I was just reminding myself that April is closing out. That means we are almost in the mid of the year. 2021 is coming to an end soon.

Again, it reminded me of last year; April was the month that several businesses were closing doors. It was the beginning of quarantine. And many of us said, “hii ni homa na itaisha tu.”

We believed we had a more robust immune system and expected to return to operations and businesses in 2 weeks.

The sh**t happened. Instead of people getting back to normal operations, we continued losing jobs. More companies’ shutting down completely.

Some people were kicked out of their houses for rent arrears. Others sold households to keep surviving, which didn’t last for long. Pay cuts were introduced.

The unpaid leaves came into reality, the redundancy and everything negative came into sensation both online and offline.

At the beginning of April, people were actually able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. The entertainment industry was picking up so well- most of the creatives were getting bookings.

The advertisement and marketing niche also responded so well; companies were already hiring influencers, photographers, and videographers.

We can’t forget to mention the hospitality industry, where the Easter holiday reflected a high season.

There was immense hope. It hurts me watching the scramble.

The scramble is real, and we just need to keep our focus on the positive aspect of life.

If you were to join College, know that it is on pause, and the dream shall come true. If you were to wed, know that it is on break. If you were to have a home, know it is on pause.

Everything is on pause; we shall begin the battle later on. Tukishindwa tunarudi ushago hatukufukzwa home.

Are we together?
