PROUD OF FOLLOWING THE PATH OF DISCIPLINE AND RESPECT
It took me a while to think of what I can say I am proud of which does not have to concern Hive. I kept on looking at my life and seeing how much I stayed good, how much I have managed peer pressure and how much I have chosen to live a life of inspiration.

In this world we have today, it takes the Grace of God to train a child and he actually abides by it. Why? Because now, a child of this century is easily exposed to things that can lead him astray and it is left for the child to decide whether to follow the morals imbibed by his folks or go his own way.

As for me, I had been exposed to technology at the age of 11. My parents never got a device for me at that age. I got it myself because I love tech, and I love operating them. I saved my money for food at school and starved myself to be able to have enough money to buy phones. I literally change my phones every 4-5 months without the assistance of my parents or without stealing from anybody.
Right from a young age, I knew I had to sacrifice to gain what I want and not pass through the easy route. Not that I haven't stolen before, I have stolen a lot of biro, pen and rulers when I was small and that was because mine was stolen too. You know the pain as a child now.
Not that I was or am all saint, but looking at my life and how many opportunities I had to do things against how I was disciplined, I am proud to be the young man I am today. And I believe my parents can say the same thing.

We should jail you for this. 😂😂
It's nice that you learnt the value of hard work and sacrifice early in life.
That's pretty much all anyone needs to succeed.
I still try talk my own. You no go talk your own?
I've been holy since birth.
I never steal before.
Wow, I can't help but imagine all the sacrifices you've made while growing up. Yes, I'm sure your parents will be super proud of the man you've become.
It's so true, that pain when your new pen, mathematical set, ruler and all get stolen, Chai, the pain nor be here oo.
Thanks so much for your kind words... Yeah, they would be super proud. But they are still much to achieve and more challenges to face. Now we kneel on God to phase through them.
Smiles.. while I was younger, I actually got to like pick pocketing biro and I was good it.
Yes you're right, there are more things to achieve and we pray to God to see us through.
Haha, bad boy 😜😂.
So they stole your pen and pencil and you do the same🤣🤣🤣
You know what, I am proud of the sacrifice you made as a child just to get what you wanted without stealing or relying on your parents to do so. This shows that even as a child at 11, you already know what you want at that age? That's so brilliant of you and that tech skill, you have been pursuing it even now as an adult.
It sounds great 👍👌
Exactly I already knew what I wanted. I think that’s the first step before making any profitable action.
Honestly, In these times of easy exposure, children are left to make choices of which path to follow early in life.
I can’t imagine you did all that. It must have been tough. But I guess your goal would have kept you going.
I also made saving a habit, but not to do something like buy a phone. But just to feel like I have money somewhere😂😂
Technology is really the moving era now and you started quite early enough
