Tough times don't last; tough people do.

Everyone has their own problem that they are battling with. Believe me, you will not see a single soul that does not have a problem he or she is facing. Just as the clothes we put on are different, our so-called problems are different from each other.

But whichever difficulties you might have in life, I believe they will make you strong. Challenges generally make people stronger. I do tell people that challenges do not kill someone; in fact, at some point in my life, I have to believe that you must be strong at all times because that is the only way to survive this life.
One of my toughest times in life was when I finished college. I tried all I could to gain admission to the university, but none of these things worked out. After two years, I had already wanted to give up on my dreams because it seemed they wouldn't work out.

After so many trials, I got admitted to one good university. I had already thought I would gain admission to the same school I went to for college. In fact, I had already prepared for everything and had a shop. As time goes on, I'm beginning to lose interest in going back to school.

Then I got admitted to the same school I wanted to go to, but in a different branch. At this point, I know things are going to be tough for me in school.
Someone like me has already left home since 2013, looking for green pasture. I could remember dash out something, sell some things, and take the rest out to the school.

Going to school was extremely tough. When I say extremely tough, then I mean it. I'm someone who doesn't even like to bother my parents because they are struggling, and if I can't give them anything, I should not be disturbing them. When I told my parents that I was going to school, all they could say was a prayer.

It was a late admission, so I had to leave as soon as I could. So I could study for exams, which will commence in two weeks. Imagine going to school and you don't know where you will stay; you don't even have anywhere you will sleep, and you need to be in school because you love education.
I was going to school, and I was thinking hard about where I was really going to sleep for real. I remembered I have a friend, but a lady.

We do not even like to talk; we just say hello and hi. I have to call this girl and beg her that I need to stay with her for some days. So kind of her, she accepted that I could stay over.

Imagine staying with a lady, sleeping, and waking up every day. Meanwhile, you need to work so hard and have nothing with you. At the same time, you can't beg or ask for anything because the lady you are staying with is more like a junior sister to you.
Honestly, if I ever forget anything in my life, I will not forget this story. There is more to it than that. Thank goodness for life.
After a long run, I survived and broke through. I did impossible things at that school.

What is this moment for me and how did I cope? You know, at some point in life, when you do not have anywhere to run to, you will become stronger and everything will be easy for you, no matter the situation you meet yourself in. Everything changes as time passes, and here we are today. One good lesson I meant was that I was able to cope and be able to live with anyone, and I can bend to any situation life throws at me.

I remember reading some of your school ordeals in the city chats, I am sorry for everything you went through, darling. I am happy that even after everything, you pulled through and today, you can look back at all of them, and be grateful to the Almighty for the grace he gave you as you moved through the most challenging period of your life. I am proud of you.

I remember the first day I went to Epe, it was that same day we were going up and down looking for house. The story is just funny.

Yeah what doesn't kill us will make us stronger.

That was a lot bro, you deserve more. All you got were prayers when leaving for uni and you had to stay with a lady. That was not easy bro.

All thanks to God that you finished strong.
