^{Stepping out of the house}

Hello fam @steemit, how are you all doing? trust your good. Have been sick for the past few days and have been indoors, without medication because I can’t afford one. All I could afford was taking paracetamol pill, lay down and sleep. That was what I did for days till I felt a bit relieve to walk around. So on this day I was able to do few chores which washing of dishes was one of them, after that I had my bath, dressed up and stepped out.

^{I bought breakfast}

The sickness made me loose appetite for eating, but I always drink water, drink tea just to make sure something entered my stomach. So as I stepped out, I saw this bean cake also known as akara. This bean cake is made from grounded beans, the beans is grounded and the ingredients is mixed with the grounded beans then its scooped with a deep spoon and put into a hot shallow groundnut oil to fry. So that’s just a brief description of the “akara”, I bought it with bread to take as breakfast.

^{The food selling spot}

Around where I got the akara and bread there was a food selling spot where people buy cooked food to eat. Different vendors under their umbrellas with their food to sell, I saw people walking towards there to buy food. That’s actually a good way to make money, cooking food and people come around to buy. It’s a picture of exchanging service for monetary value, the spot was so busy with people going to have their breakfast. The spot is not only for breakfast, it’s also for lunch and dinner. Isn’t that nice? Yes it is because, if one can’t afford to prepare food in his/her house one can also buy with his/her money to satisfy their hunger.

^{Walking around}

I spent a lot of time outside walking around, to shake away the weakness this sickness brought upon me. I left the house early hours of the morning and returned back home in the evening towards dusk. While walking around I felt a bit better and alive again just that it showed on me that I wasn’t feeling too well. For me to walking around shows that am really getting better and I’ll become strong soon. Thank to y’all for sticking with me, I love you very much.
