THE JOURNEY OF LIFE


Episode 25

David grew up and he became addicted to stealing but it wasn't his fault, it was a spiritual arrow. Mr and Mrs Alabi were too busy as they forgot their roles and impact in the lives of the children.

Mrs Alabi screamed and everyone in the office, kept looking at her. She picked her bag and ran out of the office like a mad woman. She got to David's school and barged into the principal office without knocking.

“Good afternoon sir.I am David's mother” she said. “Oh, you are the one who gave birth to a thief that wanted to tarnish the school image. Madam, what have you been doing? Do you even pray for your children everyday? What foundation did you lay down for them? Bible says train up your child in the ways of the Lord, that when he grow up, he shall not depart from it. So which way are you training him? He said. “No!!! My son is not a thief and please where is he? She asked, ignoring the other questions. “Your son should be at home, the school bus left not quite long ” He replied. “Thank you sir ” she said as she left the school premises.

She brought out her key and opened the door. “David, David, David ” she shouted. “MA!!! ” he answered looking down. “Why are you facing down? Look at me. Oooh, you knew what you did abi? She said and did not allow him speak before she started beating him. “You won't kill me, I did not kill my mother. You allowed your principal to insult me ” she said as she continued to beat him.

“Mummy!!! David shouted and Mrs Alabi turned around to check who called her but she didn't see anybody. She became frightened and looked at David. “Did you just shout at me? She asked. “Yes I did because you won't listen. You don't care to hear what I had to say. Did you believe I did it? Answer me mom” he said. Mrs Alabi broke down in tears as she became confused, not knowing what to say.

“Answer me mom” he said again. “I don't know what to say ” she said. This time, she had to bear her cross alone as mama was not around to help her. Tolani who was sitting in a corner, couldn't stop crying, seeing her mother's tears. She sneaked out of her hidden zone to check David, since he ran into his room. David was crying, he didn't understand how it happened he couldn't just stop crying. Tolani cried more when she saw David's tear flowing down like a river.

“Where are they, those useless son and mother ” Mr Alabi shouted as he got down from his car

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
