"The biggest hardship I faced in life is owning a house. We have live in a very house with a family of five. It is a single roomed house where we sleep together with my children. No privacy at night, no space for the members and low self esteem. Building a more spacious house has been a challenge due to overwhelming family needs. It has been hard."
