SUCH IS LIFE!
SUCH IS LIFE !
During your life journey
You are bound to relate, mingle, intermingle and associate
With different people of various behaviours, backgrounds, ages,
Ideas, races, ideology, thinking, attitude, characters and psyche
The good, the bad, the ugly
The kind, the cunning, and the inhumane
You may experience several ill-treatments
Disappointments, discouragements, discomfort
And many more as you relate with some people
You feel happy when someone treats you kindly
And doleful when treated very badly
These are harsh realities of life you have to accept
Or be prepared to accept
If a friend betrays you
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
Re-adjust and carry on with your life
Just a few among chums are truly dependable
Disappointments and ill-treatments make a man brave
Bravery enables you achieve at ease
Some goals that seemed difficult for many others
If you had spent a lot of money to take care of a lady
As well as on her education
And she later jilted you
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
Take your mind off her disappointment
And count yourself lucky
To not have married her
If she happened to be your better half
She will never be faithful
If you truly loved a man and because of this
You spent your money on his upkeep
Or even set up a business for him
And he later duped you and ran away
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
He will find it very difficult
To get a good wife whenever he needed one
That is just one of the rewards of traitorous characters
If a neighbour disrespects you
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
His/her action
Can’t stop the favours of God
From coming to you
If someone promises to help you
But refused to redeem their promise
Despite the fact that they have the means to assist
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
Don’t allow that to hold you back
Look for another way(s)
And that’s why it’s always reasonable
To have a back-up plan
If this plan fails, what next?
If someone mocks you
Because you’re in difficult situation
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
Many people are like that
They will certainly be shamed
When your maker makes way for you
If your relation betrayed you
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
There are many instances like that among family members
Cain and Abel are siblings
If someone you had assisted for long
Later makes headway in their career and become rich
But instead of recompensing your good deeds
They choose to ignore you
Take heart and be patient
Such is life!
Work hard and pray
Their conscience will continue to prick them
They will be filled with remorse and shame
Whenever they see you in better conditions
Moreover, don’t stop being kind to people
Because you’ve experienced several disappointments
From relatives, bosom friends, neighbours and associates
Don’t be unkind to womenfolk
Because a woman you truly loved had jilted you
The more you’re patient, kind and considerate to people
After facing disappointments
The greater your valour and rewards
And be optimistic that good things await you from above
