RIGHT GIVING

I'm sure someone is asking if there is anything like 'right giving', like should there ever be a situation where you find your self in a position to give and you don't give? Well, I think there are such situations and I will get to that shortly. Growing up, I learnt to be a 'cheerful giver'. This I learnt from my mum who could give her last kobo to even a stranger. So I can say that the i learnt the act of giving from her.  But proceeding into university, precisely my second year, everything changed.  I remember even before I entered uni, my brother told me that a time would come when I would not like giving and I laughed and said it couldn't be possible, but alas, it came to pass.  The university is a place where u get to meet a lot of different people with different upbringings. And yes I met  different people with different approaches to life.  One thing I had also learnt from my parents was to be independent and never depend on anybody....

THE RIGHT MINDSET

So one day, I was going through status updates on WhatsApp and I came across a post by someone I knew from university and this was what she wrote:  wrote: “Someone should do my sub for me na 😭😭😭. What kind of friends do I have sef 😥😥😥😥”. Honestly I was triggered, like what the hell... could never be me tho.. lol 😂... mehn I pity her friends.  This further reminded me of one time in school, during chapel service, the chaplain was praying and then declared that God will provide for us so much that we will be buying meals for our friends and doing other things for people. The way I screamed amen ehn. In my mind I wanted to be the one that will have so much that will in turn be blessing others. So you can imagine the utter shock I felt when after the service a course mate of mine came to meet me and others to ‘book’ herself as one of the people that we will be buying meals for (after God provides). Can you just imagine, when you should be praying to be a blessing...

It feels like twas just a few years ago I celebrated my 10th birthday, it feels like yesterday that I was worried about WAEC and gaining admission to uni. It feels like a couple of days ago I was graduating from the university and thinking that life was beautiful, wow wasn't it like yesterday I was going for NYSC? I wonder how time flew and I'm 24, twenty freaking four!!  . 24 looked so grand and big a few years ago. I still get upset when I hear children call me 'aunty'. Most times I feel like telling them to chill out that I'm still my daddy's princess and my mummy's baby girl. But I can't do that cos Nigeria  . So I've digressed completely. Lol..
