Ever wondered how it feels, that there are some kinda very important people in this world, they are popular, rich and famous. You think of your self so little beside them. What fills your mind is just one opportunity to see one of them and you will take a whole load of pictures and post them on Facebook, Instagram or your WhatsApp status, so that your friends can view you as someone that has met a celebrity. It feels good tho! But have you also wondered that some people out there are also looking at you as a celebrity. Tho, you might not be rich, famous or popular but you have something in you that makes you stand out. No matter who you are in this world, someone out there is looking up to you, someone out there is wanting to do the things you do, someone out there is looking for just one opportunity to take a picture with you. You might as well be wondering that "who is this somebody" well, you haven't found out because you haven't paid attention to that phase of your life. You spend most of your time paying attention to people you want to meet, you even go to the extent of stalking them,neglecting those who want to meet you. Well, pay attention to this ones and you become a celebrity in their hearts. Finally, everyone in this world matters. You are also a celebrity in your own way. Be optimistic.

I remember waking up one random morning with a nudge that I was going to serve in Bayelsa and the first thing I did was to open google and search for opportunities in the financial sector of the state. I found out that there was a CBN branch located in Yenagoa and probably that was where the "Lord was sending me to". Ever since then, I've always told those around me that I would serve in Bayelsa. Every time my Mum heard that, she would immediately reject it for me because it is not her daughter that would go for service in a very distant location. After a very long while (Covid and a sprinkle of OAU), it was finally time to register for NYSC. All my attempts to select four states were futile. I kept on seeing "no states available" and in the end, I regis...
Wise saying.
