Chronicles of a Soldier
Thursday, June 08, 2006
Please tell me why I spent the majority of my day at the dentist, apparently I have a cavity (just one) and I need to have my wisdom teeth (4) pulled. Other than that I was pretty healthy. I was referred to an orthodontist to see about getting braces to align my canines. Ok maybe I am a little bored and I just love going to the doctor besides the mere thought of loosing teeth prematurely gives me the creeps!!!!
So last night after bible study we all went out to dinner to celebrate Remi’s birthday, the heifer took my…well her…hell my memory card to Naija so I could only take one picture. Mumsy and Uncle Segun joined the fun and footed the bill. I left early because I had to work at my Marlboro job. I figure I put in a few hours before I drop of their Radar completely. Naija pictures looked good o! I was hating majorly that I couldn’t be part of Dayo’s Big day. I will be sure to put up all the pictures as soon as Dayo gets back.
O by the bush…I got my cable! Please tell me why I ran out the office yesterday when dude called me that he was at my door, I spoke to him the whole 15 minute drive home to make sure he did not jabo me. Please tell me why he was fine as hell…to bad I am addicted to my breed, I would have changed my name to his name!
So tonight, I will be at Remi’s, I have got to hear every detail about T&D’s wedding….Oh damn! I am working again tonight!!! Dupe.. Tomi... Dayo….wanna pick up my shift? Holla back!!
The Odds are against me but pile up enough Odds and you are Even. The inevitability of my ability to consistently overcome overwhelms me. As do the magnificence of God's grace towards me and mine. I marvel at my proximity to my destiny. I am astounded that Can't, Won't and Later disrupt my journey to greatness. A conscious decision is mine to make and christen them Can, Will and Now! My reflection gazes back at me with another challenge at hand, procrastination hinders my reaching my destination. Don't tell me where I should go till you walk in my shoes. Yesterdays mistakes are for tomorrows amends, yet I ponder on them like the hand of time changes? Mediocrity has become a comfort zone and I have turned obstacles into road-blocks rather than stepping-stones, I find myself compromising my integrity as I try to maintain the status quo. How easy it is to condemn me and defame my character, when you really should commend me, and applaud my efforts. Intimidated by my confidence, you misconstrue it as arrogance, I know who I am.... A strong, black-diamond in the rough, a female soldier, a Queen amongst her peers.. now who the hell are you?
