Chioma the righteous

What is going on here!!!

As a sheltered pastor's kid I couldn't believe my eyes

The university scenerie knocked me hard

Male and female students mingling so freely

Those with their beer

Ladies walking around in trousers!!!

The university lifestyle came as a rude shock

I was definitely sure the world would end before my first semester was over

And like the Biblical Jonah

The righteousness in me couldn't stomach the things I was seeing

My God

My God

Rain down fire from above

Suffice it to say by the time I was through my 5 years law program I had gone through my own circle

From criticizing, to wanting to be among and finally making my own resolve of who I wanted to be

I had my fair share of making mistakes but thankfully the good morals from home helped me stay rooted while my experience in school opened my closed up mind to be more acceptable of people

This is not to make excuses for bad behaviours or living without principles

Neither does it advocate support for bad vicesa but

We all come in different shades and forms

What you do or love does not form the basis for living for everyone

The world does not revolve around a singular person

We all sin differently, 

We all make mistakes that shape us to be better persons

Be open,be humane, be more tolerant and forgiving

Life does not end with you.
