What is the happiest part of your day?
I am happiest in the evening when I am listening to radio programs.
I feel encouraged to make my family a better place to live in.
This specifically applies to the family programs which I like so much.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I am faced with is shortage of food.
I don't have land that I can cultivate in order to harvest enough food for the family.
This sometimes forces me to hire land but this is expensive the fact that I don't have money.
It is also time bound which does not give ample time for me to do the things I would like to do at my convenience.
