THE JOURNEY

My journey has been an easy one! Why? Because I made very difficult decisions despite fear of failure. Really! Born to uneducated parents was a tough decision… Being sent to school by grandpa was an intentional thoughtful decision. Was I even prepared to be educated? No. did I even know why I had to be sent away to school? I can guess! To get disciplined. As stubborn as I was, what use was I to home if not given out to society. Was it a fair punishment? I thought I could have been a successful cowboy in Meteu – my home – just like my cousins. The cow milk made them strong and the bush meat was sumptuous.

I bet you could not imagine I actually feared the 4 walls of the classroom. Is it fair to be punished in class for the wrong of others. I wish I could run away but nowhere to go. The initial plan of discipline in education was successful. I had a complete system format and fresh application installment. A time of rebirth dawned on me as I began to redefine a new future, new destiny, and a fulfilling passion.

The inspiration from my peers and teachers was so strong. This made me took my studies more seriously. The little perks of awards and praises accrued from my ‘little’ wins flamed my desire to be among the best and be the best. To be fair, I never dreamed. Yes! What you see today are the dreams unfolding with my eyes widely opened and ‘not closed’. Yeah! This doesn’t make sense. It is not a story. It is what is it.

Let’s keep it fun-jolly-cool…hahaaa
