The clock of independence is not a bed of roses nor is it a bed of sharp knives. The navigation of the realities and personalities in our lives shape us in one form or the either. “Waah! Ungeniomba jana, imagine I am zero right now” “Please even if it’s 500 bob,” As I said, imagine I only have that 500, maybe niangalie but sioni.”

We all have a person or people in our lives that when they call, you immediately know you are about to be dried out of your hard-earned cash. They behave like a swarm of bees in the conquest of money. Lies come out automatically as a block of protection. Well, lying is lying, “Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator,” Colossians 3:9-10. I also fall victim to this same loop of not directly saying no, when I mean no. But the first step to changing is accepting your flaws, don’t bend the truth!
