Unakosa Usingizi Kwa Ajili Ya Wanaokutegemea
Simulizi
by Alfreda George (Wisdom&Wellness Counselor - TEWWY).
Usemi huu unatulenga sisi wazazi au walezi. Mipango yetu na matumizi yanakinzana kutokana na majukumu yanayotukabili siku hadi siku. Ina maana mipango na mapato, hayo mambo mawili hayaoani. Mara nyingi, matumizi yanakuwa makubwa zaidi ukilinganisha na mapato tuliyonayo. Wengi wetu tuko katika eneo hilo.
Hebu tuangalie mfano moja wa watu ambao wanapata mishahara. Kwa kawaida, kila mshahara wa mwezi unatakiwa kutumika kwa majukumu mengi yaliyopangwa ama yatakayojitokeza kwa mwezi huo. Inaweza kuwa watoto wamefunga shule. Wanaporudi shule wanahitaji matumizi, ada, nauli ya bus la shule, michango mbalimbali ya kidini, kanisani, ama msikitini, na michango mingine ndani ya jamii. Mwezi huo huo pia unakuwa na sikukuu mbali mbali, kama za pasaka na Eid el Fitr. Hivyo vyote vinatakiwa vitekelezwe na mshahara wa mwezi ambao mambo hayo yanatokea.
Kusema kweli, matumizi hayo yote, yanaweza kusababisha mawazo mengi kwa mhusika, kiasi cha kuchanganyikiwa. Na ndugu nao wanakutegenea hapo hapo, kwa mshahara huo huo! Hapo kunakuwa hakuna kulala kabisa. Msongo wa mawazo utakunyemelea pasina shaka.
Hayo ni majukumu machache tu kati ya mengi. Lakini yatupasa tujipe moyo ili shughuli ziendelee kama kawaida. Ipo siku, majukumu hayo yatakuja kupita. Hayo ndio maisha ya mwanadamu, kuwajibika ndio utaratibu wetu.
