Somewhere, a child is born yet in another, a life is lost While someone is making a fortune, another person is losing it all Someone somewhere is leaping for joy while someone is wallowing in tears Someone has way too much to eat while someone somewhere is starving to death
Is it then fair to say that life isn't fair?
While someone is living in sound health, another is accustomed to pain One baby is born into riches, yet another into misery Someone is living in a peaceful land Yet another's land is a war zone
It seems like life has different sides, Different folks are seeing different views That's why it's important to be kind, you never know what a person is going through Certain things are just beyond explanation Sometimes, life feels like a mystery.
Grateful
I'm grateful for the air that I breathe I'm thankful for the soil on which I stand Blessed are the foods that I eat I'm immensely grateful for my health Thankful for the lessons I was privileged to learn from my past I'm full of gratitude seeing the beauty of this present moment I'm thankful for my five senses (and the sixth) I'm grateful for the manifested and the yet to manifest blessings I'm thankful for the blessings hidden in challenges I'm thankful for life in its fullness.
Tolulope Ibiyode
My name is Tolulope, usually called Tolu (easier to pronounce lol). I like to call myself “Gods1son”. I was born in Nigeria and did most of my education there before moving to Canada where I currently live. I work as a Web Developer, I enjoy my work. I was an Agriculture student for almost 6 years before crossing to the I.T field. I love it.
Ever since I found a passion in writing, it’s been one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy computer programming. I play squash to unwind.
I enjoy writing about life, in general, which includes but not limited to social issues, love, technology, myself, God. I will love to publish books someday (I hope soon). But it would be something I’ll be doing by the side. You can follow his work on IG & twitter: @gods1son_
