The day I realized that nobody is coming to save me.
Growing up, life was never easy for me. From my early teenage years, while many people my age were enjoying life, I was already struggling to survive.
I started smoking fish in bulk for one of my aunties just to earn daily payment. Every morning, I would stand for hours around fire, heat, and heavy smoke. The work was stressful, but I did it joyfully because I knew survival depended on it.
I became very fast at it. In just four hours, I could prepare up to 10 cartons of fish and arrange them neatly on the racks for drying. People were always surprised at how hardworking I was at such a young age.
But deep down, my body was suffering.
The smoke affected me badly. My eyes burned constantly, my chest often felt heavy, and coughing became part of my daily life. There were even nights I would suddenly wake up unable to breathe properly. In those moments, it felt like life was slowly leaving my body.
But I kept going.
Stopping meant no payment.
Stopping meant hunger.
Stopping meant becoming helpless.
As I grew older, life became even harder. Responsibilities increased, disappointments came, and many times I felt completely alone. I kept hoping somebody would notice my struggles and help change my story.
Then one day, reality hit me.
I sat alone, emotionally exhausted, hoping someone would check on me or simply ask if I was okay. But nobody called. Nobody came.
That was the day I realized nobody was coming to save me.
At first, it broke me. But later, it changed me.
I realized that if my life was going to change, I had to stop waiting for rescue and start becoming my own rescue.
So I kept pushing.
I became stronger mentally.
I learned how to survive pain quietly.
I learned how to keep moving even when life felt heavy.
Looking back now, I realize those difficult moments were building strength inside me all along.
The day I realized nobody was coming to save me was painful, but it was also the day I truly started growing.
And even today, I am still evolving, still healing, and becoming an even better version of myself.
