My 39th Birthday

In the year 1982, in Kakamega General hospital, I was born.. Na maisha ikaanza marathon weh!

It’s been 39 years of learning, unlearning, becoming number 1 in class then becoming number last, becoming a teenager, knowing everything… kimbenye, mjuaji, soaking in so much knowledge reading books. There were no documentaries then… Reading Gifted Hands, Rich Dad-Poor Dad, Who Moved My Cheese, Richest Man in Babylon, Richard Branson’s Reach for Skies, Skrew It Let’s Do It… Na bado sikuwa millionaire by the time I was 25

Then hitting 20s, realising hakuna kitu najua. Joining campo, KU was fun, a lot… dropped out, went back, dropped out a second time, went back to complete.

30s…. Weh adulting what a gwan… Sijui life goals, dreams, plans, investments, kukula pesa ya investment, starting again, moving towns…

And now? Now… Now I’m am eating life with a big spoon. I laugh every day, keep the people around me happy, the little things are now more important.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes I have gotten so far, I know the day has not ended yet. I appreciate every single message. I appreciate kabisa.
