The modern day Judas.

He betrayed Jesus! Jesus wept!

 

2012 is over. The world did not end in 2012: the Mayans are liars. Jesus heeded my prayer and delayed the end for a few more days/ months/years, whichever He chooses. I have so much to do that I had to ask him to take his time. 

Like I haven't realized my vision. 

Surely, Jesus would give my country a chance to realise the famous Vision 2030 dream. I hear we will have great roads and highways and we would be an ICT nation and oh, the education system would be marvelous. Did I hear someone say that the economy would be booming?  I want to be here to hear the economy boom, literally. So please Jesus, take your time. 2030 is not far away and you would not deny a chance to a vision-2030-must-see-fan, would you?

Back to the modern day Judas. No, I am not talking about the Judas who betrays you and is given just thirty pieces of silver. Judas (I mean the bible Judas Iscariot), you would have done better. Thirty pieces of silver is equivalent to thirty  Kenyan shillings (in my world), which cannot even buy a loaf of bread. Did I tell you that a quarter kilogramme of sugar is fifty shillings? Now, Judas, thirty pieces of silver?  To betray your master? Woiyee.

So, the modern day Judas. No, he is not packaged as that friend who betrayed you by stealing your boyfriend (by the way,nobody "steals" a boyfriend, he just found someone better than you, too bad that someone  else happened to be your best friend.)  

 

Rather, he comes in the form of the people who will not make me realize my vision 2030 dream. The people who will betray my dream by stuffing a few pieces of silver in their pockets so as to betray my country. You see, I look forward to 2030. I have a dream that I will buy a loaf of bread at less than thirty pieces of silver, that I can walk into a shop and be served by a robot (yey!). That escalators and electric trains will be everywhere. That it will take me less than 30- minutes to go from one county to another.

Oh, dear Judas, please do not betray me. Please do not accept the thirty pieces of silver. Please do not accept that plot of land. Abeg-o, do not make my vision 2030 into a vision 20-nothing. Not when i have petitioned Jesus not to end the world in 2012 (He listens and He is thinking about it).

Please Judas, do not make me weep.

A TURN-AROUND MOMENT

"You should go back to blogging."

Six simple words that had a great impact on me. Sometimes when we "pretend" to be too busy, we forget the little things that used to make us smile. Like blogging, or cooking or dressinng up, or... So, here I am again: blogging.

To start off, please check out these photos of a school-going boy that I took the other day in a bus. I was marvelled by the humility in his face, which I failed to capture. A great lesson I learnt that day: Tumetoka mbali, so do not forget your roots.

Once, a few years ago, we were all probably like that little boy: tattered uniforms, a torn bag, shiny face and torn shoes: heading to school and trying to save that coin by not taking a seat in the bus.

It is my turn-about moment today, when is yours?

Love,

Posh.

A SCORNED WOMAN

They say that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, I say heaven hath no fury like a scorned woman who is still smilling. Just ask Mr. Mbedzi, who is from Bulawayo. His wife fed him a meal of dead cat meat with faeces after she caught him cheating. The wife pleaded with the wife and was convinced by the smiling wife that he had been forgiven. The then "forgiving" wife proceeded to prepare a nice meal for the husband and that is when he ended up gobbling a delicacy of dead cat meat stew and dog faeces. The cat had been hit by a passing vehicle and lay dead in the road when she had the idea.

“I realised that I could not fight him because he is stronger nor could I exchange words with him because he is more of a talker than me, so I used his weakness for meat to teach him a good sized lesson, ” said Mrs Mbedzi.
The scorned wife said she did not regret cooking the “meal from hell” because her husband had betrayed her trust.

Yes, u guessed it right, she fed him while smiling and then proceeded to let it "slip" that she had fed him the meal.
“Yes, I ate the stew, my wife only told me afterwards what it was but then it was already too late. Her revelation made me vomit but i understand her motive and I forgave her. But its not justified because I have never had an affair in my life, I am a God-fearing man and I love my wife so dearly,” said Mr Mbedzi.

Again, what is it they say about the devil wearing prada?

THOU SHALT NOT PISS OFF KENYANS

This is a lesson that CNN reporter, David Mckenzie has learnt the hard way. Twitter is awash with the critism of Kenyans over the CNN reporting that Kenya is at war. The broadcaster highlighted Kenya as a country experiencing violence. The US-based network used a banner with a scorching Kenyan flag and used the word "Violence in Kenya."

Some of the tweets read:
#someonetellCnn that Mpesa is bigger than Western Union, Thika Road is wider than wallstreet and Kenyans love peace.
One hillarious one read that #someonetellCNN that Makmende is coming to get them
while another one said that #someonetellCNN that SK Macharia can buy (CNN) and turn it into a 24-hour Africa movies channel.
The unfortunate incident which happened at the ever-busy Machakos Country Bus Station has seen about 5 people succum to death.
The CNN reporter, David Mckenzie tweeted and apologized saying that "apologies to all. Our reporting last night was accurate, the banner was not."
Obviously, he forgot the power of social media and Kenyans have waged a "social media war" against CNN. 

All I can tell Mr. McKenzie is "do not piss off Kenyans. We are very protective of our country."

WAHU DOES IT AGAIN...AWESOME PIECE..:-)

ARE KENYAN MEN LOSING THEIR MASCULINITY?

First it was tight jeans, then came t-shirts with plunging neck-lines, and now, its the bright coloured shoes that men wear. Yes, you guessed it right, men are competing with women when it comes to femininity. Need I talk about the facials, manicures and pedicures that men are going for nowadays?

Before you jump on me and call me a feminist, look at this scenario. A man was (a few years back) expected to be the breadwinner of the family. You know, the masculine one? The one who protected the woman and his family from predators, devils(yes, he was expected to have this supernatural power that could conquer anything). Fast forward a few years later, namely 2009 and beyond. The man of the house is too engrossed in his looks. Salon appointments, shopping (a past-time associated with the female folk) and to make matters worse, the clothes they come home with after shopping would confuse you. As a woman, am I not the one expected to be in figure-hugging clothes?

So, there is your 21st century man. What defines his calendar? Shopping, salon-visits, and his looks. In as much as we want a well-groomed man, we still need men who can stand out in society and be counted. A man who is "masculine", not necessarily in the physical sense but in the sense that he steps up when he is called up to be a "man".

When I was a kid, girls played with dolls and makeup while the boys engaged in more "macho" toys like cars, toy-guns etc. Even when it came to dressing up, the boys dressed up like Spiderman, Superman, Zorro and many other masculine icons. It is a pity when we grow up and the toys that they play with seem to be changing. Make-up and the mirror seem to be what the men are engrossed in.

I am not saying that grooming for males is bad, but it is a problem when looks take centre stage for a man. When a man spends more time in front of a mirror than a woman does, when he puts on pants that are figure-hugging and defining his form, when he puts on t-shirts with a plunging neckline, then one is left to wonder, does a man have a cleavage to show off?

Where are the "men" in society? The men who would get down to work without worrying about his manicured nails? The men who would stand up and defend himself when he is under attack? How do we entrust the men to defend us in times of crisis when they cannot defend themselves?
