I was confused as to what title to give my post for today but just decided to use this.
For the past three days, I haven't written an article for the past four days, this is as a result of so many things that surrounds me, I just didn't feel like writing my own article. I only read, upvote and comment on people's article.
My National Youth Service Corps took a new turn
I often hear that;
"when you go through difficult experiences it could be the makings of the strongest and most resilient relationships one could ever have"
Disappointment sometimes can be a very tricky emotion to deal with because every day might decide to bring about a new situation which one would be disappointed over.
Okay so, I've been planning for my service for a while now.
I graduated from the University since 2019 and was supposed to go for the one year mandatory service by 2020, but the Covid-19 pandemic altered my going.
It was postponed till this year 2021.
Around March we were called for service but I couldn't register because I applied for Nysc internship at Flutterwave, one of the leading Fintech companies.
Almost all my friends went with the batch, but since I knew there would be an opportunity for me to serve in Flutterwave, I wasn't bothered.
I was Disappointed
Flutterwave disappointed me, they refused to get back to me after the interview. I sent mails which they didn't reply, until recently when I got a message from then that they were done hiring, I was so angry.
If I had known I'd be Disappointed, I would have gone for the previous batch with my colleagues.
Well I decided not to mind the disappointment. I went ahead to register, and worked on being posted to Lagos, a state in Nigeria known for its wide range of job opportunities.
I felt this will be a compensation for the Flutterwave job I missed.
Well, just as I said above my expectations were once again taunted. I was posted to the south. I do not know anyone here and I do not even see my self serving there. So painful 💔😢😫
I was asked to resume on 30th of this month(July)
Still Skeptical about going though.
Sometimes disappointments might come very rapidly
Sometimes disappointments might be very huge and could be life changing.
"When you get bad news, take a moment to let it sink in," says Tina Gilbertson, LPC, DCC, psychotherapist and author of Constructive Wallowing: How to Beat Bad Feelings by Letting Yourself Have Them
Many people will successfully work through their disappointments and get over it as fast as it came.
In any way possible, they have the strength to take note of what happened to them, try as much as possible to learn from the incident, and then move on.
They come out of such disappointments waxing stronger.
We should learn more about how to manage our disappointments effectively
I decided that life is good. It is a very daring adventure and should be taken one day at a time.
Relax, do not trouble yourself worrying and wallowing in self pity after being disappointed.
Move on, there's still a way out.
As regards my NYSC posting, I'm still pushing my buttons, hoping there's something I can do about the state I'm posted to. But if it still doesn't work, then all road leads to the south. I'll gist you.

I don't understand the ip-address issue well enough.
Please I don't know if anyone knows about this ip-address issue, we want to tell more people about BCH and most importantly readcash and noisecash, if the site recognizes ip-address, does that mean I can't invite anyone from within my area to join the community?
I'm confused.
Sorry, I do not know much about IP addresses. Congratulations with your new sponsors. 😊 disappointments. Oh sad. I do not like that word because I felt and feel that I am my parents' biggest disappointment.
