When The Sour Days Come, We Lean On God.

We listen we don't judge 😁 atleast that got me all warmed up to start my writing today, for today's special I would be presenting to us "Money And Student", you know whenever we people hear that you are a student in a higher institution they begin to think you have enough money and I use to wonder where the mentality is coming from which landed me in the conclusion that people assume that if you are a student you ask everyone for money and because they pity you in school they send you money which makes you a thousandnaire over night.

My starting the higher institution was by faith in God more like me taking a leap of faith not even knowing how tomorrow would be, so by starting this week's prompt I would like to paint the fact that in all my financial circles it all comes from him, am not the type to want to always call home because I know where I am coming from, I come from a house where apart from the first born the rest of us are in the higher institution and we are about four so you should know what carrying four university loads sounds like which is why I have told God that it's me and Him here because I have no One else, no rich uncle anywhere, no rich siblings anywhere and no parents sending you weekly allowance.

So how am surviving school financial is by the help of God through the means of Hiving and I also sell things in school to get little little change like currently now am selling honey, I didn't put my hope on anyone but what God did was to use men to constantly and one of those humans is my sister, she would roundly call and just send me money as if she knew I was at the end of everything like I was at a point where I am helpless, the 2k 3k she sends at that moment feels like billion of Nairas to me because it usually go a long way. Well just maybe I over hyped school more than it should be because I experienced things I never envision that I would, more like they were not in my bucket list.

The heartbreaking money related challenge that a student can face which can disturb alot is when your gas finishes and you are totally empty, this is the kind of situation that I have ever found myself infact my gas got finished and I didn't even have reasonable food stuffs to want to cook, I think I had only rice, red oil, grounded pepper, some pieces of maggi remaining and ontop this my gas had finished which made me do rub and shine that morning before going to lectures due to the weather over here, so that day I came home with a crying stomach and an empty gas, I lay down on my bed that day remembering the days when I had more than enough to the extent that I would cook a certain type of food and leave it just because I didn't have the appetite. That experience taught me that the sour days would surely come and on how you saved would be how you would live during the sour days, I also learnt that nothing lasts forever you might have enough today and tomorrow you would be begging to survive.

I believe that we will all scale through those bad days no matter how they present themselves it's just willing for you to fight through it, thank you so much for reading through with us I hope to see you next time 😘.
