LIFE IS A LESSON

I was thinking this morning..... about our speed in this race of life. Last Sunday, I was privileged to attend the wedding of the daughter of my mummy's friend she's also my former classmate in the College.

As I sat as part of the invitee at the reception, listening to the proud MOB (mother of the bride) giving her speech, I reflected on how far we've come as former classmates in school. I considered how her children are of marriage-able age (the youngest just turned 21), while am just 20.

I recalled another classmate of ours who just graduated as a medical doctor, but am still an undergraduate. As I pondered on why it seems I am lagging behind, the face of another of our classmate flashed by and I was reminded that his children are in Nursery school While am yet to find my missing rib.

Be At this point, it dawned on me that though we were all classmates and graduated together same year, life has shuffled us and placed us in different classes today. We were classmates in school, but not classmates in life. Everyone has his unique class. I concluded that in the school of life there are no classmates, because Life is a class of one.

Life is a class of one. Hmm!!! That conclusion held me down ,7 years after I graduated from my secondary school,and now am still an undergraduate 300level,becoming a copper is my prayer point.

One day, a colleague that we both graduated from the same secondary school,I met him here in ondostate,I was happy to see him because it's been a while we saw each other last since our secondary school days , we both gisted and he ask what am I up to I told him am still a student (300level) and he said 'Bro, na wa o! We both graduated from our secondary school together and I have gotten three promotions and you are still in the university 300level to be precise.

I left him feeling bad but not for long because soon after, I realised that in the school of life there are no classmates. Life is a class of one. He is on his path while I am on mine.

Have you considered why, from the same branch of a tree you have both ripe and unripe fruits? The seeds were released same time, exposed to same nutrients and environmental conditions but yet some ripen before others.

Identical twins that deliberately wait for each other to be in the same class, engage in the same business like P-Square (Peter and Paul Okoye Nigerian musician superstar)and even wed on the same day, will not get their wives pregnant on the same day. Life is a differentiator. My mind is made up that Life is a class of one.

If it is true that in the school of life there are no classmates, because Life is a class of one, then why do we look at another and feel inadquate, like we are not where we should be? Why would someone that has been privileged to be in a somewhat lofty position look down on others like he is superior in some way? Life is a class of one.

I am in my class for now (it can always change) and you are in yours. Do not sweat over the class others are in, because there are no classmates in life. If you like, give yourself double promotion like we do in those days, life will eventually place you in the class you are meant to be.
Same thing applies to this chain ,don't be jealous when you see other poeples posting and having alot of POB or comment,just the matter of TIME, *you will surely get there

T--taking
I--important
M--movement
E--everyday

Do not compare yourself with anyone, because you are in a class of one.
There are no classmates in life.
Let's ponder on this as we journey through life.
There are no class mates in life. It is all man for himself, God for us all.

So, it is better to create one's happiness. How? True happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like
