A LAVISH LIFE AT THE EXPENSE OF MORALS

As of the moment, our parents back home are either depressed, suffering from high blood pressure or sitting on a sofa in the living room, regretting why they gave  birth to us. We've hardworkingly killed their past and we are now busy killing their future. 

Their tireless hard-work to produce the best from us has so far been fruitless. Day and night, we are seen chasing their married age mates in the name of love with the adage. "It's better to die in a Subaru in Dubai than in Kenya with a broke man". 

We brace ourselves for the task.Without fear of STDs and pregnancy. We cling to contraceptives such as P2s unaware of the repurcussions . Most of us having no time for the seriously struggling men of our age. What we claim we need is "wazee walio omoka" - the successful old men of our time.

But have we, ladies taken the time to have a meeting with ourselves? Have we taken the time to question our morals ? For instance, how would l feel as a wife when a young girl dates my husband ? How would l feel when l hear my husband died while "in line of duty" with a campus lady? 

On the other end, how will I master the courage to tell my father that I have been fathered by a man old enough to be called my grand father ? Where will I get the strength to tell them I am pregnant in the first place? 

On campus, many of us become senseless and useless. Beautiful without brains. We meet financially stable campus men and get lured and cohabit with them then finally they make us their "wives".

So, we stay in their rooms doing all the house chores instead of attending our lectures. We mess up our academic lives for guys who finish school and leave us behind busy, pretending to  be wife materials. Surely, are we worth this little? 

How many of us, ladies in varsities have been used by lustful boys and dumped ? Then we will carry flags branded "all men are dogs." How many of us have been impregnated by the so called "dead beats" ? How many of us are silently suffering from STDs? 

Why don't we value ourselves and be contented with what our parents tirelessly work to provide for us ? Why don't we adhere to our guardians, clergies, sisters, brothers and parents' pieces of advice? If we think education is worthless, let's keep trying ignorance.

In conclusion, my dear lasses do not follow the crowd. Don't trying to fit in for the more reason of not being branded odd. It's important to understand that it's okay to be different. 

Some of the decisions we make may have a long life consequence. Don't risk your life by selling your dignity for a few thousand shillings. Your worth much more. It's high time we stopped chasing the Subaru boys.

Be catious or otherwise, you'll be forced to forgive someone who wasn't sorry and accept an apology you never received.
