Let me share short story about my journey, 2013 I was in high school level 1 on Gs mater dei Nyanza  and when I was there sharing more stories with my  classmates but few time they talk about watsup , instagrams, Facebook , but me I didn’t know it because I don’t have phone ,even when  school ended one gives contact to another  on that’s time me go alone because I don’t want any one for asking phone number,  from 2013 to 2015  i was ended my ordinary level but also don’t have a phone number because my family was not able to buy it for me even I don’t have another one who can buy for me, means I was the one to buy it myself and even me i was student and who don’t have anything  but I telling myself that one day I will buy it  2016 when we was in holiday i listening my neighbor said there is some place  she knows wants employees for cleaning rooms and keeping everything which is on that’s rooms where they will tell us, on that’s rooms there are many books  for putting on boxes and cleaning there, when I listed that’s i was the one going there and all people asking me why you come which problem you have this job is too difficult is not for young people and I answered them am able to do it on that’s time manager listening me and telling me plz tomorrow come on work because you have confidence, morning coming and starting my job it is too hard but I tried because I want to buy smart phone I tried and keep trying at the end he gives my salary of 45000rwf I was surprised because it’s was first time taking that’s money on my hands, before go back my home , going to see my friend who knows more about smart phone and telling her to go with me to buy phone, we go there and buying phone of 32ooorwf  called techno y2 but it’s able to receive watsup, Facebook, instgram, like every thing I wants that day I was very very happy, the holiday end  and go back to school and I was very happy because I was remember that if my classmates tells story about Facebook, watsup, instagram, even me i was able to discuss with them even when they ask me to give them contact I have , when I ending my high school I see many categories of smart phone like Samsung, iPhone, techno and others and my friends asking me why you have that’s phone is for baby study on high school and you finalist why? And asking them how can I get good one and my family are not able to buy it for me? And getting questions for asking them where they get it ? They tell me about it one get it from their friends, family, husband, when I listening they are answer , I answered myself that I will get it from my husband whe I made  marriage because I see there is no other way to get it, but I was thinking that my husband will buy for me iPhone 6 or 7 but also stayed patient, proud of what I have, on  January 2022  one of my friend thinking about me and buying for me iPhone 12  in my life I didn’t thinking about that  because it is very expensive but one day I get it for way I didn’t expected and i knows that if you are still live the good one is coming ✊just have positive mindset, be patient, proud of who you are, try and fail but never fail to try  your future will be better than to day
