SEC - S9W6: "Mi Mayor Desafío"// SEC - S9W6: " My Biggest Challenge "

Greetings my dearest people, I believe that every one of us is doing good, am excited but sad because I will have to remember years back, life challenges are in different forms, some stroke through your brain forever while others can be forgotten. Just sit back and read how mine happened. @vickyson.

What has been your biggest challenge?

what a touching story to tell, I was very young and happy back then in school, and I got admission into the College of Education Akwauge Nasarawa State, in my final year I met a man that has shown me love, and I also fall in love with him, we date for some months,

In my opinion, he loves me so much, on a very good day he invited me to his house, I dressed beautifully and was excited to meet him, over there he welcome me with a kiss on my forehead,
Food was saved everything look beautiful, and time was passing, I said to him I should be going home by now, but suddenly, he stood up and short the door

My heart start to bite fast I became so afraid of what might happen to me, low and behold my fear come through, he force himself on me, without any protection, I was pleading, crying but with no help because he live alone, that one night has changed my life history forever, I became pregnant after one month when I call his attention concerning the issue,

he said abort the baby, and he send me money, I was confused and the scale of abortion because I had killed many victims before, so I sake advice from my close friend, she said abort the baby because you are still in school, you can't handle pregnancy now but I told about death, I encourage myself and use the money for my school project, I couldn't bring myself to tell my mum and dad, I bear everything, he stopped calling my phone, even when I did, he wouldn't answer, life become so stressful, but I keep moving forward alone, after my final exam, I call my mom to inform her that I have gotten a job in Abuja, so I not come home

I did all that to keep them from finding out the situation am in, the pregnant keep growing sometimes I hardly eat because there was no food before I could afford a square of a meal I have to plat hair, and my mom will call, how are you doing today and the workplace, I will say all is well, but deep inside of me am dying from hunger and stronghold

I fall sick without money to go to the hospital, life becomes miserable. I went to seek help from the church but even the pastor wanted to sleep with me, I left in tears and was praying for God's mercy, he lead me to another ministry there in Abuja, and without hesitation, they took full responsibility for me, and the pregnancy, I see hope again, they have given me money, food, clothes and many help more,

The pastor make me understand that I need to inform my parents about the situation, he said what if it becomes worst who will take me home, he collected my parents' contents and pass the information to them, in shock at what my dad had, he falls I'll and his blood pressure rises the news was not easy at all, the men of God keep talking to them, one day he calls and said let her come back home,

the pastors and church elders make decisions and give me some money and food and then assign one person to come with me. I was ashamed to face my parents, after so many lies, they were angry but what can they do am still their daughter, and after nine months,

I put to birth and it was a boy, I named him Japheth meaning ( God enlarged my territory) nothing remains the same ever since then.

Tell us how did you get over it?

I pick up the challenges to move on with my life, as a single mother I know that much responsible rest on my shoulder so I start cooking food to make income in my village it was a shame that after graduating from school, I end up selling food, I closed my ears to all that people can say, with the income, I father and mother my son's needs and hospitals bill if need arises, many support from my family help me to overcome the challenges.

I never give up my hope of becoming successful business women, I trade goods and services from villages during market days and take classes for weeks days, I do all these for the well-being of my son and me, it keeps me away from thinking too much about the situation.

Now my son is six years old, I have sent him to school, and celebrated his birthday in the little ways I can just to make him happy always. Every time I looked at my little angel, I encourage myself that my tears were not in vain, up till now the father never showed up again, what a life.

What advice can you give us from your experience??

First, tell your children ( particularly the females ) never to keep their relationship a secret from you. If only my parents know my boyfriend, they could fight for me but his identity is unknown to them

Never put your entire trust in the person that walks up to you in the name of love, the word ( LOVE ) has led many individuals into falling off careers, sick beds, mantle disorders others on early crave. It does good to those who found it but not all.

Stand and walk as much as you can if you fall never give up on your goals in life because of today's failure. Am still the one person my siblings look up to for help today because I refuse to accept defeat. Giving room for a close relationship with your children is important because when they feel like all hope is lost, they will find shelter in you.

Thank you all, I am very happy that you get to know about my experience in life, I know some individuals still live with the same situation as mine, don't give up speak out so that others can learn from you. am inviting @yakspeace @wasa2020 @f2i5.
