Just Random Thoughts about Life

Last year was a funny one. Watuulo came to me selling  hen at 40,000; a hen for God's sake! I asked why and how he comprehends me paying 4 times more than the usual price. He told me of all his needs. He needed 30,000 to pay for his daughter's school dues and also remain with "some ka-money in the pocket" as a man.
Apparently, he was pricing his hen according to his needs.

Kawuuzi, a "former OB" got a girlfriend in 2017. She immediately stopped eating at home, needed a smartphone, and a lot of nice things.

A rock at Nyero in Kumi: It is said that if one is barren, they come to this rock,
make love and they will surely conceive by supernatural powers

Walakira, a graduate whose current occupation is being Anyango's boyfriend convinced Anyango to sell off her father's land so that they can acquire a better and bigger piece of land in Zirobwe (his home area), build a house and do farming. They sold the land in Bugembe, Jinja and got the money. Soon after the money landed into his hands and before he could acquire the land in Zirobwe, Walakira's generosity meter rose to 120 and before 2019 could come to end, he had gotten an assistant for Anyango; a helper who conceived before Anyango could!

Life is funny in its perspective but the truth is that I never got to understand the Primary School debate of "Village life is better than town life" until recently when I stumbled on a friend's woes in his struggles to win a place in the "League of Men". He ended his story with a very subjective hypothesis which certainly is informed by his miscalculations: "If you gave 200,000 to a village girl she will buy 2 goats and use the balance for her hair and clothes. Give it to a town girl and she will just frown at you.  After all, 200,000 cannot even pay rent. She will slice it into pieces and rush to donate the 200,000 to KFC, Shell Petrol Station and a Chinese bag maker."

What a sadist my friend is!
