Hi Hive,
If there is one thing life has taught me, it is that you never truly know who is in your corner until you go through a difficult season. We all have a certain moments when things are not going according to plan, and for me, one of those moments came when I was trying to move out of a house that I had grown tired of living in.

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but there are some places where you just feel stuck. No matter how hard you work or how much effort you put into improving your situation, things just don't seem to move forward. And that was exactly how I felt in that house. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally decided that moving out was the best thing for me.
The problem was that deciding to move and actually having the money to move were two completely different things.
At that period, money was very hard to come by. Even meeting my basic needs was sometimes a challenge. But despite that, I still kept searching for apartments, hoping that somehow things would work out one day. I would go from one place to another, asking about rent prices and checking available rooms, but deep down I knew I didn't have enough money to secure any of them.
I remember feeling frustrated and worried at some point. Every time I found a place I liked, the issue of rent would come up and I would immediately start wondering where the money would come from. It was one of those situations that kept me awake at night.
Thankfully, I wasn't alone.
My uncle and my best friend came through for me in a way I will never forget. When I discussed my situation with them and they saw what I was going through, they don't just offer advice or encouragement. They offered real help. They supported me financially and made it possible for me to pay for the apartment and finally leave that house.
To be honest, I don't think I can thanked them enough at the time because I was so relieved that everything was finally falling into place even though I couldn't be able to continue with my broiler chickens business because of lack of space in my new apartment. Looking back now, I realize how much their support actually meant to me. They stepped in when I had exhausted my options and gave me the push I needed to move forward.
Whenever people say that good people still exist, I think about those two. Because their kindness reminded me that sometimes help comes from the people who genuinely care about your well-being.
I am grateful for many things in life, but I will always be especially grateful for my uncle and my best friend because they showed up for me during one of my hardest moments, and that is something I will never forget.
