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

We have been witnessing cleaning exercises but this one got a different grading. Heroes Nation Social Change Ambassadors did a very wonderful sanitation exercises at Ipata Market, Ilorin, Kwara State.

This activity revealed some of the heart cries of some of the marketers who marveled at the energetic, cheerful and interactive ...

YES! YOU CAN.

Why are you doubting the capacity of your ability? Why are you scared of launching the goodies in you? Making the precious stones to glitter is one of the paramount thing why we are created. Do you know that  MTN came to Nigeria at a time when nobody wanted to invest in Nigeria, at a time when Nigerians did not have phones. Even Zenith Bank refused to loan MTN cash to operate,UBA rejected MTN's offer but today see the difference. What about Cowbell? When they came to Nigeria,they made milk in a sachet, Peak was laughing at them - they said Cowbell was milk for the poor - but they were right! 3-million poor people could afford N10 a day for a sachet of milk.Oya, do the math - 3 million people buying milkat N10.00- that was N30million every single day.In a month they grossed N900million (almost N1billion).Even Peak had to make sachet milk in order to survive in the market. So what have people told you?What have they said you cannot do, or you do not qualify for, or...

I CAN

There's always a way to do everything. There's nothing named "CAN'T". Too often we fail in our efforts because we have been brought up believing that we cannot do some things. The people who change the world are people who have taken impossible out of their dictionaries. The men and women who make changes in history are those who came against the odds and believing that it's impossible for the odds to stop them. No one can determine how much you can produce except you and God. So there is nothing in this world that should stop you from accomplishing, realising, fulfilling and maximising your full potential.  If you think it, you can do it. If you can conceive it, the fact that you can conceive it means you can do it.  It doesn't matter if it's never been done. Likewise, if you never THOUGHT of it, then you can't do it. Thinking doesn't get it done alone, it also implies that you can do it. Picture yourself doing the things in your tho...
