Eroding Trust: Kenya’s Governance Challenges
Political disillusionment is not unique to any one country. Across continents, citizens are losing faith in leadership as corruption, authoritarian tendencies, and mismanagement take center stage. South Korea’s recent political turmoil following the controversial imposition of martial law echoes frustrations felt in Kenya, where governance has seemingly prioritized elite interests over the people's well-being. Both cases highlight a deepening crisis of leadership, corruption, and eroded trust, underscoring the urgent need for systemic reform.

A Sad and Happy Thanksgiving
The dinner is ready, and no one showed up. You wonder why, but you have no answer. No one had to bring anything you had the main course and all the sides of a variety as well as all kinds of desserts and drinks. No one calls either. You begin to wonder again and check your phone for any messages and still nothing. You decide to go ahead and make your own Thanksgiving plate and say a prayer of grace and thanksgiving for one did show up for he is the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Happy Thanksgiving to me.

Thanksgiving, the big day!
The big day of family has arrived. The turkey is in the oven and the side dishes whatever they may be are cooking away. The parade is on the television and the table is set for the good china and silverware in a festive way. As the day wears on and getting closer to dinnertime you begin to notice that nobody has arrived or even sent a message of any kind. You wait awhile longer, but dinner is ready, and no one is here. You check your phone and there are no messages. Well, Happy Thanksgiving to me, let's eat.

What a Thanksgiving?
Like a discarded fallen old leaf for this is how I feel most of time on this holiday known as Thanksgiving. No one really says "Happy Thanksgiving" to me. I sit and listen, but I have nothing to add to anyone conversation for they all have memories that I do not have. They go out and I join, but they always head back into the house. I really do not fit in down here. I feel alone in a crowd of family. I would rather be totally alone that alone in a crowd. Alone in a crowd is just horrible.
