My journey to earth was the
intention of the Master (Lord God of Nature) to fulfill His will, even though
he gave me the freedom and room to decide which path I follow, he placed in
position opportunities to help guide my path. Knowing fully well that my
decision and choice of path is dependable on the kind of family and environment
I grew up, He introduced me to the best family and best environment that could
impact on me the necessary virtues I need.
I accepted my fate on my very first day on earth with
my cry which was my only means of communication and grew under the loving care
of my parents especially my mother who gave me her undying love and attention.
Her sensitivity to watch me closely not to be consumed by my actions of wanting
to understand the world was a plus. Seeing her attend to my very needs even
when she could not understand my language (cry) and when there was no much in
the house was the foundation of love she introduced to me.
When I grew up as a teenager,
each time she got offended by my dad, she waits for my return to report his
action, the amazing thing is; upon asking my dad about his action, he either
give reasonable excuse and promise never to repeat or deny completely. My Dad
was the head of the house, yet his loyalty to me made me so proud of myself.
Initially; I thought it was a privilege as the first child but later got to
understand that it is just pure exhibition of LOVE. A genuine love from a
father (the head of family) to a child made him so humble to respect the frown
of his child. I got a full knowledge and demonstration that love is humility,
attention, meekness and respect.
Loving a child is the most
valuable gift to help understand and live by the virtue of life. The family and
society owe every child the responsibility of love. How much love we give to
the children around us is determinant of the person they become. Parent alone are
not the only persons to help train a child, the society too has huge role to
play. Training a child is building a Nation. The children are the future,
loving them is simply teaching them how to love.
Do not underestimate the power of
LOVE to the children. Understanding love is; understanding sacrifice, patience,
risk, and not-giving-up. These are basic knowledge for life excellence. So
therefore; impact into every child this basic knowledge to build a loveable
nation.
Love is my fate, it is my power,
it is my will and my destiny.
Shallom!
