MY ONE CHANCE STORY!

On a lighter note, these are some  funny questions I was asked:

Them:"Is this your first time of been robbed?"
Me: ehen, it has turn to new yam festival abi..."

Them: so how did you feel ?
Me: in fact I was very happy...because it has to turn to good thing ba"

Them: So they took your money
Me: ehen, they came to play with me ni. 😂😂

but seriously, those guys are not smiling again o. They had a POS machine with them, so all those people who were saying you should have given them a wrong pin my advice is don't even try it because the beating that will follow ehn....chai!

Let me not bore you with the long gist, I would love to share a few lessons I learnt from the experience:

1. When you get into a public transport, the first thing you should take should not be your phone. As soon as I entered the Bus, the first thing I took was my phone, I was thinking to myself what if those guys wanted to kidnap me, that is how I would have been carried away with my phone. In fact when they striked I was still with  my phone.......lesson for someone.

2 It's never too late to talk to God!. He is a good father, so when it dawned on me that I had entered one chance.. I started speaking in tongues, at a stage my bible helped me as one of the guys held on to it...you could see the unwillingness in him.

3. Never be in a hurry, I was in so much hurry that I did not carefully look into the bus to notice the faces in there.

4. Always trust your instinct... after sometime I realised the guy beside me was telling the driver to be going when he got to a bus stop, I looked at him like: excuse me are you the owner of the bus...when he noticed I looked at him he looked outside the window. Well for me, I still went on replying my messages on WhatsApp.

I was favored enough though, the guys told me to stop crying that they would park properly so I would get down, they arranged my bag and gave N1000 equivalent to $3.25 as my transport fare. 😂 funny guys yeah.

In all if you have ever been in this shoes, and you are still mad at God, (to think that i even prayed before leaving my house, "God but you should have told me na...lol with your phone in your hand ?... How na?) you should have a rethink, I am most grateful those guys did not throw me out of a moving vehicle, my mum knows  someone who lost his life from there.

I am grateful I was not beaten.
I am grateful I was not raped.

Do you have lessons you feel others can learn from..? Feel free to share in the comment box.
