I relish Monday mornings. Yes, I do... I love the quiet of another Sunday gone and done with. I take my run and breathe the cool morning air grateful for another week and hopefully quieter than Sunday, I pray to my God that the independent churches about my house do not hold a kesha this week and pray to God that if they do, our welfare office does something about the noise.
It's only until yesterday that I realized a thing, these churches are slowly but surely pushing me away from going to church. I find the houses of worship loud and believe that it is absolutely uncalled for, mainly because somewhere in Matthew the Bible says talk to your God in a corner... Some where quiet and personal... Simply put, God is not deaf. You should know that I am not an avid fan of the Bible and do not quote it regularly seeing I only know two verses to heart: John 3:16 and Jesus wept, and the later, I have no reference.
The government has failed us, royally. Such a statement is not light, it's sad to say so but government claims 40db limit, I think they hit 100 easy. I wonder the state of our hearing as Kenyans in a few years. It's not the matatus, the churches, the city! Nairobi is a noisy place. Put that in a catalogue because it is true.
