Blessings Fell On Me
I have been so disorganized looking for ways to make ends meet but do not know how to go about it. Life has been so tough on me for some time now, but I just try hard to make ways where there is no way. This would be the best I will do to make me come out of this world of too much thinking.
I tried hard to go out to meet friends that can put me through some work. I tried hard but those I saw out there are the ones who can put you into one trouble or the other. They don't want to show you the ways. I even have a friend called Caleb who happened to be my best friend. He is making money and has many investments which he always employs people to work for him. He even gave people money to start a business while some will return and some will not return. There was a guy who happened to be a friend of his whom I knew very well. He is Patrick and has money. This guy became his best friend just because of his richness. This shows that Caleb can only make friends with those who are rich since he is rich. I'm not in his class any longer.
The fact remains that anytime he wants to buy a new car, I will be the first person he will tell. Not just a car but anything people. He was single back then and his wife always ran to me as his best friend to lay any form of complaint to me. His wife's name is matter. The matter looked so beautiful but I love material things. She loves anything flashy. Since they have gotten married, I have been forgotten. It means I no longer exist or I'm on her list of her husband's friends who she can run to at any time. This means Caleb got his match as a wife. In the sight of the couple, I'm now seen as an enemy, but now they are my enemy of progress because they don't want my progress.
There was a day I went to meet up with Caleb to lend me some money, but to my greatest surprise, he told me categorically that he doesn't lend money to someone close to him. I never for once quarrel with him for rejecting me instead I always rejoice with him whenever he is progressing. This was how I was taught and how I was raised.
Caleb does not want to help me and does not want to see me progressing with the look of things. There was a time when I got a job that could pay me a tangible amount of money, but Caleb discouraged me. He did not allow me to work in that environment because I will be richer than him. Since I trusted him to some extent, I could not object but listened to him. When I later got his full character, I decided to drift away from him gradually.
Caleb always helps people but sees me as his inner enemy that will not progress. Moses is his relative who also felt the same way I'm feeling towards Caleb. Now, Moses came to meet me to report Caleb's behavior to him. I could not say a lot to him about how Caleb is behaving towards me because I don't trust anyone.
Caleb bought a car for Joe who cried to him. Although, Joe will be paying on an installment basis. So, I have been a friend but an enemy inside of him. Caleb was not expecting me to progress.
One fateful day, my wife decided to tell me that I should keep clear from him and I should not tell him any of my love which I did. When I was going for an interview, I did not tell Caleb. When I was given the job and started working, I decided to let him know. He was so angry with the look on his face. He never wanted me to become great but just wanted me to remain in the same spot while he kept on progressing. God is so kind, the place I'm working is now a better place which fetches me more than what he is getting.
This means, blessings have fallen on me and he was put to shame. He has no right in my life and cannot control me. So, Caleb is the bad friend who can only lure you to something that cannot favor you.
Be wise in the kind of friends you make as they may be friends in disguise but hatred inside of them.
