Born in the Republic of Burundi, a country that has endured many violent civil wars since declaring its independence in 1962, Dr Levi Rukundo is the author of many books such "From the Law into the Grace, 2010", "Living with the Invisible World, 2011", "The Wounded Soul, 2012", "The Pathway to Resilience, 2014" and and now, "The Journey of a Secret Servant, 2015". When it comes to talk about the conflict resolution in Burundi, Dr Levi Rukundo places the cause in the past history of the country and describes with astonishing details all tragedies that plunged inhabitants into deep mourning and sorrow since 1972, again in 1988 and 1993 up to the present day. Many people have been killed and buried in mass graves while some other bodies have been devoured by wild animals. These persecutions forced thousands upon thousands of Burundian people into exile. The turmoil has left the country with many orphans, widows, and refugees-as well as many rebels who want to fight against the oppression. During the unrest, He tried to join the rebellion in order to establish a state of law. His goal was to be an officer of the new army, or even a general of the National Army that would protect all people and restore lasting democracy in the broken country. What he heard during times of prayer confused him. On several occasions, people prophesied that he had no place in armed groups because, "God did not choose you to be a killer, but a healer." You will learn more by reading this testimonial book about what happened. This book will take you into a therapeutic session of sad, stressful and tragic events; and bring you back to hope, trust and edification to face every day life challenges. Dr. Rukundo's trajectory shows that he has been a teacher of primary schools, then a teacher and a principal of high schools, and became later a professor of universities as he holds a PhD in Clinical Psychology. He has been a political prisoner tortured, facing death sentences, and then a political refugee for many years before becoming a regular citizen. He has worked in the state office of the presidency, at two occasions, and has worked as a diplomat in the Russian Federation and in the United States of America. He has had great experiences that should be shared with the world.

The UglyBeautiful Tale of a Stupid, Stupid Heart is a riveting tale of a blind, carefree, yet kindest of the hearts that will amuse and anger, tickle, and unfortunately makes you shed a tear Set in Mount Elgon, Western Kenya, the book tells a story of two neighboring families (that of Joram and that of Sikowo) hailing from the Bok, who happens to be the majority, and the Ndorobo, apparently a persecuted minority, respectively. At the core of their perennially paradoxical relationship, is the ever-emotive issue in our modern-day Kenya: land.This is not a love story; neither is it a story about love... The UglyBeautiful Tale of a Stupid, Stupid Heart is a story, fictitious and real yet imaginatively recounted and recreated anew, about living a lie, a day at a time until death suddenly, fiercely shuts its dark door of mercy, and tramples one upon the vast emptiness. This is especially the case when David and Wairimu, apparently engaged in a forbidden passion, unfortunately finds themselves in the unforgivable, cruel and menacing jaws of death in Runyenjes thanks to a bloodthirsty mob that is on a killing spree and eager to avenge the deaths of their fellow tribesmen butchered earlier in Rift Valley, Kisumu and the Coast.David is a dynamic character whose emotions, attitudes, and temperaments areunfathomable. After betraying his childhood sweetheart, Chebet, and subsequentlyabandoning her in her most needy hour to face an accusing world after an unexpectedpregnancy all by herself, he discreetly falls in love with Wairimu. Wairimu is an exceedinglybeautiful, gorgeous, exquisite, marvelous and amazing young woman whose irresistiblecharms, wit and affection takes his life to places unknown...and finally, to his grave The book explains how successive regimes helped plant a seed of animosity betweenthe two Sabaot sub tribes, watered it, and pruned its branches until its fruition stage. Afterdecades of blatant indecisiveness, Sabaot Land Defense Force was born. The bloodthirstymilitia will eventually set up a parallel government and fronted a leader of its choosing whowon the Mount Elgon constituency parliamentary seat with a landslide in the contested 2007Kenyan General Elections. The book also wittingly revisits the 2007/2008 Post ElectionViolence, why it all had to happen, why it might happen yet again and implicitly offers apathway that might save Kenyans from an imminent recurrence. Most important, in detail, itexplains the recipes that often give birth to militias in modern-day Kenya whose illegitimatetact of trying to solve a legitimate issue is rarely refreshing (as was the case with Sabaot LandDefense Force).More so, the book gives you an ideal picture of how it was living through thoseturbulent moments when Kenyans maimed, beheaded, evicted, forcibly circumcised, robbed, raped, and shattered lives of fellow Kenyans. It is a necessary retreat to 'that' ugly past thatwe would have loved to forget as soon as last year...that past that is indeed a dark chapter inour history as a country that we must draw meaningful lessons from. We must thus make itour default duty reminding our seemingly ever-self-centered, crafty, and unpredictable leadersthat never again should they take us back there.The UglyBeautiful Tale of a Stupid, Stupid Heart is a unique, nostalgic, and candid manifestation of our everyday struggles, challenges, and hurdles in life with self and others. Many a time, such hurdles are direct consequences of personal decisions resulting from the usual interactions and the seemingly never-ending complex relationships with our friends, relatives, neighbors and the ruling elite in our society
