The felling of being left behind happens in different sphere of life. Sometimes you think your friends have left you behind in one aspect and sometimes it looks like you are the one living others behind. So is something that I have experienced not just once and by the grace of God I have been able to overcome.
The image belongs to me.
LEFT BEHIND
When I was 14 years old I was made to believe that I have been left behind. The reason being that I dropped out of school and everyday I sit down to watch my classmates pass in front of my house to go to school. Most of them finished secondary school and went to the higher institution and I was not among them. I loved to go with them, but at that time it was not possible again because there was no one to pay my fees.
It continued until when I was old enough to get married, I had kids still not educated, but at this time and place I noticed that I can push ahead with my studies even though I knew it was not going to be easy, because it demands a lot of money for myself and the children for they were all in school as at that time. That was the struggle.
I made up my mind to go back to school no matter what it will cost me. Trust me because it was not an easy road at all. I had to work extra time to make more money. Sometimes I live the house without food to come back in the evening and I can't even buy anything in school. I struggle through to make sure I wasn't left behind. People started laughing at me and calling me names. My husband was worried because of the money involved, but I told him not to worry that God will provide. God really did it for me and today I am a graduate with second class upper result. Today everyone is so proud of me because I took that bold step to go back to school and I am also happy that I did because I am no longer than same person that was left behind. All glory to God
