"Many Somalis view having vocational skills as menial and degrading. Jobs such as shoemakers, barbers and blacksmiths. It's funny that in the rest of the world, people go to university to learn such skills. I never attended school, and never had the chance to. I learned this trade from my father, and he learned it from his father. I started working when I was 16, and a dear friend of mine motivated to use the skills my father taught me. Before the civil war, there was a stronger emphasis on using our own resources. For instance, they used to butter cowhides and place it under the smoke. After that, they beautified its colour with the leaves of the Galool tree and that material; we used to make shoes, purses and even belts that some people wear for more than 10 years. I hand-make shoes and belts. It's funny that the shoes that we make have much better endurability and quality than the ones they import from outside such as China, India and Italy. In a way, I'm happy that my father taught me this trade as it allowed me to never to beg. I've got a beautiful family of 7 children, and I've never begged in my entire life. The income I receive from my work is more than sufficient for them and 100% halal. If people invested in the country's homegrown talent, we could have improved our production, and we wouldn't rely on cheap imports. Not to mention that it would create lots of jobs, satisfying the needs for shoes and belts in the country."

"I used to despise marriage. I never thought I would ever get married. It all changed when I moved to Burao in 2000. I met my first wife Hodan there. I fell in love with her, but I believe you can love more than one person. My first wife encouraged me to marry, and I then met Fadumo. For over nine years, we were a happy, loving family; then I met Laki. Finally, my three wives introduced me to Bahsan who I married in 2017. It was a unique wedding. My first three wives were the bridesmaids.  I love being fair to people, and that is a quality that most people know about me. I believe that if you are just in this world, you will be rewarded in the HereAfter. We have 18 children altogether.  Our children differentiate between the different mothers and call them equally mother. Every day, I put them on a bus to school and then head to my workshop. If one my wives does the shopping, the others take care of the kids. We have such a great chemistry and teamwork, and there is no jealousy in our family. People might talk, but they can never pull our spirit down. Our happiness comes first. Whilst maintaining an automobile repair shop, I teach 40 young men how to perform mechanical work. I like to keep myself busy. I can't wait for my family to expand with grandkids."

"Guurka waan neceba, ismana odhan jirin waad guursanaysa, Kadib waxaan isbedelay markii aan u guuray magalaada Burco 2000.

"I've waited a long time for my sister to be born and now she's finally here. She's still small and growing, but I love her already. I get upset if my parents feed her without me being present as I pretend to eat too whenever she has her milk. Besides, sometimes she refuses her milk if I'm not there. Maybe because she knows I'm her big brother, or maybe she likes the comfort of watching someone whilst he she has her milk. I can't wait for her to be my age."

"Waxaan sugayey muddo dheer in gabadh walaashay ah dhalato, ugu danbayntii waa tan, weli waa ilmo yar oo koraya,  laakiin waan jecelahay. Waan dhibsada markii waalidka wax siiyaan aniga oon la joogin madaama aan iska dhigo inaal la cunteenayo markasta caanaha lasiinayo. Marmar way diidaa caanaha hadii anan anigu joogin. Malaha waxay ogtahay in aan anigu ahay walaalkeed oo ka wayn ahay, ama waxa jeceshay in qof iska daawato iyadoo caanaheeda cabays. Runti maba sugi karro in ay soo gaadho da’aydayda."
