how many of you are actually famous in real life? I’m curious.
I tend to suspect 90% of you are peasant nobodies like @PHARMACY, who’s shared peasant pictures here that reflect his peasant way of life (ugali in a cheap pub, keys za pikipiki kwa meza, malnourished son chewing on tiny pencils).
Kuna a former dame colleague aliniamkia na ubaya sana siku moja akaniambia vile eti “i am a very small person…” ostensibly in comparison to the “very big people” (read sponsors) she is used to dealing with, driving big cars and occupying big, spacious corner offices.
Nikamwambia hii dunia hakuna mtu mdogo. Even the office messenger may be viewed as a “small person” but to the people close to him/her that person is the world.
Nikamwambia pia yeye some may consider her to be fauna, but to her parents, siblings, and other close acquaintances she is probably among the biggest person in their lives.
Even the beleaguered @PHARMACY is a very big somebody to his children, them chewing pencils and all notwithstanding.
If you are not big in the small spaces you occupy today, what hope does one ever have to be “big” or “someone” in the larger arena of life?
As Kafogo once famously asked; mtu hana bwana, ni uongozi wa aina gani ataleta kwa eneo bunge?
