STARS

Last night as i was chilling on my veranda with glass of juice and "making clouds", I looked up into the sky and marvelled at how beautiful it was with the many brightly shinning stars. At that moment one thing crossed my mind; those were our dearly departed friends and family looking down on us. I named a couple of them and broke into a smile. I was in safe custody.

The count was as follows;

1. Dearest MOM.
2. My 3 grand parents
3. Auntie Penina.
4. Auntie Mable
5. Tendo Philip(Pip)
6. Timothy Agaba
7. Kagoda Jesse
8. Brenda Nsangi
9. Mugabe Kaijuka (Gabs)
10.Lydia Nassali and her baby.
11. Jean Muwanga
12. Little Keira Nagimesi
13. Michael Birungi
14. Wilbrod Oketcho(OX)
15. Sebulime (Santos)
16. Dedan Kiruri
17. Uncle Tom
18. Bukenya Bryan
19. Kennedy Wanguria
20. My cousin Joyce, Roscoe, etc.

3/4s of these were only in their mid 20s.

You could add onto this list. We love yu all.

    It's time to grab hold of the fullness of God; the Psalmist somewhere says "With long life You will satisfy me".

    R.I.P all.

    It hurts when the you realise that the young are 'falling' by the day...Its a scary thing for me..

    and reality dictates that one day...its going to be...

    But when my time comes-you tell the people that... I was a humbled soul,a quiet hustler and a lover of the good life...

    may their souls rest in that eternal peace.

    Very sad indeed. I was just thinking this morning about how many people have died in both my parent's families. There's almost no one left.

    I think the saddest part is that 3/4 were in their 20s. And there was that accident that perhaps killed everyone on board a matatu in Jinja last night. RIP all.

    I miss my maternal grandmother and wonder what she thinks of me :0)
