A smile lined her lips, so soft i almost missed it...
Then i knew she would remember the young lady that helped her with her bags.
We are living in a society that continues to degrade in social etiquette; one that is devoid of 'small acts of kindness'.
Gone are the days i couldn't spot an old man standing in a bus, for someone had given up their seat for him.
Gone are the days i would get scolded by mama Wachira for being out late, Mama Wachira not being my mother.
This society has allowed foul language in the name of 'sheng' to pollute the minds of those that were taught that A,B,C were the ABC's of life.
The society has allowed short skirts and cold legs, exposed breasts and sick chests; over-sized trousers and exposed undergarments.
The leaders of the society have turned into trend setters where these 'trends' are violence, corruption and immorality; unreasonable competition, visible falsehood, unfulfilled promises.
Bring back the society that cared enough to talk out loud.
A society where one honest voice was enough to bring about change.
A society of communal parenting.
A sane society.
