"I can tell a story, Pt 2".

Warmest greetings from my own part of the world. Hope you all are doing good, I am good too!
I would like to say thank you to @saintkelvin17 for hosting the contest. Now I invite my friends to join this contest. @aviral123 @ninapenda @hisgeneral.

Out of the numerous topics given by @saintkelvin17 to choose and write a story, I choose this particular topic; "There is time for everything"

The most paramount and most valuable thing to a man that once it's is lost or wasted,cannot be gained, bought or retrieved back again. No amount of money in this planet can buy time, not even one second can be bought. Time is priceless!!

So that is why as humans we are expected to make or untilize our time in the most effective and efficient way, cause anytime wasted is a great lost and cannot be gained back.

Even the Holy Bible make emphasis on the importance of time, and it also says that "there is time for everything both on earth and beyond"

MY STORY

It is about a young girl in my neighborhood and I title it, "There is time for everything".

Source

A young girl in my neighborhood who was just 16years when she started dating.. dating here I mean she already had a boyfriend at that tender age, without knowing what it really means to be in a relationship or to have a boyfriend.

She started the relationship without the knowledge of her parents and elder ones, it was a secret between just her and the guy who she is in a relationship with. The guy to in the other hand did not tell the important people in his life because he knows very well that the lady was still too young for what he is asking her to go into with him because he is fully aware that "There is time for everything"

Her parents later found out that she was seeing someone without their knowledge, I do not really know how they parents got to found out Sha, but I just know that they got to know a long the way. When they found out, they talked to her about the implication of what she was actually into, they tried so had to make her understand that it's not yet time for her to go into a relationship because"There is time for everything"

But the lady refused adhering to the teaching and advice of her parent, they even gave the girl the beating of her life just to ensure that they young girl cut things with the guy, but she was too stubborn and adamant to listen to them. She went ahead and continued with the relationship without the support of her parents, forgetting the fact that "There is time for everything" and it is not her time yet, but her stubbornness will not allow her see reasons with her parent. She was actually feeling that she has already arrived since she was in ss1 by then.

Few months later, the lady was found pregnant and she dropped out of school because, her parents vowed not to sponsor her again, since she refused to listen to their advice and decided to bring shame to the family name. The most unfortunate thing about the whole situation is that the guy ran after finding out that the girl was pregnant. He knows fully well that he isn't ready to be a father yet, but he refused to be patient and wait for his time, forgetting that "There is time for everything".

To cut the whole story short, the guy didn't returned since then till now, they lady in the other hand was abandoned by her family and was Left with no option than to give birth to her child out of wedlock and she had to struggle and work so hard to fent for herself and the baby at a very tender age, because she refused to wait for the right time. She has been suffering and is still suffering till now because she did not really understand or rather refused to accept that "There is time for everything".

Moral Lessons:

1. It is important that as children, always live and act in obedience to our parents advice and instructions.

2. Endeavor to live your life wisely, living with the consciousness that "There is time for everything"

3. Always make sure that you make use of your time judiciously. Knowing fully well that time wasted and misused cannot be retrieved.

4. And lastly, do not go into any relationship when you are not yet ready to take responsibilities for your actions.

Finally, I want to live us with this word "Do not fast forward your life, do not rush into doing something when it isn't the right time yet, live your life wisely, patiently and consciously because"There is time for everything".

Thank you all for stopping by🥰
