His lessons for disregarding his faith.

Half a decade ago was a brilliant child from one of the Western States of Africa, He was a very outstanding child and the very learned among his peers in school. He was the only one among his peers who was from a broken home and had a handicapped background but was the one gifted with a vast and a 'tremendous head' of capturing anything he's being thought in a marvelous way.

He knew more and more at his stage and grew everyday to be abreast with much knowledge. But his unfortunate block of life to him was his background because he always finds it very difficult to get supported. He still never looked back to all these stanzas of life to him as a young boy but he only always got thrilled with the sensation of his faith as he always thought of it to be a tangible aspect that will become part of him in his future. He had strong beliefs but nevertheless was his misconception of 'Faith' until when his trail time came for him to learn his lesson. A time came in his life after his struggles and that of his single mother who tried very hard to still keep him and his siblings in school was then when he had to undertake his first biggest examination in order to graduate into high school. He was in 'high hopes' by then and had beliefs in himself of making his mother and his school very proud but he believed in only himself and thought of himself as all knowing and underestimated his faith. Few days for him to start writing his examination his mother started pressuring him to contend with his faith but he turned a deaf ear to her and only focused on his books and only on his own capabilities to achieving distinctions in his examinations. The last day for his preparation came very soon and on that day was a Sunday when his mother asked him to join her to church but to the dismay of all he said, 'Mum I couldn't risk the last time to church at the expense of learning' and he didn't join his family to church on that day but stayed at home all day to learn. The next day came for him to start his examination and he wrote all papers within a week and gave his very best but had difficulties believing in his only capabilities during the examination period. The week for his examination passed and results got released after 3 months but to his disappointment he being the best student in school had a second class results that he never expected and all his friends came ahead of him. This got him sick for days until he became a bit relieved of the pain but continued to live with in in his hearts through out his high school days until he grew to realize his mistake of disregarding his faith.
