Hello lovelies, hope you all had great night, I'm supposed to write this post yesterday but in the process of creating the post, I slept off , I know it will happen because i did not have enough sleep for some days now, the highest duration of sleep I have is for 3 hours, but yesterday the sleep dealt with me bumper to bumper...lol, I can't cheat nature in have no choice but to sleep then continue from where I stopped today . Yesterday was someone tight for me in school, but notwithstanding, I still have to engage with the little time I have, Yeah, I did the little I can. immediately I came back from school some minute past 3 pm, I have to prepare what I will eat because the daughter of a man is feeling hungry... hehehehe πŸ˜†, I can't withstand the hunger anymore 😁😁, then after that, I have to solve the assignment given to us that yesterday because we'll be submitting it today. After that I dozed off , awake again this morning , but looking at the lectures I'm haveing today, I feel like crying, it will start from 8am to 6pm stretch, though some lectures might be absent.

Enough of the paparazzi, now to the main reason for this post.

The unpredictable life...

life is just like a two-sided coin, the view is showing to me is different from the view you'll be looking from. life has a different way of dealing with individual, if you have lived for years, you'll get to understand the ups and downs of life, your story will be different from others, it might be a loss of a loved one, job loss or you trying to adjust to the tough time life brings, sometimes life isn't what you want it to be, but you just have to adapt to what it brings.

what prompted me to write about this?

It was about the article written by @Olasquare titled, what's life about? , I wanted to give my response to the article yesterday but I decided to give write it as an article.

he talked about a hard time that has made him not to live the life of a footballer which he talked about going back to the past to restructure everything but can't be possible, many people Could have loved to, but life is irreversible. you can go to his post In the link above to get the whole story.

Now, my side of the story.....

hard time in life can mean different things to different people just like I've said initially, my own tough time might mean nothing to you, it's normal, but this time is a moment I will never forget. I wasn't born with a silver spoon, but we are just living like an average Nigerian. not until life dealt with us by showing us its bad side. then I was in secondary school, I was about to write my waec( examination for senior school certificate). As a 15 years old girl, I was very happy that I will be going to the university. I know before then I will be 16, but everything did not work out as I planned.

one day, ( that was 5 years back) as we are having a nice time together, my mum received an alert on her mobile phone , she could not believe what she saw, a million-plus was withdrawn from the account without her consent," how come ?" she exclaimed. She rushed to the bank to make an enquiry about the money, they tried to trace the account that was used for the fraud, but the details were untraceable, they assure her that they will try their best, but the case was later forgotten after a short period, we were brought form something to nothing...

My problem started from where I wanted to write my waec, but no money to pay since it was a private school, all efforts to get the money was fruitless, then I was left with no choice but to wait for another time. I stayed at home for 2 years, I have to work for people to meet up with something, after two years of staying at home, I've gotten enough money to pay for the examination fee. that was around #38,000($64, to God, be the glory, I passed the examination.

I thought about going to the higher institution, I have to work again to get the money for my Jamb (entrance examination to into university) but in the process, God turn our sorrow into joy, we were brought back from grass to grace through the help of my mum friend who lives abroad, God helped us through her. but I will never pray to experience such again in my lifetime.

Hard time will build you to bring out the best in you, an adage says ...what doesn't break you will make you stronger and it will give you the strength for the next time you experience a tough time in life.

There are some certain things we can't control in life which might affect our State of being in life but you can only control your reaction to the situation of things you come across. we have to make each moment count and remember that there's always something to be thankful for. Though I could not write my examination that year, I still thank God for everything, most especially for the gift of life, you can't change the past , but you'll only have to deal with the present..

thanks for your time, you too
can equally share yours with 
us in the comment section, what 
life means to you with your 
experience in life. you can as 
well make it as a post ....
all good and fine.

I cannot but appreciate my mentors, thanks for the encouragement, and may God continue to bless you all. Amen.

Whether you're rich or poor, God has given everyone a special gift in life. A poor man may have a gift that his rich friend doesn't have and his money can never buy for him.

So sorry dear. Thank God you and your family were able to pull through and weather the storm. I have always known that you were a strong and industrious lady and I really meant it when I said that in your previous article. May the good lord continue to be your strength and and keep capping all your endeavor with success.
