100 Year old Woman Driver

Very few people can achieve what this old Mama has achieved. Being behind the wheel for a record 67 years. On the roads of Laikipia County, there is a very unusual driver. Her name is Nyawira Ndioini who was among the first few Kenyan women to ever get a driver's license. She is believed to be more than 100 years old and she is still as steady on the wheels as she used to be when she begun driving. This lady has been driving for ages and she is not about to hang her car keys. She has driven for 67 years with a record of just one accident. Here is her story. 

My Quote of the day

This quote made my day 

Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all.  Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle.

The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.

Just Those Few Months

I am writting this in honour of my sister who lost a her first born and She so eagerly longed for.

Dear Sis, I feel the pain with you. 

For those few Months --
I had you to myself
And that seems too short a time

to be changed so profoundly.

In those few Months --
I came to know you
and to love you.
You came to trust me with your life.
Oh, what a life I had planned for you!


Just those few Months --
When I lost you.
I lost a lifetime of hopes,
plans, dreams, and aspirations..
A slice of my future simply vanished overnight.

Just those few Months --
It wasn't enough time to convince others
how special and important you were.
How odd, a truly unique person has recently died
and no one is mourning the passing.

Just a mere few Months --
And no "normal" person would cry all night
over a tiny, unfinshed baby,
or get depressed and withdrawn day after endless day.
No one would, so why am I?

You were just those few Months  my little one
you darted in and out of my life too quickly.
But it seems that's all the time you needed
to make my life so much richer
and give me a small glimpse of eternity.
