I woke up one day and I realised that there were many things
about my life I was not satisfied with or better still, there
were challenges that were threatening my soul.
And I said to myself, "Why should anyone envy me and want
to be in my shoes." They don't know how far I've come, they
don't know what lies ahead of me, and neither do they know
how dissatisfied I get with myself from time to time.
People don't know the troubles that you've had or the price
you had to pay to get where you are. All they want to know
is that they wish they were like you.
Why should you wish you were in some other persons shoes when you
hardly know how they fit?
When you've worn your shoes for a while, they take the shape
of your feet and align to the way you walk. If you were to
wear my shoes, you will not be comfortable in them.
So I stopped wishing that I am in someone else shoes because
it might not fit; rather I thank God for my shoes, because
THEY FIT PERFECTLY :-)
I have learnt to be the best in what I do, and I know no-one
can replace me anywhere and in any sphere.
I am an original, my God is not in the cloning business.
He make originals!
