I know kwabena very well. He was from a rich family. His parents were both doing owning companies, as the only child of his parents, he lacked nothing.
Some good aspect about kwabena was that people in his community admired him so much. He did not allow the wealth of his parents make him proud or disrespectful.
He showed respect to both young and old and the poor and rich.
Again, another interesting thing about him is that there is nowhere you will send him and that he will not go. Once he knows the place, he goes without grumbling. That helped him in making many friends. In the house, though there was a house help, kwabena insisted on doing the household chores. He wanted to learn how to do everything so that in future when he is alone he will not encounter any difficulties.
However, unfortunately for him his parents died through accident which changed kwabena`s life. After the funeral her auntie took care of him. He was not financially sound and he was unable to pay his school fees. Kwabena therefore, found himself at home most of the time.
One day, he sat weeping under a huge mango tree after he has been sacked for his school fees. A prominent doctor kwabena has helped when he was not a doctor, was passing by when he saw kwabena and quickly went to his aid.
The doctor gave him money to pay his school fees. When kwabena got home he told his auntie about the money. His auntie did not believe him, but rather insisted he had the money from his sugar mummy since it was a huge sum of money. She beat him and threw him out of her house.
Moreover, kwabena had no option, but to go to the doctor's house and narrate his ordeal to him. There and then, the doctor asked kwabena to stay with him and kwabena complied with the doctor since, he was a hard working person. That made the doctor developed a special interest in him and sponsored his education to the university level. He pursued bachelor's degree in fine arts. He later had a scholarship to pursue a master's degree abroad.
Finally, being humble, kwabena was highly lifted up and his lifestyle became a role model for others to emulate. So further young ones let's learn to be humble and be like kwabena.
