He relaxed back on his sit, took a deep breathe in reflection and gently answered her with this:

“You see, Perro Adeniyi who gave birth to my first son graduated from a top UK University as a medical student and is now a doctor. 

She is very beautiful and intelligent from a very wealthy family”. He continued “Sandra who gave birth to my other two kids is a dealer in expensive diamond and gold jewelries. She was already a multi-millionaire when I met her, she owns one of the most expensive houses in Banana Island. Her family too are very well to do”. He took another deep breathe and continued “Sumbo who gave birth to 2 kids for me is also a very intelligent first class Lawyer. She has worked on and won many big cases for so many wealthy men and women in this country and abroad, that’s how she made her money and she Too is very beautiful as well”.

Then with a loving gentle smile on his Face he took another deep breathe and said this “But you see Annie is from an average background like myself, we both started from nothing. She stuck by me through it all. When there was no car she hopped on bikes, took the bus and trekked with me, when there was no money or house or hit songs or or millions of albums sold or big awards and accolades, when I used to repeat just 3 sets of clothes, she would always hold my head, look into my eyes and tell me things will be fine one day. When I wasn’t handsome, she would call me her Prince Charming, when I wasn’t celebrated, she called me her KING and said she is my number one fan and to this day she still is. Even when I made it big as a musician and started misbehaving and controversies almost destroyed my career, she would go down on her knees and pray to God to show me the way and give me victory over my enemies. 

Now if I was still that poor boy struggling to make it like every other young chap on the streets of Lagos, do you think a Doctor, a Lawyer and a multi-millionaire business woman will want to look at me twice or even have my kids? NO. So to answer your question, I didn’t chose who had more to offer me, I chose Annie because she offered me her all when we had very little”

Many times, life throws challenges at us, be it tough circumstances, or past mistakes, that might make us feel like giving up. You might think that you have strayed too far from your path or that you are too old to start fresh, but remember, it is never too late. As long as you can tap into what God has placed within you, there is always a way to push forward. As the saying goes, "It's never too late to be what you might have been."

I consider the richest place on earth to be the graveyard. This is not because of the minerals underground, but because so many people are buried with dreams unfulfilled and potentials untapped. Don't let that be you. Why be part of the majority who leave this earth with their greatest contributions unmade, when you could be among the 1% who discover and fulfill their true potential?

If you are already on the journey of self-discovery but feel held back by a lot of challenges, ask yourself if you have really given it your all. Yes, the path to discovering your potential is not an easy one, it demands hard work, perseverance, and a lot of resilience. When you feel stuck, it is often just your response to the overwhelming demands of life, whether from family, work, or personal goals. The key to moving forward is finding balance and managing these pressures in a constructive way.

Taking care of your mental and physical health is very important on this journey. Make sure to set aside a little time each day for yourself, even if it is just a few minutes to relax, read, or enjoy a hobby. Spending more time with yourself helps you discover more about who you are. This not only recharges you but also keeps you grounded and focused.

And remember, once you reach your full potential, the responsibility doesn’t end there. Share your achievements with the world. Inspire others by showing them that no matter the odds, reaching one's full potential is not just a dream but a reality that can be achieved.

Don’t limit yourself by your circumstances. Rise above them, and strive towards the fulfillment of your true potential. Like Nelson Mandela once said, “It always seems impossible until it's done.” So, why not start today? Make that decision to give it one more try, to push a little harder, and to believe a little stronger in your ability to achieve greatness.

I BELIEVE IN YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
