Life is all about decision. For one to fulfill destiny there must be decisions that will help accomplish that. We all have one thing or the other that we hold so strongly to probably because it has a way of making us happy or fulfilled in life.

All thanks to #hiveghana for bringing up these three great topics for the week and I am delighted to pick one of them to talk about. I want to share what is not negotiable in my life. I find fulfilment in doing it and I believe that I can not negotiate it with anything no Matter what.
MY PASSION TO HELP THE POOR AND LESS PRIVILEGED IN THE SOCIETY
This is so dear to me and I am holding unto God to help me carry it out even till my last day on earth. It gives me joy to lift a burden from someone going through pains. Though sometimes I may not be financially stable to always carry it out the way I want, but I still do something no matter how little.
I have heard people talk about what is not negotiable for them as their: integrity, self worth and what have you. But for me I take pleasure in looking out for the less privileged and I don't want to trade that for anything in the world. When we say - the less privileged, we have the widows, orphans and the poor amongst us. But I take my concern for the widows, I can't really place my hands on the main reason why, but I know that I saw my mother all my life as a widow and I also saw all her struggles to take care of us as her children. I also noticed that because she couldn't take proper care of us, she decided to give us out to relates who turned us into what they wanted not minding wether that is the best for us. At first I wasn't that happy with what my mother did because I was still little then, but now that I am all grown up with my kids and I see what widows go through to sustain their families I try to forgive her. I know that all she did was to make sure we have good lives when we grow up, but it didn't turn out that way because we were never given the opportunity to dream let alone achieve our dreams.
Because of what I experienced as a little girl raised by another person because my mother could not take care of us because she is a widow and all responsibility was left for her. I have developed a love for the widows and that love grows everyday and all I desire for the widows around me is to give them a better life.
I know that I may not be that person that I wished to be right now, but I believe strongly in the God of impossibilities. I have also tried my best to bring widows close to me and help in anyway I can, and I know that is not enough. I believe that I will do more when I am financially stable.
This particular passion for helping the widows I don't want to trade it with anything in the world. This is what gives me joy and I love seeing them happy and smiling. This is who I am and am not ready to negotiate it for anything
