I
heard about the death of the Grace Makosewe and Achieng’Abura on social media,
and in each case it was a ‘what?’ ‘what?’ gut wrenching reaction. Then it

mature age of 26 years. What dream are you holding back on, waiting for perfect
conditions in order to pursue?
At the very least they died living their dreams and their best life, with
little to regret.
