The Right Track by - Kosi Ebirim

The Right Track

Few days ago, I visited a bank. As I walked into the banking hall, I joined the queue. Not too long, everyone left the queue and joined another. Without asking questions, I also joined them while I left my original queue. After spending much time and it was my turn to transact, I was told to meet someone else. Meeting someone else automatically means joining the same queue I left; but this time, from the back. I started all over again and spent much time; but if I had maintained my original queue, I wouldn't have spent the hours I wasted just to carryout one transaction.

Many of us are in various promising relationships. We see a future in it. it is beautiful; but something is discouraging us.
The moment we find someone else who looks richer, beautiful/handsome than what we have, we feel cheated. Inside of us we say (who wan suffer)
Our negative friends too don't help matters. Although they encourage us to go for the best, they still abuse us of settling for less. To them, the people we are currently with are not meant for us. We deserve more.
My banking  experience may have no relationship with what I just stated above, but I just can't find a better way to explain it than that which I just did.

What am I trying to say? Stay on course. Don't allow anything make you change your mind from the right path to yet another path you are not sure of.  Today, people don't value relationship. Today they are in, the next moment they are out. Here is not trying to encourage you to overlook signs that may show a bad ending when both of you come together as one like Lack of Trust, Cheating, a violent partner/domestic violence etc..
Let us learn to build people. Build our relationship. Make it work.
The beautiful things you see some of your friends enjoying, you can only see them outside in public and not at night when no one is watching. Because of the things you see and how you perceive them blessed and favoured, they won't share the many nights of tears and weeping; the many moments when no one is there to celebrate with them on their birthday.
Stay on Course. Build what you have. Value it. Cherish it and you'll forever be glad you did.
