Describe the biggest difference in your daily life.
My life has changed because I bought a motorbike for transportation business. On a daily basis, I can have a profit of ten thousand shillings which has enabled me to provide for my family like food, treatment and also paying school fees. Previously, I could not afford to meet my family needs because I had no source of income.
