The challenge am grateful for
Growing up as the first child of the family with lots of siblings I had to look out for, including cousins, nephews and nieces, you could see it's nothing than a hard work 🤣🤣🤣.
After my secondary school, I had challenges getting admission into higher institution which led people and even family members giving my parents different ideas that I can't even believe and comprehend is coming from them. Many have thought that was the end of my academic journey. For good five (5) years i was looking for admission and this burden my heart alot, sometimes I will cry and just wish God can fast forward everything not knowing God was planning something big for me. During my delay, I was made to understand that "delay is not denial" it might be late but I will surely get to my destined place and with this mentality, I was able to see life on the bright side.
During the period of my 5 years of waiting, I decided to put my love and passion for human health into practice, that was when i decided to be a nurse and to the glory of God that has paved way for me alot and this reduces the criticism I was getting from friends and families. Some of my extended family will flaunt their children in higher institutions, some that has gone for service and those that are married but I never let that get to me, my dad always remind me that i am destined for greatness, that word of encouragement kept me going. After my nursing practice I decided to try schooling once again and voila!!!. Kwara State Polytechnic gave me admission in the year 2021 after the corona virus lockdown was lifted, I was so happy and joyous because i was like I can finally go to school after all the disappointment have been through.
After gotten admission, I was happy that this will silence everyone but that wasn't enough to silent them, I started hearing different kinds of comments like after everything it was polytechnic I finally got admission into and lots more, I just laugh and kept on thanking God for the one I got and this was how I was able to build myself into what I am today. I am grateful for those challenges because if I haven't been through such, I might not be able to achieve all I have achieved today.
In conclusion
Never look down on yourself, never let what they say gets to you. Plan your future and make sure you pursue your dreams to success. We are all destined for greatness and we should show the world we can do it. Today I am happy that I went through those toughtimes because it had made me stronger.
I hope you enjoy reading this and I will be expecting your comments in my box. Enjoyyyyy.
Whaoo, you must have had it rough during those time, I'm sure you're a strong lady, surly, delay isn't denial, things will get better. 😊❤
