Greetings, Hive Ghana,
I am eager to discuss this week's topic with you all. Life has been a great teacher, and I have learned many lessons along the way. One of the most important lessons I have learned is how to handle betrayal. After experiencing numerous betrayals, I can confidently say that I am capable of handling any situation that comes my way.
When my father passed away, I was in my second year of school. I was living with my uncle, his wife, and their children while also working to support myself. The experience was incredibly challenging, and I felt as though I was living in a constant state of turmoil.
Before my father's death, I had no idea that he had amassed such a great deal of wealth. Whenever I or any of my siblings would ask him for money, he would always provide excuses for why he couldn't help us. However, after his death, people started coming out of the woodwork to claim that they owed my dad money.
It was a surreal experience to see people suddenly appear and offer financial assistance, especially given that my father's burial was completed within a single day. His bank account was so well-stocked that we didn't have to worry about anything related to his burial or funeral.
Despite all this newfound wealth, I never got to enjoy any of it. While my father was alive, I struggled to make ends meet, working and attending school simultaneously. The wife of my uncle was particularly unkind to me, and I endured a great deal of suffering and maltreatment in her care.
Whenever I reflect on these experiences, I am filled with a deep sense of sadness and regret. I wish that my father was still alive so that I could confront him about all the pain and suffering he allowed me to endure.
It is difficult to understand how a father could watch his children suffer and still fail to provide for them. To this day, I remain uncertain as to why my father behaved the way he did.
Several times I asked myself what could have been the reason I wish I could bring him back to life he needs a lot of questions to answer why did you do it? why did you allow your children to suffer? why you do hide the money?.
Am still thinking what kind of a father he is. The funniest part was that he always ask us for money every single time but can't never give us,if you don't give him ,he start making trouble and he would stop talking to that particular person for a while,when you give him you become his friend again.
I pray every day to forgive him for all his actions,but I can't it very painful. I never cried when he passed away,I told myself it better I don't have a father than to have one and his not useful to me.
Thank you for reading
