2022

Sad man sitting in sunset

Just like 2018
2022 has been filled with loss
It started with grandpa during his illness
Then Maggie followed in her sleep
Now my uncle, in his illness

It is a tough year economically.
Being an election year, its prone to happen
Cooking oil prices have doubled
Followed by gas and sugar prices
Fuel prices are the highest we’ve ever seen

These, among other factors, have made life expensive
There’s a noticeable struggle for survival noticed
Limited jobs with limited and stagnant pays
The year is still young, but life is increasingly tough
But we stand firm and face the challenges with hope
