Actually I have lived outside of the country for sometime and anytime I go to Kenya I realise Kenya ndio reality huku nje ni fantasy Tu.Kenya is the real deal.You enjoy life well in Kenya.
Its so true, you can lose yourself in work and the kids pay the price. I think the best thing that ever happened to me is a went to college and got a good job before I got married, I also invested in apartments and the stock market. So now I can spend more time with my daughter. Even after I got divorced and became a single mom, I'm still able to spend time with her. I've given up on dating or remarrying, I also gave up most of my social life to be there for her. I have a great relationship with her. Like many people growing up in Kenya in the 80's and 90's, my parents didn't spend time with me because of traditions and work. I didn't want the same life for my daughter.
I totally agree with her that there is no need to invest back at home unless you are investing for family that are in Kenya. I have seen some dudes buying land and flats that just end up being idle as they grow older and their American-raised kids have no connections with their relatives back in Kenya. Invest only if you know the investment is to benefit your siblings or family in Kenya otherwise it is a wast or time.
Dear youtubers. Please start your content immediately you turn the camera on. Stop this long intro thing. I want to support youtubers but they lose mw with long pointless intros. Please do "Hello,I am ...I'd like to talk about..." then proceed! Don't welcome me to your channel or wait for me to join. Just START!
@Joendutitv you do realize the reason you put it out here and not in your diary is for us,right? I am a creator of a different 'genre ' and the biggest mistake you can make is think you're above your viewers. Big mistake..without them you're NOTHING.
@@thefulldoseofwillycollinsm233 I agree. But if you don’t have the balls to put something out there just keep your advice. It takes courage to create or put your inner thoughts out there. Everyone has their style. If it doesn’t please you watch someone else’s content
@Joendutitv if you take your emotions and fragile ego out of the matter you'll process what I'm saying better. Sleep on it,digest it . I wish you peace.
There are advantages and disadvantages wherever you live. You just have to accept it & move on with your life. I have lived in the US for over two decades. I love it & will never complain.
Your summary of life here is very accurate. It is definitely a rat race. The experience for single parents is a lot more challenging. I spent as much time with my kids as I possibly could primarily because I was providing for them. Luckily, my wife stayed home with them when they were younger. Hopefully, they will turn out to be model and productive citizens.
Your wife is so lucky. I got married to a man who didn't like responsibilities and abused alcohol, so I ended up being the main bread winner and care giver for my daughter. I wish I would have been able to stay home with her when she was younger. I've never had a break or good support. We've been divorced for several years and I'm still resentful. Thank God I have a good job and other income sources, otherwise I would have felt like I did it all for nothing.
To help further and keep it open and clear for you sister, any visa you require must be applied from your home land. You won’t be able to extend your visa either in any country you visit. When your visa runs out you must vacate immediately because if you over stay, sometimes the exclusion period may be from 6 month to 3 years. Thank you for sharing sister🤝
The world is a global village now. All that you have said applies in any part of the world where you live. USA stand different in that work and any work pays well.
That's wrong I inherited a lot of money for my family😂😂😂😂 and I still hold their assets😂😂😂 a big house🎉🎉🎉🎉 it was bought in 1964 by from my father's father pass down to his first son😂😂😂😂😂 which is me😂😂 America we never rely on our children to take care of us elders😂😂😂 we fly with all the money to another country find another woman or another man with a cost is very cheap and live like a king in another foreign country😂😂😂 at least that's what I'm going to do🎉🎉🎉🎉

Create your own content stop giving people advise. Consumers feel so entitled instead of producing.

Hi.first time here n i like what u are sayn.keep it up
There are advantages and disadvantages wherever you live. You just have to accept it & move on with your life. I have lived in the US for over two decades. I love it & will never complain.
What I miss most is my family-brother & sisters. I also miss ease of socializing or friends.
Thats real 💯. I miss my family so much 😢 💔
Awesome...Thanks Essie for sharing this content... I'm learning alot from you ...

It's not easy but it can happen, it also depends on your host, if you have a good host who guided you well, you can get papers quickly.

Thank you. On the subject of self-esteem. I was born in early 80s and couldn't know what was eating me. Low self esteem
