Introducing myself and my journal: Arise African woman



About Me:
I come from a humble background. Grew up in a family of 8 where boys were valued more than girls. I got a regular education and never got to join University or college to completion owing to funds. This did not stop me from being my own woman. I am strong, have a character that has integrity at its core. Today, my character has rendered me jobless, which I have been for the past 2 years. Housed by a couple who are my friends, I have learnt humility but most of all, that endurance and fighting for change in my country is important. I believe that when you feed a woman you feed a nation. And when you educate a woman, there are no borders for generations to come. I believe in women being leaders as corruption would be curbed. I believe women as the heads will ensure that we emerge into what we were meant to be; a strong country and continent with people and mannerisms to be emulated. I will leave earth knowing that my future generations are taken care of in regards to what to expect and what natural resources we already have. We shall be a voice to be reckoned with.
