By now, I think there is no side of 'mean' I haven't seen yet, thanks to social media.
I was just scrolling though Instagram, minding everyone's business as usual when I came across this photo of Mr. Nice.
I swear I was saddened by the level of pettiness in most of you!
It's no secret that Tanzania's once shinning star, Mr. Nice somehow lost it along the way and has been struggling for a comeback ever since.
The guy has been fighting his demons over the years and I must commend Kenyans for always giving him a chance.
His fellow Tanzanians on the other hand, have always trolled and treated him like he never introduced Bongo flavor to the World.
In life... shit happens so you should never laugh at someone else's downfall.
The guy is either sick or struggling with something more serious...so please tell me again, what's there to laugh about?
Come'on guys! Are you all that heartless?
I, like most of you grew up listening to his music and looking at this, reading bad news about him on the blogs makes me really sad.
One of my uncles, Saigon (aka Ee bwana duh) once told me "kila mtu ana shetani anayemsumbua, kwa hivyo muombee na wala usimhukumu" and those words have stuck in my head up to now.
So, whenever I feel the urge to be mean and judgemental towards someone, I remember that it could be me or someone I care about then I just put my phone down.
Give the guy a break, besides you never know what God has in store for him. I mean ...he is still alive so you just can't rule him out completely.
Cyber bullying is never ok, so before you write any mean comments about someone who is already struggling, sit down and re -evaluate your life.
It's all fun and games until someone commits suicide after reading those hurtful comments you carelessly make about him or her.
It costs $0.00 to be nice to people!
