The Choices we made in life either leads to hope or despair.

This is a universal concept that calls for great attention but unfortunately, people tend to undermine the consequences of the choices we made in life.

Over the years we had had numerous experiences justifying this concept but the absence of the culture of daily reflection clouds our minds from learning from this concept.

Despair

John and Brown are close friends with ambition for achieving a successful life. They were very studios during their secondary education years and they all graduated with good grades. Their parents were very happy with them and promised to support them to achieve a university degree.

Both friends prepared for the university entrance examination and were so happy for gaining admission into the university and it happens that they were both living on the campus.

As time went by both friends trod different paths not forgetting the reason why they were on campus.

John became a lover boy who was almost friends with so many girls and was enjoying a fun-filled and romantic life on the campus while Brown became so close with some of his peers that became addicted to smoking and drinking and later on he joined one of the cultist's groups on the campus.

In the midst of all of the different paths been trodden by the two friends, they did not lose focus of the primary goal which is the learning process and acquiring a university degree with good grades.

John became so engrossed with the life of women, parties, and fun but it happens that he came across Rose who seems to be the woman for him.

You know the saying that there is someone for everybody. John's relationship with Rose grew to the extent that there started having a sense of getting married someday in the future.

But, again they were not patient and careful with the relationship. There were carefree while having a sexual relationship which ended with Rose getting pregnant.

Both friends became so disturbed about the pregnancy because they were not ready and the kind of family they were coming from.

They were scared of their parents and the responsibility that comes with having babies and how their education will be disrupted.

John and Rose decided to go for an abortion using the services of an inexperienced doctor who did the abortion unsuccessfully and this resulted in a serious challenge for John and Rose.

The serious and sad news of despair started from the thought of meeting the inexperienced doctor who did a poor job and the friends have to live with the consequence.

Brown on the other hand got so much involved in the life of gang and smoking and drinking that got himself into one trouble to another.

In one of the instances, he almost escapes death from the opponent gang in a Beer Palour and kept on living in fear. Always hiding from other gang members.

The choices we made in life either lead to Hope or Despair and we live with the consequences of our choices.

Brown got himself into a lot of trouble because of his gang-related activities which led to his failure in school activities.

Brown became so popular on campus that the school authorities realize he was a member of a gang which is prohibited based on the school rules.

Brown participation in school work wasn't good and he had series of carryover courses with which he was struggling.

The school authorities listed students who were to be expelled from the University and Brown and friends were on the list.

Look forward to experiences of choices made that led to Hope in my next article.
