Hi awesome hivers,
I want to thank God for sparing our lives to see the last month of the year 2022. It hasn't been easy but God still remains faithful. My unreserved acknowledgement goes to all of us that have been committed in ensuring this community is sustained by our wonderful, inspiring, life transforming post. I also want to recognize the support of the management.
With great joy in my heart, I wish to some childhood memories that I can ever remembered. Our memories differs base on how God created us and ability to retain things depends on an individual.
There are some people that have long term memory while some short term. I think mine should be on the average because I may not be able to account vividly all the experiences I had but I'll try my very best to highlight the clearest amongst them.
It's good to keep memory of events because they speak a lot especially in times like this. I want to share what happened when I started my secondary school journey. After I finished my primary school, I got admission same year into junior secondary one. Since in primary school, I had been thinking of becoming a pilot and own my aircraft someday.
Stepping in the secondary school for the very first time I became so timid. Infact it was critical such that I can't stay alone with out the help of a senior student.
I also noticed that I had low self esteem which makes stay in obscurity for a couple of weeks until I received help from one of the outstanding senior who took me up as his boy.
Hmmm fear really dealt with me, I couldn't free myself to do anything to an extend when I was asked to respond to any question in class by any teacher I will start crying uncontrollably. Sometimes when I was asked of my name, tears will start dripping out of my cheek. This is the peak of my experience in JS1 crying because of fear and inferiority complex.
I was thinking my name will change to the crying boy but everything turned around when I got promoted to the next class. I was able to coordinate myself with words of encouragement that came through my parents and some ot my seniors in school then. Books also played vital role in development of my self worth. I read and carefully noted some points that remains indelible in me. I personally worked on myself by participating in debate which built my stage and public management. I represented my school at all levels of the government.
As I conclude, I have discovered that fear can result to some many manifestation of which I succeeded in sharing only one that stood out for me. My family background also contributed to the kind of challenge I faced because there was not opportunity at home play very well. I think parents should make effort and create good terrain for their children to freely engage themselves in balancing their lives.
