GRASS IS NOT GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Surely marriage is an institution that has a thousand lessons. Lets take an educational journey to this institution. Before i got married, i had broken many relationships. My reason for breaking these relationships was that it was not God's will for us to marry. This had come by because just before i fully committed myself to any relationship, i would meet a"better" breed of a suitor and fall for them. After my wedding on the 13th of June 2009, i term my habit as "A LACK OF FOCUS" lifestyle. Discipline tells you everyday, "You said yesterday that she was the best girl in the world, how comes you want to change it today."
LESSONS SUMMARIZED
1. Focus
2. Have values and stick to them
3. Never commit to anything before you see the end picture
4. Always remember that what goes around always comes around.
5. Do unto others what you would like them to do to you.
6. If you make a mistake, repent, learn from it and NEVER repeat it.
7. You are a sum total of your thoughts. Believe that what you have gotten is the best and it will be so.
8. NEVER NEVER GIVE UP ON ANYONE.Don't judge individuals by the way they look today... you might be surprised at what they become tomorrow.
a Short story about my school mate and I
While in secondary school many knew me as a "bookworm" i would read everything i laid my hands on. A friend of mine called Jedidah(Now a prominent business lady), was hated by most of my friends because of her "Big Mouth". She regularly suffered battles from most of my friends. After leaving school, we were tarmacking and could not settle for casual jobs. Jedidah met her Lawyer suitor and could not hide her inheritance: A self driven prado, 5 acres of land, a house for her parents and to sum it all happiness. Jedidah is now among the highest ranked business women in Nakuru. Once in a while before i could afford a car, she would give me a lift in her prado.
In conclusion, i will echo one swahili proverb translation: learn to love as you rise up the ladder because you might need them on your way down.
God Bless
