msema kweli, i dont mind that he has a good heart, that is one of the reasons i penda him. lakini you cannot go save the world and neglect those who are right there in front of you, neglect your responsibilities. You cannot serve to masters. What good is it to go save all the chics in ur high school if your sisters are at home high on weed and pregnant coz u r too busy playing superman for everyone else? What good is it giving out your paycheck to help your neighbours while your kids have been sent home for lack of school fees.
Plus, if you don't look after your own responsibilities, that will eventually catch up with you and you'll end up so messed up you won't even be able to help other people.
It is like when you are on a plane and it is going down. Wear your oxygen mask then help others put theirs on. Ama you will suffocate as you try helping them and they will suffocate coz u suffocated and it all goes to waste
In life you have to pick your battles. You can't save everyone. Even paramedics have rules of triage, they can't save everyone.
Life's not a garden so don't be a hoe
