Contest Alert ⚠️: What I would do better if I can travel back in time.

Hello...
I am @peacebala
From Nigeria

If time can be reversed back I am very sure that I am going to do my very best in everything I do. Life has its mistakes and some of us while coming up under our parents we never listened, we felt we have our little life to live so if any work is given to us, we do it sluggishly but time is the true definition of every misbehaviour in life.

✅What are the things you think you should have done better.

I should have done alot that I am regretting now. I lost my dad years ago and I remember when I was 15 exactly, my father was always careful on me that I do not miss it in life and all I was thinking was that my father does not want to give me a free life.

I kept complaining until the day I realised that daddy was no more. Daddy wanted me to be that great child but with laziness stubborness I am still left behind. My mate are now in the university but sometimes when my dad was alive, I prefer following my mother to the market than to go to school and my father kept begging and at some point, I go to school at wish but today I am regretting and wishing that I did all my father was wanting me to do.

✅How long did it take you to realize you missed that privilege or opportunity to do something better and how did you feel.

I didn't even realise it immediately the death of my dad, I was still feeling comfortable and confident that I have my mother to look in to but the point where I realised that my mother cannot occupy both the space of daddy and her own space as a mother was when mummy started leaving me at home alone with my younger ones to go to the market to sell so we can eat.

Imagine what life has become for us, I was now wishing daddy is a life to stay home and watch over my younger ones while I follow mummy to the market once in a whole and then carryy books to read to become what my daddy always wanted me to be.

✅Give advice to your reader who might be treading at the moment the same path as you.

To my fellow friends, please let's make good use of our time, take every opportunity very seriously, love yourself by doing the right thing at the right time. Alot of people like myself have realised it and I so wish that time can be taken back again but it's obviously not possible.

I wish we could predict tomorrow from today, our lives would have been a very careful one, we would have taken our steps gradually. Be watchful and do the needful now that you have the whole chance.
