Unlike most
of the children, I never had parental love; and if people did not know my last
name, I would never offer to say it.
Due to
financial difficulties, I attended primary school and at a later age of 40, I
joined secondary. At times I would spend a week a way from school due to lack
of school dues.
In trying to
gamble with life as the only way to remain in school, I got pregnant. All I
knew was that my dreams of education had been shattered and I had to look at my
pregnancy.
With more
than 10 years in marriage and my 5 children, I never gave up on my long time
ambitions of joining university. I started doing odd Jobs to acquire tuition;
this forced me to work over the weekends and later used my holiday time to fill
in for other days.
Not only
acquiring tuition from a Job that many people consider odd, but I have been
able to pay tuition for my children to university level. The Job was
challenging as I had to strike a balance between my books, delivering at work
and managing a family s well.
“In life
amidst struggles, hope only comes to some one with a clear mindset and so allow
God to take possession of your life”
