Whatever you do today, do it well. There is a Yoruba adage that says if you throw a stone into the market place, it would meet one of your relatives. This might sound funny, but in the real sense, I term it to mean "you surely reap what you sow" you can't plant a mango tree and reap onions... I don't think so.
Just a short story to back up my title. One good turn deserves another.
There lives a young man who is also a student of knowledge. As a student, he was headed over to a guardian who would monitor and guide him to t he right path. His feeding allowance had been ppp seegiven to his so-called gpuardian, he has to meet with the guardian before he takes any meal. But fortunately, his guardian would always deny him of his feeding allowance most of the time because he had spent it. He did this several times that the young man had no choice but to stop meeting him for the money again yet he keeps receiving and spending.
Gradually, this young man had ended his study and have to furthermore in life. No more allowances paid over any guardian. He is now on his own and with God so good he had his job to become an ambassador to a foreign country. He is now rich and also had powerful connections overseas. I think it's time to pay back all his helpers who had been so kind to him or maybe take some act of revenge on those who were so cruel to him.
I am saying this once again. If you are doing good always keep it up and if you are the other way round you can continue. Remember all you are doing today would surely become a story tomorrow.
This young ambassador decided to pay back to those who had been so kindhearted towards him. Would he choose his guardian??. Hmm.
He got a slot to send someone to work abroad. Then he decided to give the slot to a woman living adjacent to his guardian house back then. What has this woman done to deserve all these?.
Every time his guardian denies him his feeding allowances, this woman would meet him alone crying. She would call him in ad feed him with the little she had on her and also give him some money to replace the one he was denied. She had been doing this for him that it had turned an obligation on her. She took him in cared for him and always make him happy.
She never expected him to be one who he was today. He had a rough journey but she kept it simple and easier for him. This was the little help she had done for the young man which she never expected anything in return. He never forgot his helper and decided to payback. He covered every expense that's could cost her child to work abroad and made it successful for him. Her poor child who had been seeking a job for years now got so lucky.
Should we call this luck or a result of having a good heart??.
Remember if you raised a child who was about to fall or you saw the child falling then you decided to make it quick. No one would tell what the future holds for you. Whichever side you take always remember you won't be the only reaping, but your generations to come...
This story is non-fictional. It was narrated to me by my father.
Take a moral to learn a lesson from it and thanks me later.
IT IS NOT GOOD-BYE BUT SEE YOU AGAIN 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
