DEAR READER,
Welcome to the most celebrated season of the year. A season everyone celebrates. For Christians, the joy of Christmas engulfs them. For others, the ending of a year and the great anticipation of a new year is quite thrilling.
From January to December you have fought a good fight.
First, you made so many resolutions with a great determination to see them through. A week after, you gave in. Then you re-resolved but this time it lasted only two days. You relapsed. But that is not weakness, the joy of Xmas and the hopeful anticipation of a virgin year are quite intoxicating.
But throughout the year, you have fought a good fight.
In the cold, in the rain and under the scorching heat of our tropical sun you labored for bread. In some days, you got a full loaf, some days paid you with half loaf. In some you got a few slice. Some rueful days offered no slice in return for your labor. In fact, some days even demanded some slices from you. However, you labored on.
The economy went into recession and you had to re-strategize. Your favorite carbohydrate increase by 100% in cost. Tomato prices tripled and meat became a diet for the rich. Iya Ibeji's food reduced significantly in size and you had to pay the same amount for this 'half chop'. Worst still, the company you worked for downsized and you were among the workers laid off. Jobless and your landlord gave you a quit notice. At least you had another three months before you exit his house. But Ginika was just wicked. A girl you have dated for 3yrs and made sure she lacked nothing just left you without a quit notice. George just came back from London and by next week according to the invitation which you read on Facebook: GINIKA WEDS GEORGE. RSVP. Your life's shattered.
Disappointments abound but you have survived till this day, this December.
You are a warrior and a survivor. Defeated on some grounds but you have recovered well and achieved De' Feat. Ride on bro. Step by step you will keep improving. There's always a light at the end of the tunnel. And even if the light cometh from a train, board the train and your next stop will be that the table of success.
Please don't try to impress another Ginika this December. There is a perfect lady for you soon and her name is not even Ginika. Concentrate on your own farm and harvest your produce. Don't attempt to steal or make use of another's cucumber. It can lead to blackmail, jungle justice and injustice.
Living till this moment is enough achievement. Do not listen to Curtis Jackson (50 Cent) who asked you to GET RICH OR DIE TRYING. There's no honour in being on the deathrow. There's no sympathy in Asia for drug trafficking.
Have the best of the season. It is a season of giving. Give and you shall be given.
Thank you

ReplyDeleteThen you face the Priest or Pastor and say carry on, I am in the wrong wedding. No harm intended.
