Obaba Museum

Sometimes ago I picked up the bucket containing my Aloe Vera plant. It felt really good to see how healthy it looked. I was so thrilled with the sight that I told my sister to take a snapshot of my Aloe with a healthy green look☺️.
Flashback to the previous year when I planted it, I had concluded after few months that the shoot was death, I had in fact given up on it but just decided to leave it in the bucket because it was given to me by a big sister I love and respect so much. I was surprised to see after a long while that it had grown and spread out pretty well.

A deep reflection on this little incident made me realise that God uses various things especially nature to speak to us. There are many things I observed from the Aloe Vera asides the quality of perseverance and endurance. When our current circumstance feels like a wreck, the promise and hope of a great future is enough motivation to keep pushing.

It is a known truth that people only reward results, not the process. You rarely see pictures of goldsmiths online refining a raw gold bar. But you definitely have seen a lot of pictures of people rocking gold jewelry and bling on the social media.
In relationships likewise, people are oblivious to the fact that every happy couple or housemate are just better at forgiving each other’s excesses. Just like the Aloe, patience, trust and faith are vital ingredients to growing and sustaining relationships.

Not the kind of post you were expecting, right? But thanks for reading anyway.
