A boy was wandering about in a light forest admiring and appreciating nature when he fell into a pit. He cried out for help but no one came to his rescue. He stood in the pit aimlessly and was hopeless for a long time. Screaming out loud at the top of his voice to see if someone would locate him but no one did. No one was around to help him so he had to improvise. He looked around to see if he would find what to help him get out besides the pit wasn’t too deep. There were some fragments of stones and broken blocks on the floor with dirt’s, straw and hay. He had to get out because he was scared and he was running out of time as the night drew nearer. He began to work. He cleared a portion, filled it with stones, pilled the dirt’s on it and started using broken blocks as steps. He took one step at a time with the help of those blocks and before he knew it, he finally got to the top and that was how he came out.
Many of us are like this boy, in the process of wandering about, we got lost and now we are in pits. Most of us can’t get out because we can’t improvise; we are stock, stagnant at a spot. All we need is a step at a time not two because you will use two steps to destroy the steps below and start all over again. Why not be patient and take one step at a time and before we know it, we are at the top, that place we desire and we dream of. Everything that you always wished for could be yours, should be yours, would be yours when we learn to take a step at a time. Our faith makes us stronger. Life is a stage, success is also a stage and failure is not an exception. We have to figure out what we want and also work towards achieving it. Been successful doesn’t make you neither does failure break you..!
