Hallo liebe Freunde, heute möchte ich mal eine Lanze für die brechen die unsere Kultur nur schwer verstehen können. Ich bin überzeugt dass einige von euch das eins zu eins unterschreiben können und mich verstehen können aber ihr lebt ja auch hier bei uns in Deutschland. Darum möchte ich folgende Worte an meine afrikanischen Freunde richten, damit sie mich vielleicht ein wenig besser verstehen.
 Hello, dear people, this message is for the people who follow me on Facebook from Africa to show him what people look like in Germany. He thinks that we are rich in Germany, that we have a car, an apartment and of course a well-paid job. Unfortunately I have to disappoint you and at the same time confirm this. Of course I have a job, I correct myself, I have three jobs, actually four. One job is the one I do every day and that is 38 and a half hours a week. The second is my voluntary participation in a gym where I spend about 6 hours a week. As usual, it is not paid and it does not need to be because I enjoy doing it. The third job is working for the association. This is where I spend my evenings, traveling for the projects in Africa and what we need, talking to people to find sponsors, lots of housework writing emails and keeping our members up to date. Then I have lots of other activities in which I help people and I do this on a voluntary basis. If I still have some free time, I need it to eat, drink, sleep and maybe go out with someone. But that rarely happens. And if you're wondering what I do with all this money, I have costs: rent, insurance, food and drink, and yes, I need a bit of money to live on. But it's very important that I save some of this money so that I can later pay for the trip to Africa, the flight, and often the many costs that go with it. But the biggest cost, if someone asks me what costs me the most, is my time, which I spend maintaining these projects. It costs me every minute of my life that I can't get back and I'm happy when I'm in Africa and see these happy children. The children that you get to see every day, hug them, and yes, you may be poor, but you have something very special, the love of your children. That's why it's sometimes better for me to be poorer and have people around me than to have everything you want and still have nothing except work.
Please try to understand and hopefully get well and God bless you all🫶🏾🙏🏾
