1 Wave of life

It's a cold Monday morning the dews are cool the day seems bright I'm delighted by how the brightness of the day looks today

it's a sign of blessing seeing sun

and dews are still falling on me at the same time. it makes me thrilled, Giving me the intriguing that today is going to be a great day

I walked to the Valley and whispered to the daffodils tossing in glee.

sun shine on Me, may I share in your joy

let today be my day give me multiple reasons to be happier I said as an affirmation. As I sat down on the snag stump in the valley for a while then went inside to get set for work.

The Valley is near my home I live in a Cobin in the county side.

ever since I lost my both parents in the cold hand of daed at age 4, life has really slapt me on the face, I was the only child of my parents. some say life is good

but in my case life is unfair it comes with too much ups and downs and lots of temptations I've never for one day sat down to have in solitude introspection and thought of any good memories it's always melancholy. But still I don't consider myself to be unfortunately cause I'm resilience moreover that's what kept me going. I believe in the phrase that says "as long as there is life, there is hope"

Even though sometimes it feels like I'm swamping on the surface of the earth, its really hard to move forward like,,, I can't come out from this peril

The first thing I do as soon as I wake up is to look for reasons to smile I speak positively into my life believing that every other voice spoken into my life is a background noise. well that kept me going.

I arrived at work very early today, customers seems not to be coming maybe its because of the rain that fell last night people are probably still cuddling themselves in their blanket I said In my thought as I laughed at my nasty thinking.

I was just sitting down doing some calculations when I heard a noise from the front door. Hello who's there? Finally a client is here I said to myself

Good morning sir

Yeah how are you?

I'm upright thanks for asking

I'm looking for A plain black boss polo with a touch of silver design do you have any?

Yes sir there are varieties of them to choose from please come inside I said, as I directed him to where they are and started opening them up for him to make his Choice

This are the few ones we have, would you like to choose any?

Yes give me this three

they are so beautiful its really hard to choose from them I'll buy all of it he said smiling at me.

Okay sir I smiled back and rap it in a nylon for him

He paid for it and stepped outside.

Dule what are you doing? Why are the clothes not properly arranged my boss came inside and asked me looking at me disgustingly? Good morning ma

I greeted a client just left now before you walked in I said in obeisance

what do you mean a client just left?

when did you even come to work today? She stood and put her hands on her waist still looking at me I got here few minutes to 8 0'clock ma

Are you sure she asked and went inside immediately without waiting for my reply

She didn't bother waiting for my response because she knews I'm always punctual when it comes to timing cause I'm a morning person.

She's extremely a mean person but I don't consider her as a bad person nor will I say she hates me cause when it comes to business you have to be strict so people don't mess around with your investment. I've been working in the boutique over a year now. to be honest, I don't like the job but thats what I found myself doing so I pladge to doing it with all my heart and more over there isn't varieties of jobs in this our local area to choose from.

It was a very splendid day at work today.

I made lots of sales for my boss and went home happily as she even dashed me money.

Getting home I realized I don't have electricity and there power everywhere they cut my light cause I couldn't meet up with the monthly electricity bills.

It's over two months I've been living in darkness I just didn't remember cause I was thrilled today that I didn't remember any life problems.

I turned on my phone touch light and went to take a shower in my small wooden bathroom then went to my snug room to lay down on the small mattress. I finche as I lay backward and stretched out my body in gloan and peek after a very long day at work as usual after saying my prayers I tried to fall asleep but got lost in thought about what happened at work today, remembering the teenage girl that came with her rich boyfriend and they almost empty the boutique, she wasn't polite to me at all but I feign because she is a customer and customers are always right and that took me into a deeper thought about my childhood life I still remember vividly everthing that happened when I was hawking pure water in the busy street of portharcourt at the age of eight and how I go to farm under the hot scorching sun everyday while I was living with my stepmother at the age of 12 when I decided not to leave with my aunty in the city anymore it was like,, from frying pan to fire.

And now I choose to live on my own as an advanced teenager.

I'm seing someone at my age insulting me for no good reason just because she was born with golden spoon probably a gold digger Well,, it didn't hurt that bad its obvious she doesn't have good morals if only she has been through what I've gone through she would have known what good manners truly are and would have been forced to be of good etiquette. My thoughts started fading out and I falll at sleep in my cozy room and dim the light.
