Sometimes, because of the situation around us, we stop ourselves from embracing an emotion or apart from what we 'should' feel. For example, because there is a demise you 'should' feel sad..to mean you can't host a feeling of relief or even happiness. It feels wrong. Give yourself permission to feel it all. Feelings are to be felt and let to pass. Not for being fixed, avoided, repressed, resisted etc. Feel the feel, respond to the need and let go. Don't give them residency. Fly. It's ok.

Kesho is Father's day...! To all the men who have stepped up to the role in the various forms and shapes. Plan on taking time to appreciate the treasures/wisdoms/good that have come from it. As the bible puts it, whatever is true, noble, praiseworthy...if there's any virtue in it. Think upon it. (Paraphrase mine) Happy pre father's day!

*Today is Father's Day!* Dear Dads, We See You. Father’s Day isn’t just a date on the calendar, it’s a chance to pause and reflect on the weight, beauty, and complexity of being a dad. Let’s be honest: fatherhood isn’t easy. No one prepares you for the nights you lie awake worrying, or the moments you doubt if you’re doing enough. But somehow, you keep showing up, and that means more than you know. Some fathers are teaching kids how to tie their shoes or how to face the world. Some are raising teenagers, helping them find their voice in a noisy world. Some are parenting adult children, still offering a quiet kind of strength. Some are grieving. Some are waiting. Some are doing the work of fatherhood in the background , without attention, without applause. And yet, there you are. Driving to hospital appointments. Showing up at school events, even if you had a long day. Asking “how was your day?” and genuinely listening. Packing snacks, paying fees, offering life advice, or just holding your kid when they don’t want to talk, only to be near you. You may not get celebrated enough, but today, we want to change that. We honor every kind of father: The biological dads, the stepdads, the adoptive dads, the foster dads, the uncles, brothers, and grandfathers who stepped in, the men who mentor, the ones doing their best to heal and show up, even when they never had an example to follow. We see your effort. We feel your presence. And we thank you , deeply. You are valued. You are needed. You are loved. Happy Father’s Day.

Carrying What Cannot Be Seen Today, Kenya stands at a crossroads. It is World Sickle Cell Awareness Day, a day to honor those living with a condition that alters blood— *and also life*. It is also the middle of Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to talk about *pain that hides behind strength*. And right now, all across our country, maandamano is unfolding—our youth, our fathers, our people, are in the streets, asking to be heard. It’s a lot. It’s everything, all at once. *And somewhere in between it all are the caregivers.* They are not always on the front pages. They are not always quoted or celebrated. But they are there—holding hands through sickle cell crises, waiting up at night for a loved one at a protest, trying to understand a partner or brother who has gone quiet under the weight of unspoken depression. Disease and therefore Caregiving doesn’t take turns. It doesn’t wait for the timing to be right. It doesn’t choose one crisis at a time. That’s what makes today so heavy for many: because caregivers are absorbing it all. The physical pain of a child with sickle cell. The emotional unrest of a nation on edge. The quiet collapse of men who were never taught how to ask for help. Those people—those silent pillars—are for being cared for too. So today, let us not just raise awareness. Let us also raise our hands for the ones who hold so much together. *The caregivers*. The steady ones. The tired but tender ones. The ones who cry in silence but show up in strength. You are not forgotten in all this. We see you. Suruvi-Care for Caregivers 0719571770

Anger, like any emotion, is valid. It is a fire that can be used to light the way without burning any bridges. When harnessed with clarity, it becomes a powerful force for justice and change. It sparks action, fuels courage, and refuses complacency. But if left unchecked, unspoken, or unmanaged, it can cloud judgment and consume the very values you're fighting for. *Mastering your anger doesn’t mean silencing your voice;* It means choosing impact over impulse, honoring your feelings without letting them harm you or the cause you care about, so the cause is served by your strength, not swallowed by the storm. It’s not weakness to pause, breathe, and choose a calmer path. When you master your anger, you don’t betray the cause, you protect it. #selfcare
