Every Drop Count

First and Foremost, I would like to make an open apology to all who were expecting to read from Opeyanju and didn't get it. I hope u accept my apologies for my very late post.
   Now back to business. The Power supply in my hostel was out and there wasn't anybody ready to sacrifice her generator to pump water obviously twas due to the present situation on fuel scarcity. We decided to sort for further resources on how to get water to do our day to day chores. Finally, we got a tap and everyone fetched from it but on getting to my turn, it slowed down and gradually it got to DROPS, my eyes were cloudy filled with tears but I needed water urgently so I added my faith to it and remained there for the drops. I knelt down and began to think about my life watching the drops alongside. Before I knew it the tap stopped but at that point, my Jerry-Can was few liters from its bream.
   I realized that in life, it isn't about how big we start, it isn't about how rich we are neither is it about how many we have but it is about how much we are ready to put into it despite the situation on board. We are different and we are should use that opportunity to be different from every other person doing same thing with us. We have opportunities to be better, we are just too conscious of the fact that we aren't old enough perhaps ready for it. Give it a trial and be better!

APPRECIATED

It’s always a hurtful thing when we don’t feel appreciated or loved when we perform a good deed or help out in different ways that we can, especially for people we hold dear to our hearts. Funny thing is, everyone (Like God, our father) loves to be appreciated or acknowledged for a job well done or for a stitch in time that we make, and there is nothing wrong with that. In a small way we are all heroes. For us to acknowledge the work of others or the effort of friendships or any kind of relationship in our lives, we need to have an increased measure of sensitivity and a heart of gratitude. These magic words are short, simple to understand and are easy to apply but are not used as often as they should: Thank you, I love you, that’s thoughtful, Please, That’s thoughtful and I appreciate it, you did a great job; keep it up, etc. As important as words can be, nothing is more proving of your gratitude than your actions. Actions speak louder than words, you know? Another way to s...
