The Genesis: The Journal of a Working Masters Student

Truthfully, Dear Diary, i really wanted to go back to class. I like reading and studying; i really do. It is preposterous that i almost took a whole five years before starting my Masters. But, i had reasons why i could not start; reasons beyond my control.

You see, Dear Diary, i firmly believe in the Bible. So, i believe it when it says 'All things work together for good to those who love the Lord.". I think i was meant to start my Masters this year because everything else has fallen into place. My Boss gave me permission to attend class almost three days in a week. Please note, Dear Diary, that not many bosses would do that given to the fact that i have to work half day on those days. I call that FAVOUR!

Although my admission to the School of Human Resource at Moi University to study a Master of Philosophy in Communication Studies had some difficulties but i finally got there. I have some few people to be grateful to but i will mention them later.

I just wanted you to know, Dear Diary, that i had all intentions to study so no matter all the ravings, rantings and complaints i might post here, it does not in any way represent my unwillingness to study.

Its me your friend,
Working Masters Student

A Controversial Letter to God

Dear God, Today, I have decided to write a letter to you. I feel it is the best way I can express myself since You gave me this gift of writing. I want to talk to you openly about this issue I am about to write. I want to pour out my heart, my hurt and my disappointment. I have grown up in a Christian home. I have grown up in church. Church is where I found belonging and community. From an early age, my parents taught me about salvation, prayer, fasting, giving, fellowship, service to God and the whole nine yards concerning Christianity. I was told that if I follow a certain path that the Church (and the Bible?) taught me, my future would be assured.   That I would end up with anything I prayed and trusted God for. Of course if what I wanted is/was according to His will, I was told. I drew comfort that I have a loving God; a loving Father who is concerned about my life.   My future.  I was told to walk by faith and You would supply all my needs. I was to...
