So what!

So what !

So she was a cheat, slept with so many that she lost count. Aborted severally, a murderer, more gruesome than a serial-killer.

Some said she seared her heart, have her soul sold to the devil, and all that's left is nothing but the size of a weevil. However, she wasn't made that way.

She was once elegant, a piece of art mastered by God Himself, left to dazzle the naked eyes.

Her eyes shone brighter than the stars, and her smile a relief to the soul. Reaching deep to the soul, her words provided comfort -a spark of hope in the darkest places.

To the darkest parts of the world, her light shone as bright as the sun. An element compared to none.

How and when she arrived here, my head fails me still. As no aggregation of words proved enough to proof her sudden decline.

To whom do one ascribe the blame, the society? and would she ever find forgiveness in the heart of our diaries? These and more are the questions that lingers in my head.

Forgiveness, I'd say, isn't limited to the offender, it trickles down to the offendee. It's the only way to get over the shock, hurt, and the scars left by the errors of our past.

A mentor once said, “if you've not developed the capacity to forgive, you aren't ready for marriage”~ Sam Adeyemi. But I say, If you've not developed the capacity to forgive, you aren't ready for life itself. As forgiveness is a necessity to livelihood, and that more effectively.

God, through the eyes of His son -Jesus- forgave and reconciled us to Himself. Having made us Holy, unblameable, and unreproveable to Himself. [Colossians 1:22, emphases added]. How much more, in our relationship with fellow men.

So, when next you perceive your neighbour falling, ask for God's redemptive power on his behalf and inspire courage in such individual. You never know, you might be saving much more than perceived.

I live to forgive, in fact, forgiveness is one of the qualities of godliness that's conferred on me. How about you?

Greatness

"You are only as limited as you choose to be"

We seldom fail based-on our inability to apply the understanding we have of a particular task into physical use. Also, we do not often fail because we could not have done any better in succeeding, but because we were either indifferent, lacked conviction, or allowed simple distractions weigh us down. Whereby, showing little or no commitment at the point where utmost concentration was required.

It is widely said that relative opportunities come but once and i do not hold a different opinion. For indeed, huge opportunities often stick their noises right-in-front of us, but we are either blinded by our lack of conviction or pessimism.

In some of us, our fear continues to play a quick one on us, forcing us to lose hold of the thoughts which would ordinarily encourage our moving forward.
However, hidden behind these fears are abundance of chances -chances at life, glory, service, and love- waiting ti be explored outrightly.

"Courage they say makes the difference and 'the very thing that makes you different is what makes you special'".
So, i would rather we be more opened to explore something new. That way, success will chase after us pants down, without any form of appeal. That way, one would "pursue excellence and success will chase after you pants down" ~ Three Idiots.

From me to you: think differently, Act differently, and greatness will chase after you pants down.

Cheers!!!
