Sometimes I ask myself why human beings are so judgmental and I come back to one answer,
it is because they are clueless. If only they knew half of what you’ve been through then they
would shed tears every time they set their eyes on you. Just at fourteen years Sheila dropped out
of school and this was not because she lacked fee or any other basic need but because she found
love. I mean who in his right mind would want to marry a fourteen year old? Her age did not
bother her, not even her parent’s efforts to try and get her back to school, so she became Mrs.
Somebody. Four years later the number of her family increased to six. At eighteen just eighteen
Sheila had a husband and four kids.
At twenty when her husband decided to act to his position; that’s when Sheila realized how
important education is; four kids in the house and jobless. This hit her so hard and she decided to
find something constructive to do, regardless of her situation she could still show a strong face
full of ambitions and desires. Don’t get me wrong it is not like her husband could not take care of
his family, no, he had the capability of doing so after all he is an accountant but a well-known
spendthrift in the village who would drink alcohol till morning while his family suffered. But the
statement he made to his wife one morning drove her to work for her family. She would wake up
in the morning; carry her last two kids, one on her back the other in her arms. With bananas
nicely placed on her head, she took the other two kids by their hands and so they left for the

children. Her husband was also extravagant making her life even more terrible because they had

became a lot of things from being a driver to a chef to a dancer in the night clubs.
Finally, she got her brake through in life; her hard work finally bore fruits. However she felt
awful deep down she felt bad. Besides all the money she got all she needed was here family by
her side. The world became her judge, judging her every move. They called her names and even
trashed her for leaving her children behind in search of money and wealth. This did not scare her
at all; on the other hand it made her even stronger and faced life with a lot of courage and did not
pay attention to the worlds unfriendly and mean way of life. What surprised her was how people
were quick to judge her; they saw her life as being so easy if only they knew the difficulties and
challenges she had passed through. If only they were given time in her shoes; majority would
understand and pity her instead. If only.
