Born Again The DREAM I had
Saint or Sinner. Rich or Poor. Black or White. We all have dreams. However, a dream will always remain a dream until you make it visionary. Those words came about in my thoughts as I was wondering about this dream- a given dream to be precise. My parents, mom, to be specific, would always tell me that in the future they want to see me as a Doctor of this family; I`d always smile and say no word hence it remained a dream, simply because I cared less about it. It wasn’t my dream after all. I was young and confused. I didn’t know why they wanted me to be a Doctor, neither did they know- they would have told me! Came this day at school, when the principal caught us making hilarious moves on top of the desks. That pissed her off. So she told us to stand in front and tell our mates the reason why we come to school. My friend and I sat at the front desk just next to the clas
Born Again Independence at a young age
Sometimes following your dream can feel like a sleepwalking kind of thing. However, if you don’t follow a dream you have, you would be like a dog barking without biting. So one shouldn’t cry to give up but cry to keep going. One shouldn’t cry to quit because you are already in it, rather find a way and benefit out of it. Nothing matters like maintaining the situation. Time went by, and I was in grade4. It was our first day at school after the December holidays, and the Clever- Learner didn't pitch up at school. After noticing that she wasn’t at school, my mood changed and I got a weird feeling. Something should have happened to her. This is so unlike her. Or maybe she is having fun wherever she went for holidays so she forgot that schools were opening today. Who knows! She didn’t pitch up the whole week, then a month. That really got me worried and I had to act on it. The first thing I did was to tell mom that I want to visit my friend
Born Again The World Outside Home
Now that the key belongs to me, I consider myself facing reality since I`d be mixing up with the outside world dreamers. “Are you ready to take that step though?” asked the mystery voice. “Who are you? What do you want from me?” My lastborn brother came into my room. “What’s going on?” “Nothing to worry about and what do you want in my room?” “There is much we need to talk about." he said, "Once upon a time in a village, there were these two brothers; one was older than the other one. This day came, they both got the same type of work and started working the same day but the young one had to report to the old one. You know why?” “What’s your point exactly?” “You are in grade6 and you may say you are turning twelve but it doesn’t mean you are old. Even though mom gave you freedom, I bet you will never get a lead towards your dream until the right time.” “The story doesn’t end there, ten years l
Born Again Friends Are Influencers
A friend is supposed to be someone you know well and like. Someone who always supports the best in you. A person who has the same interests and opinions as yours. If I can have someone like that in my life, I`ll get a clearer picture of the path I really need to take. But who could it be? I once had a friend, I wouldn’t say I knew him well and like him. We were just naughty school kids. Maybe I should make new friends because those weren’t really friends. They were vultures in a sheepskin. I was sitting alone wondering about what had happened when I got these thoughts. A few minutes later, my lastborn brother came in. “That boy is too secretive, but my contacts managed to get his banking details. It`s not in his real name, though. Now hack into his account.” Why would he fake an account? “I did a background check on the guy. Turns out his 2years older than me, currently doing grade8. which doesn’t make sense to me, he se
Born Again Transforming moment
I am now in grade7, yet I haven’t got something promising about my dream. My brother is not here to take me to that Old man`s laboratory. Maybe my brother was right, maybe I am too young to be here. Ever since I`ve been outside home I`ve done nothing good rather than bad. The power of the key became stronger than I could imagine. I`d kill to give it away, I just can’t hold it anymore. No- one my age has been to jail or awaiting a rape and murder case. What have I got myself into? Indeed I`m not responsible and mature, I should have listened. I wish I had never wanted the key, I wish I could return it back. But that will never happen because it`s too late, I can`t undo what`s already done. As days went by, my Last- born brother came back from overseas, unannounced. At least, unlike others, he cared to ask about my dream. He's a guy you can`t make a fool so when he asked, I told him everything; that I`m stuc
Born Again Seeking For Revenge.
They say God created this world and its people. They say He wanted nothing but peace towards his people. But what was he thinking? How dare He create us, alone, without a mother? I mean how would we have peace amongst us in a place without a mother`s love? Only she knows what peace is, that’s why without her presence, peace became an unknown word and every human had to live for themselves, from their own sweat. After the era of segregation, I thought everyone born that year to infinity was called a ‘born free’. But to give it a closer look, there`s no such thing as ‘born frees’ in this world we live on. A wise man once said, “All `men are born frees put trapped in chains of life.” What the man literally implied was that at home, school, workplace, courtroom, and even worse on the streets, there are rules to obey yet, on the other hand, no- one wants to be ruled; unless you do it physically so. No wonder why out of a hundred percent drea
Born Again Hypocrisy
A few days later, on a Saturday noon- few hours before sunset, I decided to visit the Wise-thug at his house. I wanted to tell him about the incident, but as I was on my way to his place another thought told me not to. He was going to undermine me. When I got there, I found him playing play station 5, with his girlfriend, who was on the fridge grabbing some fruits. “I knew you`ll come back once you run out of cash!” he said, “I hope you used it wisely, did you?” “Let`s not go there, please!” “What happened?" he said, "I need to know.” “I met three of these guys on my way home. They demanded you from me- told me that I should show them where you are or I die. As always, I chose to die." I said, "Hell, they did beat me up, fortunately not to death. When I woke up a few seconds later, I found a gun on the scene, I then went after them. And killed them- all!” “WHAT! Who were they? Are you sure they are dead?”
Born Again Fate
It was those lonely days when the Cruel-man met me in the wasteland. By then I was used to the regular routine, the one my Last- born brother showed me when the warehouse was still the Old man scientist`s laboratory. He met me in a spot my brother once took me to. He caught me crying, crying because I couldn’t hold onto reality. The streets were full of blood, people were fighting for their needs and wants and I couldn’t do anything about it yet I wanted to save the world and its people. “Every time we meet, there should be tears on your face. What`s the matter, young man?” asked the Cruel-man. “Nothing I can`t handle, sir.” “Don’t act tough, young man." he said, "Talk to me.” “Says a person who left me to death when I was weak and unable to act tough”, I said with attitude. “I don’t care how you feel about me. What I know is that you currently need someone to talk to. You must thank God he brought you me.” He sai
