Me,life and March

Finally we had the rains. Alot of ppl would be waiting for it @ this time of the year(esp. Farmers,n dad). He took his annual leave just to plant maize. But that aside,the fresh smell of soil,the chill feeling it comes with,the heavy rain drops(I often think it expects something frm us,ever listened carefully?like it rains really hard n suddenly stops?to what?listen to what we r saying?). Nyhuu,thts what I was waitng for,now tht I reflect back.

So I spend most of the time in Kapsabet. Its a small town(u can practically count the residents without calling on KNBS). Its very silent,clean environ,plenty of milk,lots of culture,friendly neighbours,more like an extended family,same as our rural home in Mukuyuni(BGM).

Otieno(Ot) is the guy in the neighbourhood who is mentally sick,or so we think, bt his calm,repect,sanctity of life in him n the religious believe wil get u thinking otherwise. He would approach dad with a line like"pls help with 20 shillings I tek to church as an offering" n dad wil not only give him bt the praises I got abt him frm his Eng to humility left me buffled.

Life is one interesting phenomenon as I would get to learn from my smal bro(Hagen),he wrote,"life is bt a race,hw u end it is wat matters. Every man will die,hw n whr is wat differs as they also say,every man is mad,the %is wat varies. Life will never be fair,to one,God will give a couch n to another a stool n yet they all live under Him." I guess this summarises my relationship with Ot.

Colonnel Gaddafi is staying put in tht apperantly hot seat. The NATO is leading the air strikes. He swore today that he's not gonna step down or wat does this statement mean"they have started something dangerous,something they cannot control. It will be out of their control no matter wat methods of destruction they have at their disposal" where did akina Nelson Mandelas go to. Is it gonna always be like this in third world countries? Or is it a case of vested interest by the developed nations? Either way, the sanctity of life must be preserved.

The world criket got underway in India,did I mention its their second religion after Hindu? Those guys adore the game. I don't even know hw its scored. They qualified for the finals on 2nd April n I don see ny one in their way.

Japan. Definately this country has endured alot. Any country would cramble under such a tragedy. Do those nuclear reactors contain plutonium? Found out its the deadiliest chem available(frm Law n Order). Kudos to Japan for the good work,u definately knw that the most precious resource is your citezens. God's blessings is all I can pray for.

God's blessings,lots of friends,love,peace of mind for April. Champions league(can I smell them haters),Cricket finals,Masters(Tiger woods wil be making a come back). Ot, fresh air and this blog will stay on to inspire,remind and help keep the most treasured of memories. God bless n remember to count your blessings.
