SECOND CHANCE #230

Here in Nigeria there used to be a TV that was produced in 2005 but gained recognition around 2008/2009. It was the first telenovela I came across and really made a good part of my childhood. Although smartphones had started coming into light, kids my age weren't too inclined to use them except some of us who played games because we were indoors 24/7. But apart from the games, there was something else everyone was glued to. I would say every average family in Nigeria had at least one person that was accustomed to this way of living. During those times things were quiet and peaceful and everyone lived a bit freely compared to how we live now.

9:00 PM was like a national time to watch a certain telenovela titled Second Chance. It was the story of a rich old man who married a young woman and was killed by the woman he married with the help of her boyfriend who happened to be the general manager of his company. He was given a second chance to life when he found out that although he was dead, had at the same time possessed the body of a young poor man and thus decided to go back to his house as a driver with the aim of securing his daughter’s future and exposing the culprit behind his death. He saw the true intent of those around him and tried to write the wrongs he did when he was alive.

The storyline opened up my imagination as I would find myself in my fantasy world thinking about the things I would do if I was Salvador Cerinza. That drama series taught us a lot about life and how we should value every moment we have because it could also teach us about trusting too much and being blinded by the things we feel instead of looking closer to see what's right in front of us. Second chances don't always come, and it was thrilling to see a story about it. I might rewatch it again because now that I think of it, it's been so long.
