Seeing the extent that my parents had push me up to in life, makes me want to give them more of my resources, considering the nature of their jobs and their salaries then seeing the level they have lifted me up to and the life they have given me, make me want to endorse them as my role model.

One of those days in tertiary institution, back in 2015

Because being a teacher here in my country Nigeria, isn't meaningful at all, I means you have to starve while others are eating, the salary given to teachers here are not something to appreciate anyone about, this has make me realize how they have sacrifice to get me to where I am today, I use to feel like a big man in college but now, I can see i am nothing but a young man who needed to be humble, right now I am thinking of how were they cooping with Such salaries and still afford to send me to school and pay my tuition fees.

when I was in NYSC orientation Camp, at Wannune, Tarka LGA Benue State

Yet I didn't know that while being in school, they were suffering and was still smiling at me, it is now that I have graduate a long time ago and staying at home and seeing how is life here in my country then beginning to imagine what the have gone through in given me the life they could afford to give me that is what no matter what, I said "Thank you to them" because it through them that I was nurtured and nourished and getting to a point like this is by their doing.

My passing out parade and when National certificate was given

Few days ago, Dad called me that, he wouldn't say they had not paid him his pension, he said they did pay him but the pension could not meet up his upkeep, he insisted that I boost him up, i was somehow not free at the moment but I beat up my chest and said, this duty I must carried it out, and I did send him the amount I could afford at the moment and Dad was so happy about it and he keep saying good things to me, some which i expect would have to manifest soon.

Looking up to our parents feels good and it is one of a kind feelings and what we must always have in mind as their children and knowing they are growing older everyday, we must always have it in mind that they needs us more than we need them, let be there for them and to our love ones.

Thank you so much for reading my post.
