My Dark Tunnel 1



Its well said that there is light at the end of the tunnel, but then they failed to describe to what length the tunnel can be.

Don't blame me if I seem to blab or talk too much, it's just as though my tunnel doesn't have an end or maybe I am not seeing any glimpse of light at the end of this tunnel of mine.

Like every other child I was born but like few others I found myself being the only child of my parent. They were quite loving I must confess as they gave all I needed for a good life and some i never had a need for yet was within reach.

As i got to grow, all i could see was myself in a lab coat with a white stethoscope around my neck. At least that was a source of happiness in view. So I had to give my all for it.  Not so easy but surely was worth it.

Here it was, falling on the palms of my hands like a meal prepared on a golden dish and all that was left was if I could consume what I had till the end. No one seemed to be happier than I was as I journeyed on this avalanche of happiness. My future now in my presence. As usual arrangements were made to achieve this aspiration turned reality of mine. Dad couldn't be happier seeing a direct replica of him and mum finally having her only daughter following the family line.

With me being the center of attraction I have my best to being top of the class. Making friends wasn't my game in the first place I was just an introvert. First year came and the second didn't hesitate as I stepped up my game to ensuring I wasn't just one of those but one out of all..

In no time anyone and everyone became friends with me as I became a trend without an hashtag. Many arranged for discussion classes with me. At first I was reluctant but with time I enjoyed it to an extent. M.B exams came and I found I and my new set of friends topping the class. Indeed it paid off..

This continued until sometime in my fourth year when we rounded up a lecture  and as usual I and my 5 reading partners went for lunch before heading home. The last thing I remembered was we had the meal and left for our separate accommodations but suddenly I found myself on the hospital bed with Dad, Mum and my friends staring at me.

I couldn't figure out what could have led to my being there only that I felt pain on my lower abdomen of which I got inquisitive as to what brought me there....

Yes!!! It was a rape case

I was rapped... By Who, How come, Where?

To be continued next week Tuesday on truthblog17.blogspot.com

Integrity (Part 1)

   Integrity    Very popular but less functional. Integrity is simply the state of being wholesome (i.e. sound and healthy, promoting moral and mental well-being) and unimpaired (i.e. not rendered less effective). Let's do a simple mental class. Give your own definition of integrity while I give mine. STATE-BEING OF SOUND AND HEALTHINESS/WHOLESOMENESS. Integrity is taking your first bath of the previous day around 12:30 am of a new day. STATE OF UNIMPAIRED. Integrity is starting a meeting by the set time regardless the number of people present so as to be able to meet the set closing time of that meeting On the other hand, Integrity is doing the right thing at the right time in the right place with the right materials with or without the right people to watch, supervise or judge. Are you a being of integrity? Do you keep to you words? Have you a firm Yes and a solid No? Do you compromise a little bit? Do you bend your values and standards to please oth...

Love Language

Love Language This is the way of expressing one's love feelings towards one's family, friend, spouse, girlfriend, or any other loved one Primary Language of Love: I refer to this as the best preferred way or act to express one's love to another person. Major Love Languages are: 1. Words of affirmation 2. Giving of gifts 3. Acts of service 4. Quality time 5. Physical touch All humans have one or more of the 5 major Love Languages as part of their attribute. They show it unconsciously to everyone they get closely related to. Most people don't know their Love Languages and that's part of the reasons they have interpersonal problems relating among friends, associates, colleagues, families etc. Love Languages aren't only for people sexually related or people in love but exist among friends and family. It is the way you presently relate with siblings, families and friends that you most likely extend to that soul mate of yours. Some people don't s...
