NUESA EXCLUSIVE: The epistle of ODOGWU to the men of colours.
Our man of God,Pastor Chris, would once teach;the Choice of life we live is ours to make,so let's pick the best life. If you've got carried away with the unfamiliar saying"school na scam",then, you must not forget that the top-10 richest men in the world all possess this degree or it's equivalent.
In this episode of school life,which I employ all to read,promising that it will surely influence the reader in one way or another, Let their be X.
A certain figure called X is pictured,struggling to get a job. Finally, he get's a 8–4 job for which he is underpaid despite working really hard all day long,o! and he was also without his job satisfaction. X had to live his life half-heartedly, compromising over expensive things that he wished to buy due to his limited resources. X's parents struggle to find a suitable bride for him as no girl wants to marry the sporty-beaten and struggling X.
Last last, one girl just got trapped with X and the next,marriage. After a few years,X is blessed with a child,on a mission of"Go ye and multiply the world, X multiples the family by 3,forming a Nonet family.
Now,X is not able to afford the children the luxury that he wished to have as a child decades ago. X just passes every day, regretting and blaming himself for not working hard when he had the opportunities, and now he has to work even harder just to earn a living. All he wants now is for his children to not face the same in their future.
O!,Poverty is an abnormal illness.
Now their is this, Mr. Y across the street, going to the workplace in luxury cars. He does not even have to work as hard. He gets a handsome amount of earnings. He resides in a good environment and in a luxury house along with his family. His kids are proud of him.
Y and his home can afford any luxury they want. They do not check price tags anymore or witness Sapa and the popular market slogan of increasein price, "Dollars rise." His friends are shaa jealous of him, but he is living his life just like he wants decades ago,during formation.
Of course, everyone who is reading this story and is in their formation process must make a choice of their favourite and imaginative character they want now . No one wants to study, but everyone wants a luxurious and peaceful life. But remember, you can't achieve anything without getting out of your comfort zone,we must study to stand out as Mr. Y.
“Study when everyone is enjoying and celebrate when everyone is regretting”
The easiest way to waste your time is "REGRET."One thing is discovering your pitfalls and working towards it.Yeah,it's okay to have a Carry-over on your course,but you must work hard now to cover the shits instead of regretting. Your primary assignment in this university community is your degree,and you must prioritise your attention towards it.
The brutal truth of life is that there is no substitute for hard work, and it is proven that education is profiting. That's why our parents have moved this motion of us being here. So,let us all give our time and attention to our studies more than ever.
Either you waste your time when you have the opportunities today and regret later by working harder tomorrow, or work hard today and live rest of your life lavishly being proud of yourself,for one thing I, Ifesinachi Donald Udoka believe is "every time is timed",so let's be intentional,redeeming our vouchers daily in this community. Welcome back to school.
