Kevin is a trained mechanic from Kericho, Kenya. For many years, he lived with quiet frustration. He went to school, learned his trade well, and worked harder than most people around him. Still, his life refused to move forward. While friends he grew up with bought cars, built houses, and expanded businesses, Kevin remained stuck doing small jobs that barely paid his rent. Every time he felt close to progress, something went wrong.
Kevin tried many ways to change his situation. He opened a small garage with borrowed money, but customers were few and tools kept breaking. When he partnered with someone, misunderstandings and losses followed. He closed the garage and tried casual jobs, but payments delayed or never came. Watching others succeed while he struggled affected him deeply. People began asking why he was not moving forward despite his skills, and he had no answer.
The emotional pain became heavy. Kevin started avoiding old friends because their success reminded him of his own failure. Family members encouraged him to keep trying, but inside he felt tired and embarrassed. At times, he blamed himself. Other times, he felt there was something wrong with his life that effort alone could not fix. Nights were filled with worry, and days passed with little hope.
