Freedom!
Simple word but has really played a bigger part in shattering dreams of many
university students in Kenya today. What does the word really mean? I go with
George Orwell’s definition as the right to tell people what they do not want to
hear and of cause that’s why I am writing this so that maybe you may decide to
choose which side you lay because we always have a choice.
After
joining campus many students misuse freedom to an extent that it has lost its
importance forgetting how our freedom fighters struggled to earn it. They
believe they are free from rules and have a platform to try something new
without supervision.
Of
cause no one ever follows you around and ask why you aren’t attending classes,
why you have bad company, why you go partying and how you wear as long as you
are a student but while busy trying all this, time also keeps moving and before
you realize, it’s too late. Worse of all is watching your friends
graduate. Let’s not show our level of stupidity since humans will always do
anything to eliminate competition.
