THAT SEMESTER

Who forgets that semester……?
That semester when you really lived
You just were on point; as though you were dreaming
With that strong desire to mount the seat of the national presidency
Management to you had never been that smooth and through
Academically, spiritually and financially you were on the top chart
Academic life seemed like that of primary four
The bridegroom had unveiled the beauty of the CGPA
Your foes could not behold it
To save time and ensure accuracy,
You devised an algorithm to produce this output (total debtors - bad debts)
That semester when you had a vibrant spiritual life
But who wants to reminisce on that semester
When your life was in total disorder
That semester where you still wonder
If you had 24hrs a day
You were lost right from the start
Until you woke up one morning
To respond to the greeting of examination
Then you realize you’d been a liability to yourself
Remember the curses and ill words you put in your own life?
Take a break now and forgive yourself

……………………………………..
That semester when you had nothing to do with money
Your spiritual life was nothing to write home about
And two molds of deaths awaited you

These only gave you grounds to write yourself off
But once it happened,
It’s a lesson learnt
Memories are a powerful tool

Accommodate them if they never want to depart
They’ll guide your path
Importantly, make corrections, learn something ; then move on. But remember to

Always begin the semester with a prayer and a target.
