HAPPY BIRTHDAY MJANJA



The owner of four Simcards, two Facebook accounts, a dormant Twitter handle. He is in Instagram though not conversant with it. He prouds himself  of being in Whatsapp with the phone he borrows from a friend. But we can forgive him because he has grown to own two 'Kabambes' of which all rights he reserves. And by the way he has two identity cards; National and School ID. He is a king in his own kingdom, so call him a king he might buy you a drink.                                        
So painful yet so funny, so true yet she heard it like a rumour. So normal but again wildly rejoiced. The woman sat beside the baby, people congratulating her without her recognition. Just like the messiah's birth, his too was just  like any other. Maybe  worse than the place where Jesus of nazareth was born. We do not care, they did not care too. They just welcomed the baby warmly. He cried like any other baby, ironically his rather sharp innocent cry did not scare them. Infact, it made them sing more and more happy birthday songs. He was a prince among many. 
And now that you have grown to buy your own alcohol may you grow to marry a good wife and produce bright babies like yourself. Happy new year the November man- Emmanuel Nyungu Ndeje!

To be born or to live? To live; for what choice has he that is brought to the world without choice? But chooses he to live who has life. And life is not about living rather its living FREELY!
They say people do not choose to be born but choose to live. Yet some choose to love. And some, only some choose to be free.
Free is what you are today brother! For when no one knew what you would become when you were born, as they celebrated your birth as you let that sharp cry... that moment you chose to be free. And now i am saying, heey Happy Strong Earthday to you 'King'! Saying this with the hope of that free drink ;-):-$ May you have many many more!
PS. Learn to use Instagram and Twitter. About those two Facebook accounts...no comment. For your two 'Kabambes' thats an achievement! As for Whatsapp...need i say?
