Bad days are inevitable; some days, we wake up with a joyful and cheerful heart full of purpose, but sometimes, along the line, we end up with a ruined day.
I remember one day when I was going for an interview, I got to the venue only to remember that I forgot my CV at home. Ha, what do I do now? I asked the receptionist if there were any cybercafes around so I could print out my CV.
She said around No, but if I go across the next street, I will see a cyber cafe there.
I thanked her and went across to the other street, there was no light and they were struggling to turn on the generator.
I was frustrated; I sat down there for what seemed like an eternity; finally, the generator was turned on.
I had my CV printed out for me, and then I rushed back to the venue; you guys won't believe what happened.
The gate was locked; I pressed the gate bell, and I decided to use my hand instead; I knocked and knocked. Nobody answered me.
I just stood there confused, Not knowing if I should cry or start going home.
You see, " music is life." I was too angry, and I didn't want to shed tears so people wouldn't start asking me why I was crying.
A Nigerian songwriter once sang a song: "See, music heals your body, heals your soul, heals your spirit, makes you whole, heal.......so get in the music*.
As soon as I plugged in my air pod and started listening to music, my nerves were gradually coming down.
Every anger and frustration I was feeling inside calmed down.
I just found a place and sat down.
Start playing music, you see music and Ice cream, oh Lord. No matter how angry I am, I hear my favorite music playing or see where my favorite chocolate ice cream is sold. Omo, I go forget the anger that moment.
And enjoy the delicious Ice cream; Na who don chop the get strength to vex or even cry(it's someone that has eaten, that's has the strength to cry or get angry).
So for me, the things that always make me forget a bad day are "music and chocolate ice cream"
You see that day, seeing that they were not going to open the gate for me again. I just walk inside an eatery, buy ice cream, and listen to music. And went home, although I was later called back and got the job.
Thank you for taking the time to read. I love you all
