@martinbetalife Oh Stranger! I read every word you wrote and I can purely tell, each one of them carried an emotion.
Praying that God makes it a lot easier for you and family each day amidst the pain words can never erase🥹🙏
May your mum continue resting in peace🫂🫂🫂

I clean hotel rooms. Marriott downtown. Nine years. Same floor. Same rooms. You see everything people leave behind. Trash. Clothes. Tips. Sometimes notes. Last March I started noticing Room 412. Every Monday. Same guest. Business traveller. Never left a mess. Always left a five-dollar tip. Folded under the coffee cup. Every single Monday for three months. Then the tips stopped. Week fourteen. Still Monday. Still Room 412. But no tip. Just the room. Cleaned exactly like before. Bed made.
(Save this later).
My husband got laid off on a Thursday. Just like that. No warning. Twenty-three years at the same company. They called him in. Said they were restructuring. Said it wasn’t personal. It was very personal. He came home and sat on the front porch for three hours without moving. I left him alone. Knew he needed to sit with it. That evening he said we’re going to be okay. I said I know. He said I don’t know if I do but we’re going to act like it until it’s true. So we did that. We made a budget.
@petersoworikab1@KwikirizaNova@SheillahKhadie Yes yes that line “ There is a reason that camera focused on her and not anyone else” said something to my heart too. The stars ALIGNED for her✨💫
I got custody of my little sister when she was 13. She’s 23 now. Yesterday she texted me,
“Check your bank. And don’t argue.” 😭
I opened it… and she sent money for groceries. Said, “Buy something nice too. Not just bills.” Ever since she started working, she randomly sends rice deliveries to the house, pays the internet before I even notice it’s due, shows up with takeout on nights she knows I’m tired. I never ask. I don’t expect it. She just does it.
Last week I saw her fixing the electric fan for our younger cousins, teaching them how to budget their allowance, moving through life like someone who learned responsibility early.
And she did. Because we grew up together. Two kids pretending to be strong. Two kids figuring it out without a manual.
So let me applaud us quietly. I was a teenager playing parent. She was a child forced to grow up fast. But somehow… we didn’t break. We built something. And we made it.
My favorite part of resurrection is when they went back and didn’t find Jesus where they left him!! Don’t let NOBODY find you where they left you. Elevate! He got up! You can too! Nothing is too hard for my God!
