I remember this one time I saw a colleague crying outside the office.

Being the gentleman I was, I decided to go over and offer some comfort or maybe help.

Wueh. 😂

Just as I was about to ask her what was wrong, she looked up, saw it was me, and started crying even harder. 😭😭

Then she started telling me to go away while waving her hand at me like I was a hawker she wasn't interested in buying from. 💀

The way she looked at me, you'd think the thought of me helping her was somehow worse than whatever she was crying about. 😂

At that point I didn't even say anything. I just turned around and left.

Before colonial rule, there wasn't really a single Kenyan government bringing all these different communities under one political system. Instead, there were many distinct communities with their own leadership, territories, alliances, and ways of organizing themselves.

You can even see this pattern within communities themselves. As populations grew and expanded, groups often split into smaller clans, lineages, or related communities rather than forming one increasingly centralized political unit. The Kikuyu, for example, developed into many different clans and local communities. The Kalenjin are another interesting example: they consist of multiple related groups that share linguistic and cultural connections but historically had their own distinct identities and political organization.

The Maasai are another interesting example. They could have had strong warriors and military advantages over neighboring communities, but that didn't necessarily mean their goal was to conquer and permanently govern those communities. They could raid, take cattle, fight, and then return to their own territory.

Maybe the point isn't that one tribe was incapable of conquering another, but that there wasn't necessarily a strong political incentive to create one centralized state over everyone else.

This makes me think that we need to study our own history much more seriously. Instead of constantly looking to Western countries, Singapore, or other successful societies and asking "How do we copy them?", perhaps we should first understand how our own societies historically organized themselves, solved problems, governed communities, traded, handled conflict, and maintained social order.

That doesn't mean rejecting Western ideas or Singapore's successes. It means understanding ourselves first, and then deciding which outside ideas actually fit us.

Maybe some of the answers to Kenya's future are sitting in our own past, and we haven't studied them deeply enough.

What do you guys think? Is Kenya historically better understood as a segmentary/decentralized society, where political identity was naturally organized around smaller communities, clans, and groups rather than one centralized state?

It is easier to believe the world is kind when it has been kind to you.

It is easier to call others lazy after your own success, forgetting how much of your journey depended on chance, timing, or circumstances beyond your control.

It is easier to believe you are exceptional when you happened to be born where opportunity is abundant rather than scarce.

It is easier to defend the religion you inherited than the one you had to discover.

Most people are born into a faith long before they are capable of questioning it.

If there is one true God, then billions of sincere people are simply born into the wrong story. If eternal destiny depends on finding the right one, then birthplace may shape eternity more than choice.

If God exists outside time—seeing the past, present, and future at once—then He already knows where my life ends. He already knows whether I reach heaven or hell.

If my final destination is already known, what does freedom truly mean?

And if eternal punishment is entirely my responsibility, should justice not require that every soul begin from the same starting line? The same family. The same education. The same health. The same opportunities. The same doubts. The same temptations.

Can two people be judged by the same standard when life never offered them the same choices?

Perhaps this life is already a consequence rather than a beginning. Perhaps what we call existence is itself a form of judgment, and death is not an ending but another awakening.

Maybe heaven is already inhabited, and those destined for it have already arrived. Perhaps Christ's sacrifice was not merely forgiveness but the opening of a second chance for those who had already fallen.

Or perhaps none of this is true.

Perhaps there is no God at all.

Consciousness may simply be a rare accident of matter.

If humanity one day conquers aging, disease, and death, the wealthiest among us may become something our ancestors would have called gods—not through divinity, but through technology.

Immortality, if it ever exists, may become a privilege instead of a promise.

Or perhaps the truth lies in another faith entirely.

I cannot honestly dismiss the existence of God, because I cannot explain why anything exists at all.

Where did the first atom come from? Why is there something instead of nothing? Science can describe many processes, but the question of ultimate origin remains.

So I remain between belief and doubt.

Not because I reject God, but because I have not yet found certainty.

Do you guys have any communities for inspiration and sharing your work ?

or even job opportunities, like the ones we have in tech .

Just last week my friend was telling me vile he started dating a lady and two weeks in she moved into his house. He was proudly telling me that the lady washes the dishes often, cooks sometimes and does shopping whenever she gets money. The guy pays rent and does hubby duties. From his perspective they are married but the lady said she's not ready to get a kid until they get to know each other better. That's fair considering they've been living together 5 months now.

​Remember the lady still doesn't help with the bills. They are both 35 and I think at age 35 a lady should have figured her life out. So when they met the lady was living with her parents that's why the guy let her move in despite the fact that he lives with his kid. This guy is a lawyer but I still can't imagine he's proudly feeding this lady kwanza in Nairobi. Maybe the lady is genuine but her saying she's not ready for a kid yet the guy is very ready just feels like she's buying time.

​Makes me wonder what happened to the traditional expectations of a partner holding their weight. Nowadays ladies will shamelessly come live in your house and watch you do everything since it's your house. I've met several ladies who want to come over to my place for the first meeting and I just ghost them, I find it disgusting. Now I'm wondering is this a norm? It might be toxic lakini as a guy hutakuja kwangu unioe. It's probably why I'm still single. Ama is this how you guys get married out here? The game is rigged fr.
