It is this kind of weather - wet and cold - plus loneliness that does many of my agemates in.
Yaani they just go to sleep and never awake; wanakufa saa kumi asubuhi.
The pain of being alone, cold and sometimes hungry (nobody to cook for them, or warm some water) is too much.
Please take care of your old folks. Send their grand-children to stay with them for two weeks, even if they don’t know how to use the long-drop choo or can’t stand the smoke - it won’t kill them. Buy them a warmer ‘Raymond’ blanket. And call and visit them more often.
What a nice post. Very true young ones. Very true. You can’t imagine how painful it is to agree with this old mzae arrggh. So glad he can’t see my posts.o_O
