Hahah... This your Yoruba quote shaaa. I just understood 'owo' and 'akara' in it ๐๐๐.
This is a very interesting and insightful post and I think the path you've been walking through life is very similar to mine. Life has never been easy for me despite the fact that both my parents are still alive.
Being the first child makes it even tougher because I was forced to grow up very early and I've been carrying lots of responsibilities on my shoulder.
Life has been tough but there are very inspiring lessons that I've been able to learn along the way. I don't spend recklessly but whenever I spend money on anything, it is usually worth the amount spent.
You are doing well โ๏ธ
Honestly, first born deserve a special support from God. It is really not an easy thing to be the leader because everyone is looking up to you.
Not everyone has been able to pick up themselves while struggling with being the first child and those who did always have vital lessons through the journey.
