Disappointed, not disqualified

My people! I hope we are all enjoying our day in our respective places. Well done guys. May God bless all our efforts. I have come to give my entry on the issue of trust and disappointment. I think it's a universal topic of interest, that excludes no one. It baffles me at times even when my rich friends complain about disappointment. So it can happen to anyone. Mine was even funny but taught me a lot of lessons.

Years ago I struggled to write my senior school certificate examinations and I passed excellently. Due to lack of financial capacity at the time, I decided to work at a tutorial centre to get some money to register for the next examination (JAMB) for admission into university. Working at the tutorial centre as a secretary was of great benefit to me, because I used to stay at the window and stylishly learn from various teachings at the centre. I was also free and friendly to the students as they were my age group, but I don't compromise the standard of the institute for anything.

While I was still trying to get funds for my exam, a friend reached out to me and offered to send me some money to register for the exam but asked me to send my account details because he was far in the East. Unfortunately, I had no bank account as at then to send to him. And he told me to send any trusted account that day. So, I reached out to one of my trusted students in the tutorial centre where I work and requested her account details.

Immediately I sent it to my friend, the lady received the alert and promised to withdraw it for me and bring it along the following day. Alsa! That was the last day I saw the girl at the tutorial centre. I was full of joy the day my friend sent the money and was so hopeful to get the money and register for my exam but she never came back to give me the money. I was devastated, betrayed , disappointed and broken. I cried for many days and threw in the towel. It was a sad experience and I wondered if she didn't have any conscience to prick her.

Eventually, God provided as I got advance payment at work just to register for the examination. God so good, I passed the examination and I gained admission into the university. After several months on campus, I bumped into on a fateful day. My head sparked like fireworks. I gripped my head and kept turning on a spot. I never knew what to do. I didn't know if I should shout, grip her or just walk away. I was so hurt but I managed to approach her. I asked her why she did such wickedness to me, but all she could say was that I shouldn't shout at her because of a little change. I couldn't say nor do anything.

Tears rolled down my cheeks and I just walked away. Little wonder God regretted He created man because his thought was always evil. I walked away and left her to God. He is the chief judge.Ever since, I rarely trust any man. I do put humans in his position, trust me, when you do, you will not be disappointed.
