(BALLOON) My kid nickname
While growing up, I used to be known as ballon, why? Because everywhere I go, I fall down anyhow and anytime I fall, I get injured. They said I was quite a playful one, a curious one, always wanted to see beyond the reef, I am the only one that can stunt in the house, I have received the injuries of life, my toe nails have been pulled, my finger nails has been pulled, I have stepped on nail that the nail penetrated through my leg, I have fallen and with my hand landing on nail Piercing through my hand, it was all fun and a lesson to be more careful on whatever I do, but the word CAREFUL didn't work for me, it wasn't in my dictionary...
After all these experiences, I grew up as a strong person, taking every injury as an energizer, a boost for life, and it really worked for me for a while, until I had my second working experience, that place it was just an example of just what he'll fire will be, that was the torture that the Israelites faced before Moses too them away, that was real suffer; that after working the first day, I was contemplating if I still want to work for the next day...

It was a factory work, we (they) produce brown soaps, my work was to be carrying the soaps from where it was filled in carton to where it will be tapped. I decided to get used to the pain, but one day, another dimension of pain came, something I have never experienced before, and it started affecting me, and all my activities, it felt like a dislocation...
Why will have a dislocation now, I still have a long way in life to go, and at this young age I am already having a dislocation, ahh, this can't continue oo was all I could think of, and after I left, I realized that I can't get used to pain, because if you try to sustain one, it will create another one, and like that like that, it will all accumulate and turn to another story that touches the heart..
The injury affected my hand, that anything I want to do with my hand, I will feel that pain, and it was around that time that the tank in our house had problem so we started using the well water, and it was only me my parent will call to fetch the water, (they don't call my elder brother to do anything, the ones after me are girls till our last boy, who else will they call to do such if not me? Second born are really trying oo馃槫**)
You can actually get used to being healthy, rich, alright, but as far as sickness, poverty, injury, you can't get used to it no matter how many times you have been injured, what do I mean? The pain you receive when pepper enters your eyes is different from the pain of that same pepper in your private part as a man, (ask any man beside you the one that is easier) or can the pain of hitting your thumb toe hardly on a hard surface be compared to the pain of hitting your little toe in the same hard surface hardly, those with such experience will understand what I'm talking about...
Every part of the body has it's own type of pain, we can know how a particular pain in a particular part of the body feels, we can try to endure, but not get used to, this was my mistake growing up, I thought if I could hold a fire on my hand, that means I can hold it with my leg, which is not true, I thought because I have injured different types of injuries, no other injury can be like those that I have faced in the past, let the past be for the past, pains are renewal like the day...
We cannot control accident but we can prevent them, even in our being protective, we still get hurt, it's only God that takes care of man, but at the same time, man should try to take care of themselves. God bless you all...
