kumi na nne (fourteen in east african)

been out today... at around..it was a semi raining afternoon with a slight rancid smell in the air..in this times which seems to fly by so fast.. it seems that many of us are looking for words to comfort ourselves..alot of my freinds have since turn towards books..
quite unlike my younger days when tv seems to be the essence of life and they seems to be an undying thirst to finish watching tin tin before going to bathe...television is not exactly out of my life..and i won say that i only watch the news... in fact sorry to say but i try to avoid the news especially in the morning.. hehe.. but an occasional dose of television be it comedy or news or soaps seem to make live that little bit more livable or at least i feel so..

after the holidays have started, i have been hanging out and at home pretty much..and recently my urge to read has been awokened friom the more dormant state after i was blown away by dan brown..

current read is a book by torey hayden called one child about abunch of not so well developed children being taken care of unconditionally by miss torey hayden in the book..alittle bit of the darker parts of this planet where we have still ourselves to conquer.. it ain the big things like the iraq war or even catastrophic events that yank our heads to the news to notice..but it seems that many have been blinded myself included...well its not really something to be ashamed of as majority of the human race is at war with themselves 24/7.. the job stresses, office politics, family conflicts, share prices, oil prices, global economy, taxes,where to go for the next holidays etc...but we have never been able to put thiss thigns down to look further..do diferences really mean to cut our societies apart.. or has it been set upon us to see hoe we could be tested and to see well we accommodate others??

blown away...
