The Scar

When I was younger we had this game we usually played called 'Morji'. You will close your eyes and put your arm on the shoulder of another and allow him direct you.

Jimmy was my childhood friend and I usually played the game with him.
But something happened one day. After I had successfully led him round and round, it was my turn to be led.
Jimmy do close his eyes sometimes but not always just to make sure I was leading him on the right path.

I closed my eyes firmly and he led me to a big gutter demarcated by concrete; and he beckoned on me to come.


On the opposite I was usually closed my eyes because I trusted him.


So I innocently advanced my movement and found myself afterwards in a pool of blood flowing from my jaw.

I am grown up now, and till today I still have the scar beneath my jaw.

             That day I learnt this;

📌# No matter how innocent you are; it doesn't stop people from hurting you.

📌📌## People who hurt you the more are those you trust the most.


📌📌 📌### Best friends and REAL friends are two different things.

A short story 2

......................noticed that he didn't know the person, but he supposed  the person  had seen him raise a dead and that was why he was calling unto him. The man came closer and greeted the man of God, and he said to him " Sir, I was there when you raised a dead child some moment ago, tell me sir how were you able to do such a thing?". The man of God smiled and said to him ;  If you can trust in God, raising a dead body would be possible. The man asked curiously; Sir is that all?. The man of God answered "Yes that's all". The man was not convinced and so he decided to follow the man of God. He said he didn't believe that was possible because the dead he raised was just a child and it doesn't seem so difficult to do. On their way going, an ambulance was passing, and it was carrying a man who just died in a car accident.The man of God beckoned on the driver to stop and he asked what was wrong, the driver of the ambulance explained in details t...

Impatience 1

 Obviously, the way the days are going, it shows that nothing really entail stagnation anymore especially in such a world that is full of some many things occurring and happening in a Jeff. Everything needs responds; there is a phone call it needs responds from the receiver otherwise the caller either continue calling or at once looses patient and start complaining why he or she is not picking up the call. You sent a proposal you need response  instantly, you apply for something you need an immediate response it could possibly be that the time you were given seem too elongated to you and so you prefer to use another method or way.     To an extent, impatience has taken over many things and over the personality of many people. And that is why there are kites of regrets obviously noticed flying up and down in their lives daily.           REASONS FOR IMPATIENCE  •Comparison have had a great effect on peoples lives and has being one of th...

Negligence 2.

 "Sharpen?". I had no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut trees....             WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT, Some of us our lives are like that of the woodcutter. We sometimes get so busy that we don't take time to sharpen the " axe". In today's world, it seems that everyone is busier than ever, but less happy that ever. Why is that?. Could it be that we have forgotten how to stay 'sharpened'?. There is nothing wrong with activity and hard work. But we should not get so busy that we neglect the truly important things in life; like our personal life, taking time to get close to our creator, giving more time for family, create time to honestly rest and sleep, taking time to read etc. We all need need time to relax. Think and mediate, to learn and grow.  If we don't take the time to sharpen the "axe", we will become dull and loss our effectiveness even without knowing. So start sharpening today, You know ...
