Regarding my previous post....
WOW!!!! To be honest when I wrote Akoba Central, it was ment for Chatafrikarticles.com but I decided to share it with bloggville too. I really did not think anyone would take me seriously, everyone that knows me knows my mind is a scary place and that I have a warped sense of humor but this was not even one of my comedic pieces. I probably should have told everyone that it was purely fiction…for that I apologize. I realize my little stunt made folks worry and God forbid there comes a time that I really need help, I hope you will all come through as usual. Seriously…e ma binu…MY BAAAD!
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?
