Am going to be sharing a story with you and I hope it inspires and motivates you to become stronger in will and brave to face every challenge your facing now.

Man is always in a battle to survive. Sorrounded by overwhelming darkness and eventhough we are pressed on every side we keep fighting to survive.

Starting from the worm we had to battle with millions of other sperm cells to be alive. I have wondered for quiet awhile now, why children are born with hands closed like the fist of a fighter. Are they already preparing to fight the fight of life?

I ask myself daily why is everything so desperate to keep living? A tree cut down struggles to grow again! A fow been slaughtered fights to remain alive. Everything in Nature is in a constant battle for suvival.

Why this Desperation to Live? What am I living for?

After a while of thinking and meditating on this petinent question. I couldn't give definite answers for why nature fights to live hovever I came to discover why I still fight to live.

I grew up in a country full of an overwhelming sense of negativity. Corruption ravaging the country and people like us from poor backgrounds where not really permitted to dream big becuase we couldnt afford the cost of of dreaming big. In my country the rich kept growing richer and the poor growing poorer. My parents advised me "Son, always mind the lowly things, when you go to school do not associate with does rich corrupt children. Make friends only with the 'humble'(as in poor) children in school."

Sincerely I believed in alot of things my parent said but I never for once accepted mediorcrity or even believed I was less than any person else. Deep down in my heart I loved my parents but I didnt feel comfortable about the quality of life my parents where living. So I made up my mind that I would become the greatest change that every existed iny country.

So in school I studied so hard and worked so hard to always be first. A later nicknamed myself Spirit of Excellence. I said to myself anything I layed my hands to do I would become the best at it. This particular motivation sparked in me what I later referred to as The will of fire which is the the will to never give up no matter what!!.

So in high school I had become a huge sensation in school. I had made alot of friends in school by that time both the rich and poor. No body looked at me as the poor guy from a poor family. Rather they saw me as the gifted guy from a humble background. I had fought so hard to erase that stigma unfortunately some people
still looked down on me but it didnt stop me.

My parents where still very scared and shy to identify with the level of fame that I had attained. Later in the university I had to graduate as one of the best students in the whole university from thr department of Physics.

I was a plant planted in thr darkness but I sought for the Light earnestly and I found it.
I later came to the conclusion that what gave me a reason to live was My Believe.

There is no darkness stronger than your will. There is no mistake with where you were born, accept it and become the change you seek.

I Believe I was born to bring change to my country and thst is what am living for!! That is my purpose. I will cause the poor to dream again! I will will cause the lowly in heart to walk boldly on streets of my country again.

Who am I? I AM JUST ANOTHER LOWLY BOY WHO BELIEVES HE CAN BRING CHANGE
