Stick To Your Lane - Alex Shipiri

Alex Shipiri shares his story of growing up in a 'pretend neighbourhood' - Woodley and his experience getting through school. Most importantly, he shares an experience of towing a friend's car from Naivasha to Nairobi using his rickety old pick up truck; an experience that taught him a valuable life lesson - Stick to your lane

My second favorite piece is here. I had enough fun listening and watching. I love his eloquence, delivery skills, sense of humor. I'd love him back.

[@beatricebolger9824]

Love it very inspirational we also went to Kilimani, St George’s and Nairobi Primary. I am glad our parents were thoughtful of our academic excellence. We have successfully made it in life.

[@maurinelimo8145]

Alex is so good in delivering his story. Would love to hear him speak again. Beautiful story!

[@meganmugodo9706]

Greatest sense of humour. Loved it so much I've watched twice so far. "Stick to your lane and eventually it will all come together"

[@headofprotocol]

Alex indeed has a way with words and a voice to boot. A story well told!

[@annenekesaobara]

Great story Alex. You are an amazing storyteller. As a Woodlian, I can relate on some aspects of your story. And Yes, I remember Old Faithful.

I attended Nyeri Primary school back when it was a school for the who is who in Kenya. I can relate to Alex's story: I too learnt resilience and sticking to my lane from a very early age.

It was interesting though.

[@naillahanne4129]

I love your already hehehe

[@deotio2768]

For nonconformity the world whips you with its displeasure. And therefore a man must know how to estimate a sour face. The by-standers look askance on him in the public street or in the friend's parlour. If this aversation had its origin in contempt and resistance like his own, he might well go home with a sad countenance; but the sour faces of the multitude, like their sweet faces, have no deep cause, but are put on and off as the wind blows and a newspaper directs. Yet is the discontent of the multitude more formidable than that of the senate and the college. It is easy enough for a firm man who knows the world to brook the rage of the cultivated classes. Their rage is decorous and prudent, for they are timid as being very vulnerable themselves. But when to their feminine rage the indignation of the people is added, when the ignorant and the poor are aroused, when the unintelligent brute force that lies at the bottom of society is made to growl and mow, it needs the habit of magnanimity and religion to treat it godlike as a trifle of no concernment.
