Never say "Never"

If before this minute you have not put your feet into my shoes, walked a mile the path l have crossed then its best you don’t judge me because you have heard about me but you know nothing about my journey.

It is always easy to say “l will never do that” when you are not in a situation that drove the other person to do the exact thing. Many ladies would say “me l would never be a prostitute regardless of how stranded l am” yet when you date a man his financial status is off great importance and is on top of the list of  your “Potential man characteristics” , believe it or not the moment you have sex with a man and he uses his money to buy you this and that on a regular, when you need money he immediately sends it then that is a transactional sex, you give him your body to do whatever  in return he gives you all materialistic things you want,  you have it easy cause you do not need to wear skimpy clothes and stand the street corners but none the less you are doing exactly what that woman at the street corner is doing. Be careful of being too focused trying to remove a stain from someone’s eye when you yourself have thousand stains on your eye.

We forever say nobody is perfect but none of us is willing to accept another person’s imperfection yet we expect our own imperfections to be accepted and understood. A man would say “l will never have an affair when married” but he does not know how it feels like being married, it is said women change after marriage, the passion no longer feels the same and that beautiful woman that was once open minded, understanding and adventurous and now dealing with too many responsibilities and less time to consider that life could actually be just fine if she just calmed down and had little fun. A man begins to see the “her that she used to be before marriage in another woman”. Well l will never understand truly what makes married men cheat but l just made a possible example that’s highly my assumption. I am saying never say never.

Every situation we are in is just simply temporary. You could say l will never be in prison yet next thing you accidentally hit someone on the road, they die and you are then charged with charges of murder or you could be in a taxi and it gets involved in an accident, next thing through the whole commotion someone’s blood spills on your open wound, not knowing that the very same person is HIV positive next thing you are left with a new status. Situations change within a second hence it is said the bad don’t last forever neither does the happiness.

The battle we fight might be the same but the battlefield will be different for all of us. Don’t compare my story to yours cause they will never measure up to each other neither will you understand the steps l take if you never heard the call l got.  Never say “Never”
