There are things many of us want to do but can't do, not because we don't want to, but because we just can't. An example of that is the ability to not fall sick or feel pain.
I am a mother of two daughters, an entrepreneur, and a wife. Sometimes I get so overwhelmed by the things I do to the point of breaking down but I can't because no one will do what I don't do. Although many women are lucky to have husbands who help them with house chores and care for the kids. I must congratulate these women. Many of us are not lucky to have men like that. Most African men believe that the woman's job is to take care of the house chores, the kids, and even the husbands. Forgetting that the woman also has blood running through their veins.
If there is anything I would want to eliminate from my life, that would be sickness. Oh, the feeling of being sick and still having to put up with a lot of domestic and official work is draining. Whenever I'm sick and feel pain, if I choose to leave the chores till I'm better, these things will just pile up somewhere, waiting for me to get better and eventually do them. I mean it's overwhelming. I just wish I never got sick. Because it's like mothers are not allowed to fall sick or feel weak.
Trying not to get exhausted or sick is the most difficult thing to do. It's almost impossible for someone who goes through enough stress daily not to get sick, exhausted, and sometimes even frustrated. Although there are women who get comfortable leaving their kids with nannies and housekeepers to do the work for them, the world is too exposed in this era to just get too comfortable with someone else taking charge of your home and kids.
So if I get a chance to change or remove something from my life if I could enhance it, it would be Sickness. When I actually won't feel helpless and weak. Whenever I feel weak, I won't be able to get things done as I want to.
I hope every mother out there gets every help they deserve.
