 2017 Struggles { That Adejoke's Story}

The struggles were too much for her to bear alone, she wanted her story to change but as much as she tried, nothing was happening. She could move no further. She decided to try her hands on some buying and selling but that wasn't enough though it gave her money to fund a lot of things. Money came through but she wasn't happy. 'Would you try this one or try that?' she laid her hands on every possible thing she could find. 'I don't want to be seen as an unserious person, I know where my mates are at least if she doesn't remind herself, some people will remind her or social media will remind her' Dara is in America on scholarship, Nkechi works with a Multinational company, Fumi is a technocrat and she is earning lots of money'. Adejoke what is happening?
 That was what her Bestie asked her when she came over. At least, she has someone she could confide in. As they discussed her Bestie mentioned something that brought light to her world. She said, 'Joks Girl,  What are you seeing for yourself, and how do you see yourself'... ''I have never heard such a question in my entire life. I have listened and read so many books but nothing struck me the way my bestie said those words. There! I knew what happened to me. I wanted life to give me Gold I didn't know I was to demand my Gold.''

Some had it easy you will say but They saw something, let me reply you. They saw what you didn't see.They saw hope and walked in the path of Hope. Adejoke discovered that for her to win, she will have to See Hope where no one saw it, no matter how difficult it was for her to see it . That's how the opportunities will come knocking, that's how they will call her name and that's how she would be among the best. It's more than money but Money is important so what did you do? I asked Adejoke and here is what she shared with me.

I have decided to see a future In Me.
I have decided to fight for my rights
I have decided to open the doors shut at me and try new ones
I have decided to Love me and see what I haven't seen in a while
I have decided to keep them from asking about me.
I have decided to handle my life and set my goals
I have decided to Learn, Relearn and Unlearn
I have decided to Work like a King and Move like a Priest.

This I learnt and I will do in 2018. 2017 beat me yeah, But I am ready to get all I lost and Ride 2018 like a Horse! Join me on this ride. Self pity isn't the answer.

Cheers to a Wonder Moving Year!

   Monday Blues....         Letter to the Man in charge Excuse me sir,  I hope your day is going on well even though mine isn't and the reason? I will certainly share with you. Let me ask you some questions, I don't need to be all care and friendly because this is a serious matter at hand. Do you drive? Does your car run on water or on Fuel? Please I need sincere answers sir!. It's pathetic that I have to stay on an unending queue to get fuel to run my car knowing that we have no special reserves to take us out on monday. Maybe car makers should start making three to four fuel tanks for some cars coming to some countries e.g Nigeria. I am so fed up of the way things are done in this country. They told us that we have Oil and we still suffer for what we have, are you sure those that discovered these things discovered well? I am sick and tired of speculations if we sincerely have, how come we suffer so much to own what we have? Who else is in ...
