Naamka napata Mpesa message and suddenly life is worth living. Mtu asikuambie money is not everything, actually it is, most of times Hata haikuwangi depression ni kusota.
This odogwu mentality reminds me of my aunt’s husband, who had stroke in the US after years of carrying about 90% of the family responsibilities. Constant work and pressure led to high BP, and now he’s confined to a wheelchair.
As a result, things became extremely tough…and my aunt who rarely bothered about the house bills had to double her workload just to keep everything together. Unfortunately, she d!ed last year due to stress.
Husband’s health might not have deteriorated, and my aunt might still be alive, if they had both given their 100% from the beginning.
When one person carries a home, two people end up paying the price…it’s a matter of time.
