We are not just taught every single thing in school, just like they don't teach you what life is after schooling so is it with most vital aspect of our lives, most of this things we learn while growing up so was this aspect of me that was developed. This is me using this medium to wish you all a happy new month, hope everything is going on perfectly fine at your end? It is a pleasure having you back here again and today I would be participating on the contest topic which says:
š Tell us about something you never learned but could do conveniently. It could be a talent, skill, or anything.
If you have been reading my posts you would know that in some cases I have started that I am an extrovert even though I like to tell people that I am an introvert sometimes, I always speak out when I feel the urge most especially when things are not going right and no one wants to talk, I always have something to say in defense when someone wants to bring me down, I don't just like it when people wants to show off in front of me trying to make me less because at that moment this talkative would always be sharp to show you that I am worth more than rubies.
There was an occasion in school where we were having a general class tutorial where students at different levels come together for one or two things, the lessons was divided into different classes I and my friend happened to be in the same class, during the lessons I noticed that a particular girl was just there pressing her phone and if the person standing is asking questions she is left out so I asked if she is also a student and if she's here for the same teaching, the responses I got was that she is always acting like that because she knows most of what they are teaching so she don't want to associate or even answer questions, at that moment I understood what she was doing trying to claim I know it all, so I made a remark at the end of the class even though others said I should just leave her alone and my remark was "we are all here to learn and if you feel you know it all please stay in your house because in the next class we would not be tolerating any nonchalant attitude or anyone that is pressing their phones"
My point here is everyone felt it was okay with what she was doing and that she should be left alone but after that day I never saw in her that practical class again. I never learnt how to stand up for myself, I never attended any class of been bold and outspoken, I never learnt how to prioritize myself it was the experiences of life that shaped me, there was even a point where one of my friend here in school told me that because she's running her program in NCE people use to see her less, and after been around me she told me that from now on anybody that is talking less about her she would call me to come and defend her because she is an introvert and doesn't like talking too much, at that point we both laughed at what she said.
At some point people would say as a woman am not suppose to be talking too much, or am too bold or many other silly reasons but I know I didn't create myself I just grew up to be this me, God know why He put that in me so I use it to the best of my abilities, and one thing with me is that I have never used this side of me to oppress people because I have experienced that and wouldn't want that for anybody.
It's so nice sharing these experience with you and I pray you would enjoy the rest of the days of this month, I love, honour and appreciate you all š„°š.
