_______________
I’m 34 years of age, and never will I be expecting my period again this month. It’s  been a long waiting month for me. Oh! No, not again.

My monthly period came and I was quite distraught because it was few days late and I had started to think – possibly my baby’s here!

I was awfully disappointed and I began to talk to God asking him questions ” you know I hate this, I didn’t expect to be seeing it again” WHY NOW?

I ended up feeling pretty low; wallowing in self-pity, I grabbed the dailies- anything to distract me.

People have died, babies born and couldn’t survive, many marry without a child, some graduated but no job. All these were different kind of thought that grew my mind.

I needed something to comfort myself with, not to look down on myself too much.

I try seeing the other side of things, what others passed through in life. So, I continue counting!

People lose their loved ones each day, people ve been kidnapped, sacked from work, sickness, devours and life time in prison.

After counting to know that it was endless, I was relieved and I said to myself. ” If only seeing period when you were expecting a child, you asked God questions, how about these ones that passed through what you’ve just counted”.

I quickly returned to God and pleaded with him because my problem has made me known the other side of life.

__________ You may be putting blame on yourself as to “have not make it in life. My mates are married but I’m yet to . My mates are working but nothing good has come my way”.

These thoughts may come your way just to make you talk-down on yourself.

It is natural. But, have you also count the goodness of God that you’ve Merited?
Have you checked on the next door to know what they are passing through?
Haven’t you seen a rich man cry before?

All you need to know Is “Life can’t favour everyone” but if have the opportunity to live it, live happily because those you make reference to are also somewhere referring you to their own predicament.

They are even praying to have peace like you do.
Life is beyond having just “MONEY”. YOU can have it and lack PEACE.

Nothing worth dying for. Feel happy and live on.
