Purpose

What is purpose? Dictionary meaning explains it’s a reason for which something is created or for which something exists. Synonyms are objective, reason, and intention. What is your purpose here on earth? As for me, for the fact you’re alive and living; there’s a reason to it. And what’s that reason? I’ve heard so many people say that they are here to become successful, gain money and serve God in between, but do you really think that’s why you are created? I read a quote once and it says “the two most important days of your life is the day you were giving birth to and the day you realize why you were giving birth to, the purpose in which you were brought forth” We may say we were giving birth to because our parents needed children, yeah, I’m not disputing that fact but that’s in the physical sense.

You won’t be misled, so he said, you just have to do this so you will become mature. The look on his face ensured me that he wasn’t going to leave me heartbroken just as Solomon did, ‘No he can’t’ I assured myself. Slowly I let him pull off the wrapper I was holding on to tightly and let his hand do the rest. At that moment I knew I was going to be matured, at last, no more mockery and loneliness, I was going to be a WOMAN. The first month after the experience with Emeka was the best time of my life, he made me feel love, yes LOVE, he made me know what love felt like, he supported and made me the woman I always wanted to be; the ‘girl’ all the lady eyed in the campus. I was no longer a girl, they knew that. I had tasted what they all boasted about, the best part of it was that it wasn’t just anybody, it was Emeka.  Who is there?
