THE WESTERN SIDE OF LIFE



 The western side of life can feel like hell on earth, and I can understand why many children cry when they realize they are born in Africa. It can be a challenging place to live and pursue your dreams. Selfishness seems to prevail, with people prioritizing their own interests without considering the well-being of those around them. The pursuit of money can lead to extreme actions, such as killing one's own brother for financial gain. While money is often considered the root of all evil, poverty is also a debilitating affliction. Sometimes, I wish my great grandparents had sacrificed themselves to slavery so that we could enjoy the benefits today, perhaps living in one of the European countries. However, despite our humble beginnings, we have the resilience to rise from the ashes and strive for a better future. We were born into poverty, but we are determined to create wealth and fulfill our dreams.

A desolate week passed, during which eating and drinking felt inconsequential. Loneliness loomed over me, or so I thought. What I failed to recognize was the divine peace that enveloped me—a silent, yet powerful assurance that I was not alone. It was then that I realized, amidst heartbreak, G
