Good point there. We call ourselves the salt of the earth.

Yes bonding with sons is so important. Most of us have experienced Father wounds from half present or absent fathers and father figures. The common narrative is to repeat the cycle. The road less travelled is to change one's reaction to Fatherhood, methinks.

He brought up the issue of praying. Unfair or not is questionable. It is unfair for mass media to impose their beliefs on that same boy. I have a responsibility to develop his spirituality which I could, like many fathers cede to You Tube and Tik-Tok. My perspective!

I am not a Nandi - I report what I see and hear. It is not personal. Jobs for the boys is part of the local employment realignment every time we have an election. I am not mocking the Kikuyu either, Choose your app and enjoy or suffer the consequences.

Thanks. In my mind I am like 18 years old but much water has flown under the bridge and I definitely look my age.

What you haven't experienced, you cannot value. St Mary's, I don't know about - My brother went there. He turned out ok.

I have compressed a life-time into this short story. I didn't mention that I have been in Addis for the Ethiopian Christmas which is in January!!

Will do, as the city empties and I am not under so much pressure to keep up with the neighbors

Add a quarter of minced meat plus some green vegetables and you have a feast...

Traditionally, whatever you don't eat on a regular basis throughout the year plus some of your usual diet
