Fact: When you do too much for your children, you are increasing your self-esteem by stealing theirs. We grow by solving problems. Let your kids learn to solve their problems and let them grow.
Quick one:
If you're not Muslim, don't judge Muslims as hell-bound. If you're not Catholic, stay in your lane. If you think they worship statues, leave it to God. Different messengers, with the same message: there's only ONE God. You're don't win souls through attacking others.
You realize that nothing reveals a Ugandan family's true nature like a wedding. People you’ve never met suddenly demand VIP seats, your broke uncle requests a cow for dowry, and your aunt is upset she wasn’t consulted!
If poverty were a country, you'd be a permanent resident. Each year, you declare, "This is my year," yet your bank account stays a crime scene. When will you act without setting uncontrollable conditions? Let's plan.
Let me shake your soul real quick:
Your father never told you he loved you. And now, you’re emotionally constipated, taking it out on your spouse. Break the curse. Hug your son. Be soft with your daughter. The cycle ends with you. Or it continues. Your choice.
Hear this:
Your boss can replace you in 2 hours. Your kid can’t replace you in a lifetime. But somehow, you give more time to your boss than your child. This country doesn’t need more “hardworking employees.” It needs present fathers. Fix your priorities before they bury you.
You clock out at 5pm and act like your workday is done. No, it’s just starting. Your real job is to build your life, not someone else's empire. Nobody is coming to hand you freedom. You clock in for yourself or you die stuck.
You think they’re quiet because they’re weak. But they’ve fought wars you wouldn’t survive. They smile because peace is a choice not because they can’t clap back. Don’t confuse restraint for fear. If they ever decide to respond, it won’t be petty. It’ll be permanent... ✍️
Uncomfortable truth:
If you don’t bring growth, peace, or opportunity into someone’s life, what exactly is your role there? Comfort? Entertainment? Even Netflix is cheaper than dealing with emotional freeloaders.
Ugandan men wait for rock bottom to find God. After heartbreak. After job loss. After depression. But real strength is building your faith when things are fine. Don’t wait for life to humble you.
