After Secondary School..
Some of our classmates have gone out of the country,
Others have completed universities and are now
Doctors,
Engineers,
Teachers,
Pilots,
Lawyers,
Administrators, etc.
Some are married,
Some have given birth.. .
Some are dead,
(Don't forget that too)
And others are confined in psychiatric homes.
Some are running their higher degrees: Masters ,PHD, etc.
Some haven't even gained admission into the tertiary institution and might NEVER be able to.
Some own companies,
Some are now Directors and majority shareholders of huge companies.
But how do you feel
When you meet your classmate, and it seems like he/she has reached his dreams
And you're not yet close to yours?
So many thoughts runs through your mind.
How about the one you meet on the street wearing dirty rags and feeds on the refuse dumps and drinks from the gutters?
Do you get the same thoughts running through your mind?
First, you think God has not been fair to you.
But don't forget some are already dead.
Somehow it feels natural to have a feeling of jealousy for those mates who seems better off but it's really uncalled for.
There is no room for regret
We all are different
And our paths to greatness
Is not same in distance.
Some might reach before you,
Some might reach
after you
But wherever level you are presently,
Please keep trying to break limitations and move further.
Celebrate the success of others, its an application
for yours.
Your friend buys a car now,
Be happy with him/ her. Remember when you get yours,
Theirs might not be the latest again.
Life is not by competition,
If not,
We all will be born into one type of family,
One religion and same in everything.
Let the passion in you never quench the desire in you
Keep it burning.
What you pass through,
Write it down because one day the world would be ready to read it.
There's no height you cannot attain,
Just believe.
Define goals and recognize distractions.
Spend time teaching yourself,
Because the things that
Mainly take people to the top
Are the things
They devoted time to develop.
Don't be intimidated by your fellow's success,
The sky is wide enough
For birds to fly
Without touching one another.
Value the small things
That God brings
And come into our lives
And love God
And do the work of God.
For with God,
All things are possible.
Now to those who are on top,
Never forget to give a helping hand
To those who are down.
Life is full of uncertainties;
The one you pull up today
May be the one to hold your hand
To prevent you from falling down.
A piece of advice there.
May our friendship grow
From strength to strength,
From grass to grace,
From zero to zenith
And from Earth to Heaven.
WISH YOU MORE SUCCESS
IN THIS JOURNEY CALLED LIFE.
