Write Your Own Story

Mayowa 1If there’s one thing I pray to never be… one thing I never will be… it is ‘ordinary’.

Ordinary in the sense of just coming to Earth and leaving without dropping a note, so others know ‘I was here’.

Not gonna happen!

No matter how many humans walk the face of this Earth, I will leave my own little clues behind.

The plan is to die empty; With a smile on my face as death harvests the last of my precious breath.

To die knowing that I was all God enabled me to be. I would have explored every crevice of my being. I would have done all my mind imagined I could do.

For in this L.I.V.I.N.G, I would have written my own story. That’s what motivates me to do whatever I do; Not forgetting that I am always inspired by God.

Have you ever considered what would be said about you when you eventually pass on?

What would you like written? That you were a loving and that no one may ever fill the void you left? OR that you were a hero(ine) and Nigeria or the world would never be the same without you….

In your career, would generations of generations read about you and forever speak of your contributions to humanity?

The list of praiseworthy achievements one could wish for is surely endless BUT…

Your tombstone may be uninteresting, unadorned…. because you never wrote your own story.

I’m not trying to make you think about death. On the contrary, THINK ABOUT YOUR LIFE.

THINK ABOUT RIGHT NOW.

2015 is here and like the thousands of years before it, it is passing away already. What will be written in your life’s diary for this year? You can write it by BEING it or DOING it.

What story are you writing?

PS: Write your own story or someone else will write it for you and it would be too late to edit it.
