by TeakisiBy Felly Oyuga Life had become unbearable. It was not always this way though. 16 months ago, Cherie thought she was blissfully married. They lived in a decent three bedroom house with her three children and her husband, Saul. Their three children, Anna 13, Anita 9 and the little Jonah 5, all went to a […]
by Ayandola AyanlekeNot too long ago, an image of a tweet went viral on my timeline on Facebook. I was so impressed by the girl described in the tweet that I had to share the image as well. The tweet was from a woman who said she was having a talk with little children and she asked them […]
by TeakisiBy Felly Oyuga I am going through my Whatsapp and come across a post in one of our groups. The post is about a woman who posted on Facebook that her husband watches porn with their six-year-old son. She then claims to cry about it daily. Everyone’s typical reaction is rage against the husband. Understandably. […]
by Ayandola AyanlekeMy niece and nephew are a delight to watch. Sometimes, when I am bored, they provide comedic relief. When my nephew was the still the only child, he amazed me with some of the surprising acts he displayed. Now that they are two, it is even more beautiful. I have written on my Facebook page […]
by TeakisiIt is 2:00 am and I am wide awake. I put on my unkempt hair in a messy bun, switch on the lamp, take my writing book, and start scribbling. I can hear the grandfather’s clock ticking and I know that I am the only awake nocturnal being in a household full of sleepy heads. I started writing […]
Dear Baba Opembe, I have wanted for so long to write to you a letter. To tell you how my new home is not home without you. But is home anything so physical? I think home is where you are. When you are with me, I feel at home and I am more true to […]
by TeakisiBy Felly Oyuga Ever wish you could travel back in time and give yourself some advice? I do. As I am getting older and, dare I say, wiser, I wish I could do so. Although traveling back in time is not possible, I can, however, share with others the 15 things I would tell my […]
by TeakisiI love you. I love you because you are me. I love you because there will never be another you and you are amazing as you are. I love you, each part of you. As you find yourself outside the bra, I think you are fine, really fine. Just learn to stick a little bit […]
by Ayandola AyanlekeI had an experience some years back that made me have an epiphany. I read a story online about a pedophile who was abusing little children in his area. And while I was indeed disgusted at such a thing, I was more concerned about the name of the person. Now you would think I was […]
by TeakisiBy Noeline Kirabo Winifred Kisitu is a lecturer, author, advocate, wife and mother. I was fascinated by how much she has accomplished professionally while maintaining her family life. There’s the notion that today’s career woman can’t be successful at running a home and family. Winifred defies the odds of the dot com career women stereotype. She shares insights on […]
Really enjoyed Dan and Salha’s talk.
Dan obviously has a lot of passion for mental health. The lecture we had about Teakisi was particularly illuminating.
