Different View of the World. Kenya's Unsung Heroes.

Since getting ma new glasses, am seeing the world in a whole new light! Really...

So today I want to appreciate the unsung heroes...

• Yule mama wa mboga. In every hood in urban Kenya, there is the lady or man who wakes up at three o'cloak t o go to the market and buy greens so that they can sell it to lazy you and me, these people work so hard just to make sure that at the end of the day you have a plate of greens on you table.
• That canjo worker. I know we do not appreciate these city council workers, if we did we would not be throwing away sweet wrappers all over thinking that they disolve into the air or something... do you know how much a city council worker in Kenya gets paid... and their working hours... FIND OUT!
• Mboch wenu. I can not sayenough about how much people  misstreat their house keepers, I have heard of house girls who even wash underwear for the woman of the house, really, have we become so inhuman to the point where common decency is unheard of?! Appreciate your house keeper, give them offs, gifts, incentives... you know the deal, do not ignore 'the deal'.
• Kale ka watchie. This goes to those who drive, we all know that watchman who sits at the corner street and watches your car when you go around in the city spending money, and then after you get back, you give him 'ka-mbao' (twenty shillings), comeon! Really, if that ka watchie was not there someone would have jacked your side mirror, see how much that is worth... twenty bob?
• Makanga wenu. The work of a tout is quite difficult, I can't imagine yelling the whole day. They help us board the bus if you have heavy load, they make us laugh with their wit, they smile at you.... talk about harsh working conditions, they stand all day, snack for lunch and start early and end their day pretty late, not to mention no off days! kubali, that jobo is hard. They deserve some 'hongera!'.
• Walimu. Teachers are really something special. Imagine how difficult you were as a kid, and then omeone took their time to mold you, naughty, rude, ungrateful you into a successful responsible adult... correction the stuck-up-son-of-a-gun you are right now.Go back and drop some pizza or what not, say thank you.
• Nurses. What can I say, we all know how whack a job they do, clean shit up like they love it, Aki, kwanza if you have ever been in hospital... you know....
• Garbage collecters. Mapipani.... no one belongs there! they collect your trash, sort it, burn or recycle, bow down, I can't do that. Imagine sorting through trash... someone else's trash. I appreciate you guys GCs. 

So people, moral of the story, be nice. Be good to each other, say thank you... TRY! be patient with others, and do the right thing at the right time, with the right tool, and to the right people... get it?

Stay safe.
