DID YOU KNOW THAT EVEN THE STRONGER ONES ARE SOFT INSIDE πŸ™πŸ™ Ever depended so much on yourself ,check yourself into the hospital get admitted , get medication , discharged without bothering who has come to visit you or not ? Come back online and life continued as nothing happened? That’s independence ,now Imagine if I had to depend on people to pay my hospital bill πŸ€”πŸ€” if just visitation needs planning ( food for thought ) get yourself insured my friend ,there is no one for nobody , you are Alone in this world , you matter when your pocket is open, and can invite people for all white party and drinks , once you are useless like I was 5 days agoπŸ€£πŸ˜‚, life continues. I left the country for a whole month, left someone incharge of my absence, when I came back 10 % done ,not even a band was put together, this are one. Of the things that weighed me down ,apart from fatigue 😭 I had to jump from my sick bed,to put up my house together for the luo fest ,so when you see me blow my money, dont question and catch feelings ,, its all my brain and sweat , thanks to @nellyoaks for staying and sleeping in hospital for 5 days while my children doing exams, sorry there is a bell that just rung πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€” ,I still have a terrible headache but luo festival is amust 😍😍😍😍 LUO FESTIVAL
