious extremists who go to families who have no other option and offer meals, housing and some form of education. If we are going to combat extremism then we must educate those very same children. Hillary Clinton         Today I want to pontificate something to my very immediate people and the world. I know that as I grow old in my youth, I do not have the monopoly for wisdom but I just want to share my mind, thoughts, message and commentary. I am among those few optimistic individual who believes that Turkana like any other community is progressing well despite of the hiccups that can imbues any river flow pattern.     I want to have just an of-the-cut chat just between you and me, us. We want to talk down into the grassroots a language that everyone can easily understand. We must agree here today, that Turkana has a serious problem, that our people have a serious probl...

  Resolve to be who you were originally created to be, not what you have been, superficially, made to become.        In 1967, an interesting experiment was carried out in the University of Pennsylvania. In this study, an animal was repeatedly hurt by a painful stimulus from which it was barred from escaping however much it tried. Eventually, eventually the animal would stop trying to escape and behaved as if it was utterly powerless to change the situation even  when the opportunities for escaping were presented. It developed tolerance for the pain. It had been programmed, through past experiences, to behave as if it had no power over the situation. The American psychologist, Martin Seligman, called it “LEARNED HELPLESSNESS."      The reason why everyone is not operating at epic level is a ‘programming' issue.      When we visited planet earth from our Lord, we found a world that speaks. Nearly everythi...

“There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over, and men are no longer willing to be plunged into the abyss of despair. "    “Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: Only LOVE can do that." ( Martin Luther King Jr)    Over the last few days, the country has been embroiled in an acrimonious and enormously inane debate/discussion on the issue of terrorism. The media was a wash with Breaking news of terror attack at Dusit Complex that left 21 people dead and several injured on January 15, 2019. I am very much ecstatic of how that anti-terrorist operation was procedurally handled and eventually termination of all the involved terrorist. I must say congratulations Kenya for such a fabulous effort.    However, we must remind ourselves the fact that before we fight the outside demons, we must first scrutinize inwards and excommunicate the demons within. My attention is drawn to Hon Kamket M...

   You have to find what sparks a light in you so that you in your own way, can illuminate the world. (Oprah Winfrey) You are a bulb that lights once in a lifetime. Yet it's easy to ignore who you are. Jesus left us a challenge; “You are the light of the world. " Find your element -that which brings out the divine light in you - and with it, LIGHT UP THE WORLD, WITH YOUR DIVINE LIGHT. Use it to make a difference, light up another's path, lighten someone's burden and enlighten others. You are created in the image of the light of the world. Uncover your radiance, and LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE!    We are not here to displace an amount of air equal to our volume. No. We are here to displace darkness equal to our light . There exists in you a light, the true essence of who you are. However dark the places you've been, at the core of your heart, a flame awaits to be fanned. Wake up. Let the glow of your light illuminate the world! I could not agree more with...
