Disappointment as a blessing
I won't lie, today Monday is really stressful and I never signed up for this stress, lol, I woke up like everyone else by His grace and I couldn't leave my bed because I was so weak to do so, I just opened my eyes and started to calculate the gadgets I need and the money that will be enough to buy it, even though I don't have the money yet, I have to make use of my time by doing some calculations, after doing the addition, I got up from the bed and went to take my bath since the money I need to buy it won't just fall from heaven as it uses to in the Bible days.
I had a long day in the office and thank God I am at home now, it wasn't easy but we made it through Monday, some people say is only Monday that 32hours, lol, like it's just too long and I agree now, enough of my day talk, from the topic you will get where I'm coming from and after you are done reading it you will get where I am going to, so without wasting your time, let's go.
Have you ever been disappointed by someone or something, you felt down because you never expected it from the person that disappointed you, then later you got to realize that the disappointment it’s a Blessing when you looked at it from another angle or perhaps perspective, well, I'm kind of used to getting disappointed by others that’s the most reason I’m working to look up to myself for anything not only money because I hate putting my hope on one person.
A few months back, I wrote a song, it's kind of a sad song though and I have been planning to record it, I forwarded the beat to my friend to write a verse on it so the both of us will be in the song, he wrote his verse and sent me a sample, I like it, I have already written my verse and the chorus of the song, but I was looking for a female vocalist that will sing the chorus, not that I can't sing it myself though, but based on the story that the song tells, a female vocal should be in the chorus.
I have this neighbor that loves to sing, every time I always see her with earpiece singing and I decided to approach her, I asked her if she's into music and she said yes though she hasn't recorded any studio work yet, I asked her for her Whatsapp number so we can talk more and she gave me, we were chatting and I asked her the kind of song she loves and she said America songs, I said okay, luckily for me the song that I wanted a female vocal on is like an America song too, I told her about the song, forwarded the beat and the chorus I wrote to her, she said she can’t fit it in that I should sing it with voice note, which I did, but she still didn’t get it so she told me that she will write her own chorus, which I was even happy though. Days went by and months passed by, but she didn’t give me feedback, I chatted with her and she said she was busy with work, I waited, she said I should forward the beat to her again which I did, I wanted for months again and asked her but she was still saying the same thing, I decided not to ask her again, remember that angel I told you guys that she visited the studio, I played the beat for her and show her the lyrics if she can do it, she is not much of a writer though, she's only a singer that loves to do cover for songs, when I played the beat for her she said she likes it that I should call her when I'm ready, I called her two weeks back and she said she was busy, I called again and she came after the power went off, I just relaxed and told her that maybe next time I will call her when I'm chanced, I chatted her on Whatsapp if she has reheard the chorus because she was kind of finding it too difficult before, she said no that she's busy with some things, I said okay (because I nor get the money that's why you dey do me like this) just yesterday Sunday when I got a call from some special people as I wrote on the article, they are sisters that sings together and they also write their songs, I was recording a song for them as a token for showing up when one of my friends call them for backup and they came without giving excuses like I am busy, lol, after they were done recording the song, I quickly played the beat of my song that I needed a female vocalist and I asked the elder one to quickly voice it before they leave, which she agreed, she voiced the first chorus that is at the intro but she couldn't voice the middle chorus because its kinda high pitch thing and she doesn't like to go high in pitch, she told her other sister to do it which she did perfectly and TBH (To Be Honest) they did it more than what I expected, they used my lyrics but made it to sound better than what I was hoping for, I am so happy that those previous two I told about the song before disappointed, because I know they won't have done it like this.
Conclusion
Sometimes we keep looking back on how things would have turned out and we didn't bother to look front on how God wants it to be, disappointment becomes a blessing when we look at it from the bright side instead of feeling sad for ourselves on what didn't work out and we end up losing the better days ahead, humans always disappoint and it's one thing everyone should have to understand, that's why I don't like inputting my hope in people, I do disappoint people too, lol, but my kind of disappointment it's not keeping up to time as I will you that I will do it and deliver it today, but if you don't keep reminding me about it, I will just leave it there and do it anytime I feel like to do something, lol, not that I love disappointing it though, but I like taking my time I'm everything I do so my head will be open for more ideas to come in.
It's true, "every" disappointment is a blessing, that's why I don't feel it much when I'm disappointed, I take it as it's leading me to somewhere good. When I look back and see the few times I failed in high school, I smile because if those failure never came, I wouldn't have met some important people in my life today
