In the lengthy post, Simphiwe shared after losing her husband Dumi Masilela following an attempted hijacking in 2017, she was left with nothing. She said in part; “3 years ago I became a 27yr old Widow. My husband passed away 2months after our wedding (with no life insurance) and I was left with nothing. I didn’t have a job and I was left with a car that he was murdered in. My family was all I had. I remember posting a picture of me at the beach with my family and people talking about how I’m spending my late husband’s insurance money (which I didn’t have) and Wishing I actually had it.”
She continued; “I promised myself that I would work so hard that when people look at me they would actually think that I did get that insurance money. Mission accomplished.moral of the story, people will always talk, don’t let what they say hurt you or get you down. Use it as motivation to become a better person and to achieve your goals. Before you judge a widow for moving on, wether it be buying a new house, a car or falling inlove again just be glad she’s moving at all.”
On celebrating her big achievement, she shared; “Today I choose to celebrate my goals because for the longest time, achieving something was a relief and not a celebration.”
