Where are you wondering?

  God sent Adam and Eve to Earth. They were unfamiliar with this new place. They struggled for many years. They learned to cultivate the land. They learned to adapt to nature. They discovered how to find food. Their primary concern was survival. They required food and water. Why did God allow them to suffer? Christians believe they rejected God's grace. Muslims think they were tempted by Satan.  Religions do not provide answers for Adam and Eve's suffering. How and why did a loving God make them suffer on earth?

My experiences in Nairobi, Kenya

Prometheus fellowship ended in Nairobi, Kenya, in July 2024. I met fellows from more than 40 countries this time. I saw hopeful and inspiring leaders who were brilliant and motivated about their lives and the world around them. Brazilian people were astonished when they saw people crossing highways in Nairobi. Indians were busy exploring the city and were very conscious of the exchange rate. Nepalis were busy networking. Africans were there to help others and prepare for upcoming debates. Pakistanis loved Keiynan tea and Indian food. Kenyans are brilliant people on earth. I noticed two things about Kenyan people. The good thing is that they are honest, helpful, and nice to foreigners. The unfortunate aspect is that they are dishonest when it comes to finances. It is my subjective opinion; different people have other observations. Sometimes, when they know you are a foreigner, they charge you more or ask for additional money, especially in transportation services like Bolt and Uber, as ...
