Have you ever felt like you are not living a purposeful life? That’s me right now. Life is tough out there. You wake up every morning trying to hustle and that ain’t enough. You give your hundred percent in everything that you do, but still no progress.

You go on social media to check what has trending and find your peers posting about their success. That thing alone is what can destroy you inside. I know we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others, but the truth is you can’t run away from reality.

We send CVs almost everyday, but no invitations to job interviews. Others call us while they already know who they are going to hire. You post side hustling on social media they don’t share it. They wait for you to share a joke, and that’s when they gonna react.

I wish our friends could support our businesses the way they support celebrities that they don’t know they exist. If we could live like this, we wouldn’t be in this mess. We don’t know what to do anymore. We are running out of ideas.

We are fighting battles that our parents have never won. All we need is a support from our community members, so that we can give back when we become successful. There are lot of things I want to do for my community even though I haven’t got any support from them.

As an aspiring writer I want to continue writing because I don’t know what the future holds. I find solace in writing, so I want to make it a career because there are no job opportunities. On the other hand I am afraid to fail because I don’t want to disappoint my parents. They tried by all means to raise me well. They expect me to restore their dignity. I pray I make it in life. I want poverty to lose my address forever.
