NOTORIOUS FOR JESUS

During my NYSC year, I served in this village where everyone seemed to know everyone. 

One day, on my way from CDS, I was passing inside the market when one of the most influential men in the community suddenly called me aside.

He was a respected motorcycle dealer, and with a warm smile, he asked if I was in a relationship. Before I could answer, he began to tell me about his son.

The young man lived in Lagos, worked as a lecturer, and was still unmarried.

The elderly man said he had watched me from a distance for some time. He mentioned that he admired how easily I blended with the villagers despite not being an indigene. He said I carried myself with dignity and respect. Then he added that I was very beautiful.

According to him, I was exactly the kind of woman he would love to welcome into his family. I must confess, his unexpected praise left me both surprised and flattered.

For a moment, I imagined what such a meeting might look like. Yet the idea of being matched with someone I had never met made me uneasy. What if he didn't like me? What if I wasn't the kind of woman he was hoping for? Those questions lingered in my mind. Still, none of them truly mattered.

The truth was that my heart already belonged to someone else. Before NYSC even began, I already was in a serious relationship. My boyfriend was remarkably strategic. Immediately after the three-week orientation camp, he proposed and I agreed.

So when the marriage opportunity came knocking through an unexpected door, I could only smile and politely decline. Sometimes I look back and imagine that I accepted.

You for be the daughter in law of a rich motorcyle dealer...LOL

YOU AND MOTHERHOOD ARE TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE
Nobody warned me…

That motherhood could quietly erase you if you let it.
That in giving life, you might slowly start losing yours piece by piece, moment by moment until you look in the mirror and barely recognize who you used to be.
That if you don’t fight to keep yourself,
if you don’t intentionally hold on to your beauty, your identity, your essence…
it will slip away.
I will nurture my children, yes
but I will not abandon myself in the process.
Happy WCW

Its simple... dont let motherhood make you lose yourself!!!

In the begining this always happens and its OK; what is not OK is when you cannot find yourself in the midst of all the chaos of motherhood..

Hmmm that number 6 na wah...I actually wake up sometimes feeling someone that loves me staring and watching over me......Now reading it is scary!!!
