3 o'clock in the evening, a man hurriedly walks along a passage between the shops, along the pathway and into the street. Soon the street was crowded with no trace of any one particular person. Afterall, the street wasn't meant to sustain legacies. But this man, he lingered in my mind as though I...

This book has been eye opening for me. It is a history of mankind’s cultural evolution from a group of foragers who existed along side many other species of humans through today’s high speed society driven by consumer and humanist ethics. It sheds a little light on a past that few of us really...

Who hasn’t heard of Lovecraft or at least his creation, the monstrous elder god Cthulhu. If you are a fan of the Horror genre and are unfamiliar with the works of Howard Phillips Lovecraft I recommend you stop reading this and go find the most easily available copy of any of his stories though I...

Naomy Rotich, a woman so great and lovely beyond any possible descriptions. She was born 1960, raised and natured by humble parents in a simple neighbourhood and eventually became a reknowned nurse impacting lives wherever her hands touched. I was young when she took me into her care. My family w...

When I wake up every morning, one of the first things I do is listen to some good music. And, when I  say good music...I mean, good music. The kind of music that makes you want to get out of bed and jump start your day, even if it's -2 degrees outside. Music has become a positive outlet for me t...
