Rummaging through my thoughts, I search tirelessly and yet I could not find what I sought for. I searched through the deep pockets of my mind and it still eluded me. Troubled, my heart was that I couldn’t the restlessness that has overwhelmed my whole being. Since I could no longer bear the wherewithal with which my mind was troubled about, I hopelessly but firmly let it go.
Then, suddenly, I looked up from where I sat and I saw a Mother who was walking along with her two children engaged in a sort of bargaining stance. I know not what the conversation was all about but all I could still, silently wishing their mother to bend to their will. They, probably through a telepathic means, communicated to each other without having to speak out loud to have their wise and all knowing ‘she-that-knows-what’s-best-mother’ do things their own way. And when I was just thinking how wrong and mistaken these little children would still found out they are, miraculously, the mother opened her bag and gave each a fifty naira note. I was shocked! I couldn’t believe, for the life of me, that this mother who happens to know everything and how best to raise her children could just bend to the wills of her ‘see as I intently watch on is that the children were holding their mother to ransom. They both stood immature’ children and consent to do what they wanted her to do.
And just when I was watching this event unfold, I heard a click in my heart which then brought me to the initial state I was in before the drama with the mother and kids happened. Then I knew what it was! I knew the reason why my mind was befuddled with what I couldn’t remember was the object of its unsettled state.
I was pondering upon the order of life and how well adjusted, or otherwise, that I was to it. And just like the situation the mother had with her two children, I knew that I can also change the order of life, however in a small measure I can. I can change the status quo. I can break protocols. But not by violating the laws that guards and makes the order of things
But by arming myself with the knowledge that gives me an edge and a way around it. By constantly drawing upon my inner skills and strengths which makes the order of life to want to yield to my wills and ways thereby suspending all laws that are already in place just to give in to my demands.
Therefore, knowing what to do to garner favor and break the conventional way by which things happens will surely put me in the seat of power where I could dictate the new order.
The order where which things go the way I exactly want it to go!
Empower yourself. Improve yourself. And watch the new order overthrone the old order of life
