Hustler's Anthem!!!!

I was moved to write about this today based on the stories and people i encounter everyday having this ideology of my parents don't want me to do some certain things (especially the female child) and because of that, they loose out in so many things. Its so annoying and painful to me because this are raw untapped talents waisting and languishing.

The most recent annoying part of the story is a young lady i met yesterday who narrated an interesting story to me about how she lost a job simply because of her mother's wish. Excuse me to share her story with you.

I met this young cute beautiful lady in her early twenties yesterday as i was trying to get my transcript from school. We got talking since we both came for the same purpose. As we sat outside waiting for the lady to change our transcript to receipt to come, i bumped into an a friend who got us chatting. As the gist was going on, we had to excuse ourselves so as to achieve the purpose of our visit. After which the young lady felt free to some extent to gist me a little of her story which goes thus

While i was serving in PortHarcourt, i was posted to a school but due to the fact that i was virtually doing little or nothing, i opted to work in a car firm in the same city. As my service year was coming to an end, i applied for a job in the same company but was luckily taken because i have worked with them for some months. I was placed on a salary scale of 60,000 naira for a month with the company offering us breakfast and lunch and making sure we are comfortable. This didn't go well with my mum as she kept insisting that i should come back home before i get carried away by the lifestyle of people of that area and probably marry there. At first, she taught her mum was joking about that until the pressure was too much that she gat to carry her things back home. (Oriegwu). Even her love for Fashion was discouraged by her Mum.

Well, i felt so bitter and angry not just with her mum but with the circumstance and thinking of some parents of today. It doesn't matter what your parents think in some decisions because their are not the ones to live them for you. Always pursue your dreams. In life you must make sacrifices and for you to get something worthwhile, you must leave your comfort zone. Am not trying to encourage one to disobey ones parents oo but am trying to make you see life beyond your parents. There is still more to this life than we see. I was once like daddy this mummy that but i have come to a large extent to understand and gain my ground even doing the outrageous. I don't care what you cal me today as long as i know am on the right path and definitely, History will absolve me tomorrow.

What sacrifices have you made today? This life no easy ooo. Though it hurts today, tomorrow will definitely be better if we plan today. Never Give Up.
