The Beauty of each Morning

A couple of people wake up the next morning, not wanting to get out of bed probably, cursing each moment! Probably because they have no jobs, or they feel frustrated bout what's going on in their lives, because they should have been married, or a worrisome relationship or friend! Forgetting the most important thing "the beauty of each morning" waking up to a new day, new hope, forgetting that there's still hope, not noticing the chances, hopes and possibilities that come with each morning! For every morning I wake up! Whether or not I have 200naira in my wallet, whether or not its certain what's going to happen that day, something around me reminds me that I am privileged, The fact that I'm able to see a new day, only gives me the reassurance that my situation can still change!
There are many nights when I want to go to bed and I pray inside, I first beg God to make me see the next day, and conclude my prayers by saying that if its his will that I should not see the next day,then he should forgive all my sins! Yeah its a scam, lol! So for someone like me to wake up the next morning! Chei you don't know how much it means to me!
Let me use this morning as an example, October 06 2010 7:45am, I woke up (not saying any prayers) went to pee, then I picked up my Blackberry( yea I am an addict) checked my bbm's (black berry messages) my twitter timeline, and posted a tweet on twitter that read "I have a very big God" I saw some facebook notifications, my cousin had dropped a comment on one of my pictures, haven't seen or heard from him in 16years, I didn't know when I started laughing out loud! Why?? Kai I remember him very well, Trust?? Tiny Trust lwkmd (laugh won kill me die) roflmao (rolling on the floor laughing my a** out)He used to play with saliva when we were growing up, that was his weapon of mass destruction, lol! So when he looks for trouble and he doesn't want me to retaliate or beat him up, he'll just pour it on his palm and threaten me with it, eeeeeeeew! He has grown (well we all have), I went through his pictures to update the memory I had of him!
Then I began to appreciate what it takes to see the next morning, the many years I have spent on earth, how far I have come though I haven't gotten to where I am heading to, but then I have made it this far not by my power nor by might , so why nag and worry and bother my head over some certain issues? Yea its only normal to Think, but worrying??? Lai lai, I refuse to be worried! its a beautiful wednesday morning! And I appreciate the Beauty of each morning! Every morning till God says its enough . . .like I always tell my family and friends whatever we are going through "a ma waa alrigh" (we'll be alright)
*yawn* am still sleepy, Iya micheal Jollof rice on my mind, that's what I'm gonna eat! Have a blessed day jare! Till the next time I am inspired see ya, catch ya, laera.

Dear Diary . . .

Dear diary its 11:30pm had a long day, didn't get to scribble anything down yesterday! Yeah yesterday was dad's 40th day prayer (that's gist for another day, it went very very well)! I can officially say that life goes on! Oh yea it does . . . Typha eventually changed her BBM(black berry messenger) display picture to something that didn't have to do with daddy! She's obviously getting better!
Dear Diary, I cried again today! Someone upset me! She said I was being unreal bout my love for my dad! How could she say that, DD? How? I said I wasn't going to write something that had to do with daddy in a while and yet she made me! DD(Dear Diary) you know I loved my daddy right? Remember I told you bout how close we were? Remember I told you how when I was in Junior secondary I'll fall ill at the slightest opportunity just cos I knew daddy would be there! Remember when I told you of how I became his mini p.a at about that time? And how he almost killed a bike guy for hitting me! And how he had this mischievous,happy n smiling face! Am sure you remember everything sef!
Gosh . . Now am angry self . . And she's supposed to be my friend o! I understand that she's got bottled up aggression! But DD how could she have been so insensitive as to say a thing like that! I was really upset! But then I read all the stuff I had told you previously about ma dad! Am sure you know I love him right? Yea am sure you do, and he knows I did and still do.
Asides that DD, Nike came today! Yea, same nike o. . Funny enough we were all having a conversation . . Come to think of it all us involved have lost one parent at some time. . Well we had to go out. I, Morenike (lol, yea same Morenike), Deola and Nike had to go out. Lol . . No DD not out as in out like that! Remember last week I told you I wanted to eat sharwama!! I finally had my sharwama today, laughed heartily, and at least I had a reason to be happy! Guess what DD, someone says am just like my dad, kai my head was swelling! Woh DD am kind of tired! *yawn* I'll give you more gist tomorrow! Thanks for the space and time . . .
