Life is so unpredictable.



"Life is so unpredictable and so Uncertain" When we were growing up,our mother made sure we learn to work,whenever we would go for holidays ,she would give our househelper paid leave, so she goes home to be with her family as we also learn how to work. A work schedule would be drawn and pinned on the wall and everyone knew their everyday duties. And during those holidays when the house helper would stay she would constantly remind us of how the house helper is only around to help her and not us. And because of this our housework schedule had to continue. Whenever we would be digging she would tell us stories but one thing she kept on saying was life is so unpredictable and thats why she wanted us to learn how to do house work and farming so that incase life becomes hard in future ,we would be able to survive. My dad being a farmer who had a coffee plantation ,when we joined secondary school ,we started picking coffee every holiday. I must admit it wasn't fun at all but when I look back it was worth it because it taught me to be hardworking . So don't be ashamed of your side hustle because you're a graduate or have a well paying Job. Like my mum used to say"life is so uncertain and unpredictable" and who knows that side hustle might help you get back on your feet incase everything else fails to workout for you.
