Hello everyone. Welcome to my blog. Wishing you a fantastic week abead. Special thanks to @hiveghana for this week's prompts.

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to suddenly discover that your parents were secretly rich all along and never shared this fact with you? The revelation of such hidden wealth can just bring or evoke awhirlwind of emotions, ranging from surprise and confusion to disbelief and even betrayal. The impact of this discovery can be profound, reshaping one's understanding of their family dynamics and raising questions about trust, honesty, and the values passed down through generations.

Imagine growing up in a modest household, where financial struggles were a regular part of life. You were taught the value of hard work, frugality, and the importance of making ends meet. Then, out of nowhere, you stumble upon evidence that your parents have been concealing a considerable fortune from you all this time. Wowwwww.

Initially, shock and disbelief may be the dominant emotions. You might find it hard to reconcile the image of your parents as struggling individuals with the reality of their hidden wealth. Questions will flood your mind: Why did they keep this secret? What else have they been hiding? Can I trust them? The sense of betrayal can be overwhelming, as the foundation of trust upon which your relationship with your parents was built is suddenly shaken.

As the initial shock subsides, other emotions may surface. Feelings of confusion and uncertainty about your own identity and values may arise. The very principles and beliefs that you thought defined your family may now seem called into question. Were the lessons of financial responsibility and humility that you were taught mere facades to conceal a greater truth? The discovery of hidden wealth can challenge your sense of self and force you to reevaluate your understanding of your family's history and values.

Now to how I will feel. The first thing I know will come out of my mouth is "wowwwww". I'll feel so bad because I know what I've faced as a child with no much money at home, from being sent home because of fees to going hungry for almost a day and then boom, I come discover my parents have money.

I'll be confused as to why they will want to hide their true identity, I might understand if it was to people outside alone. But to their children, noooooo. And why I should feel so that way is because I've gone through a lot the past years, endured a lot, been deprived of some things I was supposed to have as a child but I held myself just to know there's wealth sitting pretty somewhere.

The sense of missed potential and lost trust can be deeply unsettling, and this might create a rift in my relationship with my parents and I might take time to heal.

Lastly, the revelation of hidden wealth within my family can trigger a complex array of emotions, from shock and disbelief to confusion, betrayal, and resentment. It might make me confront not only the reality of my parents' secret but also my own beliefs, values, and sense of trust. While the discovery may challenge my understanding of my family dynamics, it also presents an opportunity for growth, and ultimately, reconciliation.
