Those who know me well will tell you that I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. My parents concurrently imbued in us a firm value of faith and hard work - for faith without works is dead (James 2:14-26). Growing up without a television set at home wasn’t fun, however the set of children’s encyclopaedia that my parents got us served as a big window to my imagination - through reading I found a world of limitless dreams, aspirations and opportunities . At a tender age I knew exactly who I wanted to become and how to get to him. I also understood that my faith will lead me, yet it’ll require hard work and huge sacrifices to follow. Fast forward to today, I find myself exactly where I am supposed to be.
The greatest sacrifices were made my by parents, who deprived themselves of time with their teenage boy and were willing to let him leave them for a journey ten thousand miles away so he could fulfill his dream. All credit belongs to God and them.
Dream big and chase it.
