Topics: Good Old Days

Take me to the good old days, when I had few problems and all I wanted to hear and actually pay attention to were God-related issues, unconcerned with what was going on in the world, when we all wait outside every night to listen to stories from our uncles and aunties and also playing hide and seek at night.

Take me back to the good old days, when I was a young teenager, I obviously didn't care what other people thought of me since they weren't feeding or supporting me or giving me allowances, back to the days we didn't have to worry about getting kidnapped by terrorists because we were safe throughout in every city corners.

Take me back to the good old days, when I don't have to impress or persuade someone in order to be friends with them, when friendships are built through simple activities like playing football, seeing each other every day, attending same church or same school, unlike now that you have to be rich or reach some certain levels before people can be friends with you.

Take me back to the good old days, when you're in need of help and people are always willing to help you and not gaining anything In return and also the days when you have genuine friends that never for once criticize you and all they ever want is for all of us to succeed.

Take me back to the good old days, when life was much easier and there were a lot of job opportunities in towns for people looking for jobs, days when people life were safe while walking down their streets at night, days when everyone could afford whatever they want, days when we don't discriminate the less fortunate.

Take me back to the good old days, when life wasn't based on your body count with the opposite partner, when you don't have to be affluent to be friends or in be in a relationship, when most of us had sense of morality and didn't build our lives and fortunes by defrauding others, when the vast majority of choices available to us were lawful.

Take me back to the good old days, when we sleep with our doors open and when we trust our neighbors with our children when we are not around, when we are not scared to receive gifts from our neighbors and they themselves aren't scared to receive gifts from us.

Take me back to the good old days, when Nigeria national team were all at their prime and the most feared national team Brazil trembles when they face Nigeria at any competition, days when Nigeria was still the giant of Africa at everything we get ourselves involved with, to the good old days when Nigeria was really under a great leader that want the best for his country and her people, to the good old days when we travel abroad and always want to come back to our country after retirement and invest in the country.

Take me back to the good old days, where there was nothing like expensive education when all people can afford going to school, when certificate means a lot and when you don't need 10 years experience after which you just graduated from college.

Take me back to the good old days, When Nigeria was a better country, when the rate of illicit activities was significantly lower, when drug misuse was not as prevalent as of today, When innocent people were not killed just because of what they believe in, and occultists who used human beings as sacrifices were not prominent.

The good old days, when we had enough to talk about, stories to tell, fond recollections and our loved ones were still here. THE GOOD OLD DAYS.

Thanks for reading πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–

That has always been everyone's prayer, but as it's I don't think things would return back to how it was in the olden days, things has really spoil and corruption and money laundering has bring down the value of the olden days. All we need to do is just to take it into God's hand in prayer, He is the only one that can change our world for good. No new leader can do it except God

You're right friend, their focus and their own target is to steal their own, they see the opportunity as their own turn to steal and revenge rather than trying to do the right thing.
