WOW!
I am yet to find the right words to express what Mūrūthi's #DaiVerse show was like. The words need some deep reflection, one that defies some hastily gathered ingredients for the five-course mind & spirit meal that the show was. And one whose depth I am still sinking in.

So grateful for Mūrūthi’s #daiverse , brilliantly directed by Nyokabi, with Chemutai Sage, #Television #Seben #m3 et al. The poetry, the music, the choreography— a salve of such perfect alchemy that soothed so many wounds. “Civic intimacy” as put by @naddyaadhiambo.

As our nation mourns the demise of CDF General Francis Ogolla, the words shared by his daughter, Lorna A. Omondi Ogolla on how she will remember him, his morning runs & his discipline is a reminder of what a great loss this is to his family and to us all💔 May he Rest In Peace🙏🏿

As I was putting together a poem for this Friday's book launch by Prof. Ng'ang'a Wahu-Muchiri. I came across this video on Land and Literary Arts: Interview with Dr. Tom Odhiambo youtube.com/watch?v=n4O2fR…
Fascinating the different ways in which writers & poets write about land.

Today's Quote was inspired by the strong bond between Patrick Sang and his proteges, Faith Kipyegon, EGH🇰🇪 & Eliud Kipchoge - EGH🇰🇪
Since 2019, Sang and his assistants have guided Faith's journey.
Despite her global fame, she and Eliud have both remained grounded.

I'm finding muses for my quotes everywhere.

This latest one was prompted by a discussion with some of my single friends who don't run & who keep asking
'Where have all the good men/women gone?'
and I say @strava !!

I wrote a feature on Devex on the latest spate of gender-based violence and how the rise in femicide in Kenya has put technology's role in the killings in the spotlight

Sometimes,
what kills others
only makes you stronger.
