Hmmmm..
STAND ALONE NARRATIVE
TIRED OF LIFE
I feel like ending it all. I'm at the brink already.
To think I read, prayed and fasted for this job but still just got a rejection mail. I really wanted this job. In my present job, I earn 80k. How do I save for rent, sustain the little drop shipping business I do, send upkeep to my mum, complete my mum's house, eat, transport, get a professional certificate or go for my Masters.
It's not easy been a girl child who is fending for herself without any help. I have been too strong for too long. Where do I start from?
Is this how my life is going to be? No help from anywhere. I currently save 60% of my salary but it doesn't cover anything.
I work hard, I am tech savvy but no good job.. Is there a God that answers prayers. Does God exist? I can't live this way. This is not life.
At almost 30, I'm still squatting. I even can't afford rent.
What do I do? Please, tell me.
I am so tired. Please, tell me it would pass over..
You have a Job and earn some money, there are some who have nothing and do not know where their next meal is coming from....
You want to end it all at 30 because of these reasons? Are you asking of God exists? You are a very ungrateful human being... You have it going so good, if you hear some peoples stories, you will thank God for where you are!
In all things give thanks, a lot of people have it worst and are still grateful for the gift of life. Good afternoon Stella mama and Blog BVs
ReplyDeletego to altar of any church, where you can be alone, Cry out your frustration to God and have faith, i beg you miracle will locate you in less than a year..
Deletejust be patience..it will be fine...
Yes God of the Eleventh hour will show up. The night is darkest before the Dawn. Take it easy for now. Let everyone know you cant meet their expectations. You cant kill yourself. Please your health First. Don't give up, try another opportunity again and God will come through for you. I understand what you are going through but happiness/patience is key to achieving life's dreams.
Delete90percent of the comments are attacking the poster forgetting that not everyone handles things the same way.
DeleteDear poster, I am here to tell you, you are doing okay, I am proud of you, God will show up, do not give up.
Most times we get tired because we never hear any word of encouragement, she's providing for her mum and herself, yes some people earn less, but even those people sit and think or lament.
She's just tired and needs encouragement.
My dear Nigeria of today is not easy, because a lot of competition stares us in our face, bills keep increasing but as long as there's life there's hope.
Do not give up, let your mum also start something, even if it's food stuff business so she doesn't have to depend solely on you.
Give God thanks
It's not always easy to do so
But ask for His help as much as you can.
He will see you through
Hey hang in there. Is not yet over. Some people dnt even earn dat much like u! Some are still home.
DeleteTry get some online courses! There are people who train people on interview! Package ur CV well nd keep applying. One will click OK. Dnt give up yet.
N80k in this time, not easy but don't give up my dear. Keep trusting and praying to God.
DeleteSome can eat but have no food, you have food and you can eat,
DeleteThank you Lord for everything.
Remember this song!
It's better you turn your prayer request to thanks,God does exist and he'll come through for you
ReplyDeleteI am like seriously? You have a job that you get paid up to 80k unlike others and you are still complaining this much? I don't know what to say to you o..
ReplyDeleteThis one no get problem NAA!!
ReplyDeleteCry out your frustration to God. Your breakthrough is around the corner.
ReplyDeleteYou even have a job that earns 80k and you want to end your life? Wow!!! People are so ungrateful to God. And why are you putting yourself under such pressure. Imagine, building a house for my mum
ReplyDeleteYou're so desperate to do it all at once, breathe and do the little you can. Some have no job, but smiling and being hopeful. Some are earning half of what you're earning with more responsible, but still thankful and grateful to God. But what of you? You want to die. Mshewwwww
No mind am..
ReplyDeleteA lot of guys earn less than that and still even find a way to support you girls, but you ungrateful entitled elements would still come here to broke shame his hustling ass..
"It's not easy been a girl child who is fending for herself without any help." See her mouth.. it's guys it's easy for.
It's the entitlement, suicide blackmail and victim card for me..
Mtcheew
Oh shut it please,you are beginning to sound like an off-key musical note…
DeleteOde.. shebi na you buy data for me bah.. I'll continue to sound that way for people like you weh no won get sense.. you'll keep hearing the bitter truth 🤤
DeleteDid i just heard her said she earned 80k per month, oh wow!!! This world no balance at all, if i get that 80k job right now i no thank GOD. with all am going through right now, let me just keep quite. When there's life surely there's hope, thank GOD for life, be contented poster, dont be greedy, with that more success will come your way. ONE LOVE.
DeleteHmmmm. Poster, I earn 20k per month. Before I got married last year, I was earning 50k per month in Lagos. 3 months to my wedding, my salary was increased to 100k per month but I had to resign after 2 months to get married. Relocated to my husband base and got a job that is paying me just 20k per month. I'm a lawyer oh! This is after spending 5 years in the University, 1 year at the law school, graduating with 2:1 and having 5 years working experience.
DeleteI don't have the motivation to work because my salary cannot feed me for 2 weeks in this economy. If I see a job that will pay me even 50k now, I will thank God.
So please, in all things, always give thanks to God. So many people have it worse than you. You don't have to contemplate suicide because things are not going how you planned. Always have a positive attitude and trust in God.
Poster you're doing well for yourself.. in all appreciate what you have... Appreciate your humble beginning.. you're even earning well compared to many.. just be grateful and never loose hope on God..
ReplyDeletePoster I'm in your shoes. We probably work in the same organisation for all I know. If you kill yourself, your mother will kuku suffer it and your ghost (if there's such) will watch in anguish. Pick a hustle you desperately need to advance and focus on it. You can't have it all at this stage. I feel your pain. There's nothing prayers can't solve. You'll get relief
ReplyDeleteBe grateful!!
ReplyDeletePoster na wa for you oh, some people no even get job. Some people dry earn 40k salary with degree o.
ReplyDeleteSome people no see roof make e be say dem dey squat.
Some people no even fit see shikini money start business/dropshiping.
U wan die? U wan kill urself?
Who tell you say God no dey?
With this ur mindset you fit do crazy thing we go over you.
Abeg begin count your blessings.
E go better, e don dey better suppose be your daily anthem.
Be grateful and one day you will be surprised.
As e be say you never fit see helper you go stab earth? My mom used to say 'I ga egbu uwa nma'?
😳😳😳😳😳🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️
ReplyDeleteWith this mindset, you aren't going to see or know the God Almighty your creator. Jesus did not go to the cross for you to get a "better job or get a Master's degree..." It is all in the falsehood that many has believed and have been robbed of the Truth. Listen to Jesus;
ReplyDeleteMark 8: 36What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
So as it is, you have placed your mom's house, masters, better paying jobs etc. above the knowledge of God and salvation of your soul.
Think it through and begin to seek God to worship him for who he is and not for what you can get from him. All other things will be added to you
if you seek him with all your heart.
You are so ungrateful!
ReplyDeleteTry being unemployed maybe you go under the true definition of Life!
Please don't be like this.
ReplyDeleteTheres God
Don't worry life will turn out well.
You will be fine
My dear better start thanking your God. I love pay check to pay check.for almost two years my hubby was jobless, I had a baby and had to cover a lot of expenses. This started in 2019 and just recently he got a job. But I’m flat broke. I have no money to my name. But everyday and night before I sleep I thank God that I have a job, I thank him for providing food and roof, I thank him that we can afford even to feed our baby. I thank him that my cricket car is not a range yet but I don’t stay under the rain waiting for bus to get to work. I’m not where I’m supposed to be, but you know what I always thank God with actually a very grateful heart. Try this please. Imagine if you didn’t have a job at all .
ReplyDeletePlease do not be ungrateful to God. Someone needs a job of 50k at the moment now but could not even see any. Please be grateful to God that you have sometime doing. It is one thing at a time. Do not kill yourself o. you are far better than some people.
ReplyDeleteLet me go anon on this
ReplyDeleteI hardly comment on chronicles but I will today
You earn 80k and you are complaining
Well done
I earn 35k, lives in Lagos, life is .......(Don't want to say hard)
But you know what
I won't end my life, I won't give up either.... because I believe something better is on my way
So my dear, don't, ....keep pressing....one day it go better
If you hear some people’s problems you will know you are living large.Give thanks to God my dear and only do what you can for your family.if you kill yourself,they will move on o.
ReplyDeleteI am 30 but have no single source of income, don't give up, the Lord is your strength, It is well dear.
ReplyDeletePoster don't be a simpleton please! Don't have this simple mind all around..It will do you no good...When God was to send out the Israelites out of Egypt and Moses and his people were at the red sea..What did God ask Moses? What is in your hands...You have a job even though it is small...But be cheerful and grateful for what you have...I understand that you have dreams to achieve; but create SMART goals at least the ones you can achieve now...
ReplyDeleteProfessional courses there are thousands that offer for free like Alison and Udemy..Do those free one first, acquire more skills, apply for remote jobs to add to your current job and make more money...You are tech savvvy then search for remote job on linked-in...Stop wallowing in pity party...
Draw up a realistic budget based on your salary and set aside money for your basic upkeep...Whoever you are swatting with, ask that they give you some time to find your feet, Contribute no matter how little for housekeeping....When you start complaining, you won't see your little winnings and blessings...
Continue applying for jobs one day God will do it...Nigeria is a tough place and it is no easy for anyone so don't link it with anything spiritual...Be close to God, pray and Believe in him while you push for a better job...You will get a job even you never expected and you remember today and laugh at yourself...Cheer up girl..Network with people, luck will smile on you soon...All the best..
Hmmmmmm...poster be thankful for what you have and pray that God favours you when the time is right.
ReplyDeleteI am 30+, single and my salary of 7 years has been 80k. You are even lucky you are younger. Keep complaining inugo
ReplyDeleteI don't know whoever taught you that one only fasts or study the Scriptures or prays when one needs a well paying job? Whoever it was lied to you.
ReplyDeleteDo you only relate with your earthly father when you are in need?
These things you listed are the
things that constitute the life of a follower of Christ.
Seek first the Kingdom of God (the salvation of your soul) and the rest
will be added to you.
Please do not be ungrateful to God. Someone needs a job of 50k at the moment now but could not even see any. Please be grateful to God that you have sometime doing. It is one thing at a time. Do not kill yourself o. you are far better than some people.
ReplyDeleteBe greatful to God for life and always give thanks to him, it will push him to do more
ReplyDeleteHmmmm, my dear you need to be grateful to God ooo. I have a federal job in one of the courts in Naija, my basic salary is 44k, after all kinda deductions I'm left with 32k. If I have ur kind of job ehn, I'll keep thanking God.
ReplyDeleteDear poster please stay grateful and watch God multiply your wealth.
ReplyDeleteGreed
ReplyDeleteYou must be an ingrate, here I'm earning 46k with crazy accommodation fee. I wish I have the opportunity to squat with someone,most times I trek to work because of just 100 tfare, you can even save and you have the boldness to complain, I'm left with nothing at the end of the month. My dear appreciate God for where you are and with the hope of where you're going to.
ReplyDeleteI'm not being complacent, see beyond now and rise from that deadly thought.
Singing " NO GO DEY DO PASS YOURSELF!!!!...
ReplyDeletePlease poster, dont allow your situation to make you an ungrateful person. I know with personal commitments here and there, N80k might be small but I bet you there a lot of people out there that are praying to have that opportunity.
ReplyDeleteI will advise you to ask God for mercy for questioning His existence, appreciate Him for how far He has helped you and pray for more.
I wish you all the best.
Please take it easy on yourself..
ReplyDeleteI know a lot;not hearsay that earn between 15k to 25k;how everyone survives on it is just God and grace..
Happiness is a mindset and problems of the world cant finish;the target is just to strive and do better daily while counting on Gods grace..
Keep saving from the little you earn,Do the little you can for your family especially the building project,take it easy generally..
No one is saying you should be comfortable in poverty but the key is "Adding happiness" for yourself in all your daily endeavours..
You think you are going through worst? Trust me na enjoyment you dey ontop that 80k..
The problem is that many think real life is same as "Instagram Life" where everyone is balling hence you start comparing your progress to your peers and think in reality you are doing very bad..
Madam come Alaba Market and check the Salary of various sales rep/assistant here;fine and clean Ladies who are doing their Job then you would realise you are VERY RICH.
I'm talking of graduates earning below 50k here and still work mondays to Saturday believing tomorrow will be better for everyone..
Abeg ooo
@MARTINS
Do what you can and leave the rest, stop trying to please everyone cos if anything happens to you tomorrow, life will still go on. So biko jeje. Place priorities and achieve your goals one after the other. Most especially, thank God for life cos when there is life there is hope.
ReplyDeleteYour whole write-up reeks of selfishness, ingratitude, and lack of focus. More than half the entire world have nothing close to what you have but they are happy! How many girls below 30 are earning what you earn? Imagine contemplating suicide.
ReplyDeleteChange your attitude to that of gratitude and watch things change for you.
Maybe God will open your page when you start being grateful. Until then, keep whinning.
The problem with Nigerians is that they live above their means.sister start living below what you earn and you will find peace. You earn 80k but want to live like you earn 25ok that's the problems with most nigerians and you see everyone complaining!
ReplyDeleteHello poster, you need to be more thankful to God rather than complain, God is always faithful to His children, Thank Him for what He has given you, praise him even in the little things and He will do more for you.
ReplyDeleteYou are trying to do too nuch with your income. Break ut into small prohects. Completing your num's house is not a major priority except shw keaves there and the roof is leaking. Rent a olace and the two if you can leave together and build from there. Every business takes time to grow, give your business time. Atleast you are smart enough to have a side hustle. Remember, you can only do what you can. This life na jeje
ReplyDeleteYou are really ungrateful ooo. I am the first born child,and a lady of 27,i earn 37k as a teacher but i also have an handiwork and do private coaching too. Although i still stay wity parent and do the little I can. I can't even think of any professional certification but i am grateful for life. Although i feel down sometimes but in all i always give thanks to God and i also serve him like never before. Why not be grateful and look towards the positive side of life many people are even looking for that 80k job.
ReplyDeleteYou are earning 80k and still complaining. I don't have a job and I am squatting in a family house at 36 with a 3 months old daughter to feed. It has never crossed my mind to end it all. Please appreciate what you have. God will increase you in his time. Tough times don't last but tough people do
ReplyDeleteI honestly wish to be in your shoe right now.... I have been out of job since covid 19 that access bank reduce their man power. I have two little nephews of my late brother I'm taking care of and paying their school fees for three years now. School is resuming on monday yet I don't have cash, food is by God's grace. I have sold almost all my valuable but I'm not giving up on life cos God can still change things for me. So poster be grateful, you don't know what people are going through. Na roof they cover person.
ReplyDeleteI earned 10k as teacher with a child and I didn't die. I worked harder and got a better job and today, I am married with a good job. You earn 80k and have a dropshipping business, please don't be an ingrate. I know a married man with 3 children earning 65k and is living within his means. Be grateful for what you have
ReplyDeleteThat is the problem with lag people.i am living like a king withy 90k job in oshogbo.ungrateful being
ReplyDeleteLol...some of us are looking for a job of even 50k and its not forth coming. Be grateful for the one you have and trust God for upliftment.
ReplyDeleteYou even have a job that pays you 80k. Oh God please firgfor this poster cause she doesn't know what she's saying.
ReplyDeletePoster stop being hard on yourself,turn your prayers to Thanksgiving and see God come through for you.
I'm 35 and I earn 65k monthly, impossible to save anything. Life has not been fair, gratitude keeps me striving. Be hopeful🙂
ReplyDeleteEvery problem is valid, ur problem is valid. Your issue is valid.
ReplyDeleteNow use this emptiness you feel to cry unto God to hear ur prayers. Use this despair you feel to cry unto God to provide u with a better job.
You earn 80k and others earn less is not any reason for you to feel like ur problems are not valid. Pay them no heed. You know what u want. Keep praying for it.
Dust urself out of that mood and keep applying for jobs. Just continue applying, one day something will click and all of these will be history.
Stop building that ur mum's house now because u are unable to afford it. Do the things u can afford to do and leave the rest till u get a better job.
I was earning 20k as a teacher in Nigeria and other small small change from other side hustles. I know how much I earn now. Just keep the faith. Keep the hope and please remove the thoughts of killing urself.
Eka n pride,how much do you earn now?
DeleteGod have mercy!!!!
Anon, 100 million euros 😂😂
DeleteAnon 16:59 and 20:02, envy no go kill una for this Eka matter! Which one is pride again. Eka just wants her to know that things would change for good. This is called Hope. She's not the cause of your situation na. Jeez! I fear who no fear una. Online witchcraft at its best.
DeletePoster,please hang in there. As humans, there are times we question our existence but know that God still sits on the throne. What happens to your mom if you end your life? Have you thought about this?
Honestly You should pause the building project for now,it's not a priority, live according to your means. You can't continue it with the salary. Resume when things get better. I wish you well.
21:30, those ones are not worth responding. Probably upset that I didn't join in the usual bashing of someone who is clearly down already.
DeleteLeave them in their misery abeg.
21.30 actually, I came back to apologise. It honestly wasn't envy, I just found that anon's comment funny.
DeleteGood luck to the OP.
My dearest girl...... I'm a married woman I work in school n my salary is 15k, as in 15k intact when I don't break school rules like latecoming, not submitting lesson note on time etc, is not enough but I'm hopeful..... I applied for another school which can take my salary to 45k, I was rejected I still give God thanks .if doubt me come to east, salary structure for teachers is not worth it.... Remember I'm a graduate and also with professional course certificate. So be thankful if you have sound health, if you don't need help to move around, if you have two sight etc. Life is a passing phase.
ReplyDeleteLife's throws challenges at us. I'm on the brink too, my job is like enslavement with toxic environment. I hate everything and I'm leaving but not depressed a bit because the future is promising. Mind you, I'm homeless too. Pray for me y'all but for my mental wellbeing and family. I'll quit the job
ReplyDeleteIt is well with you anon16:37
Deletei am 45 years old. I am still unmarried, no kids, am a graduate but have never earned up to 50k in my life after more than 15 years of graduating most of them spent unemployed.
ReplyDeletei presently earn 30k and am grateful
poster make you no give up oh
May the Lord grant your hearts desires.
DeleteMay God come through for you. May He favour and bless every area of your life. May Jehovah bless you beyond what you deserve,may you laugh like Hannah laughed after she was blessed with Samuel. May you experience the 'my cup runneth over' kind of blessings in Jesus name,amen
DeleteAll I see is you carrying other people on your head. Leave others alone for now and face your self, its obvious the masters can't happen now try and achieve the professional exam first then eat sleep work and keep praying
ReplyDeleteUngrateful human being. Mtcheeeeew
ReplyDeleteThis poster is truly, sincerely ungrateful.i earn less than what you earn with my degree oo, still carry family expenses for head as first child and first daughter.
ReplyDeleteMy locker for work get space for my precious container of ijebu garri I have not died. I trek some distance home to cut expenses.
Learn to be grateful
Learn to prioritize
Lord I'm grateful. Thank God.
ReplyDeletePoster you should always give thanks to God and he will bless you more, I'm in my late 30s I don't have a job and I'm very much single,I will be very grateful if I had a job paying 80k.But in all I still give thanks to God because I know soon things will turn around for my good.Get on your knees and say Lord I thank you for what I have.
ReplyDeletedear poster, you should be grateful that you have a job that pays at least some of your expenses. should I tell you about myself? I was doing a 20k job and I was still owed for 6 months. yes,they only paid me January salary. you see why you should be grateful? your pay pay is consistent. you have a side hustle that will pay off sooner than you expect. I resigned from that miserable job on Monday and the owners were not happy. I don't even know how to get my money from them
ReplyDeleteMy husband is a computer graduate but no job...he's currently earning 30k for a family of four,how we survive,by God's grace,i ieityer beg not borrow but how God sustains us day to day is a mystery...u r earning 80k and u want to kill urself...how ungrateful can u be....
ReplyDeleteEasy babe, na small small. You cannot do everything at once abeg. One thing at a time please. If I see 80k work as I dey now enh, hmmmm... I go jump for joy o.
ReplyDeleteFirst: thank God for where you are and what you have achieved.
ReplyDeleteTwo: If you havent done so already, run away from every sin. That is any kind of sex: oral sex, sexual intercourse, anal sex, dry sex, dry humping, masturbation, petting. Basically dont do anything with a guy past kissing on the cheek or a short one second kiss on the lip of you can control yourself.
Any form of idolatry and native custom - dont do it
Any form of buying anointing oil, bracelet, soap, water - dont do it
Any person speaking in tongues over you with no interpretation - dont say amen dont do it
Any body laying hands on you- dont do it
Any sowing seed for breaktgrough- dont do it
Basically no habitual sin and no going to places that will transfer your virtues. Be quick to repent when you do sin.
3. Give money that you feel comfortable and joyful giving to the needy, a homeless person, an orphan, a widow
4. Google kevin ewing testimony on youtube, watch it an other videos
5 join words of wisdom by kevin la ewong om facebook
6 get remotivated to read chapters of your bible everyday- try to do 10
7 get remotivated to pray using the scriptures
8 speak God’s word over your life and not your problems, worss have power.
9. Run away from sin and trust God to compensate you 7 fold whatever you lost if you live righteously and to lead and direct your life. God bless you
Dear poster, please be positive and stay focused. Reduce the responsibilities you placed on yourself a bit. You can't do everything at once with the resources at your disposal. Continue applying for jobs, it will be well.
ReplyDeletePlease go to the emergency dept of the teaching hospital/ state specialist hospital closest to you and see the scale of humam suffering. Why are you saving 60% of 80,000 naira. How does this make sense to you. You imposed unnecessary suffering on yourself and you are questioning the existence of God. 10-20% is more than enough. At 60 percent per month you are saving about 48,000 naira every month. Invariably you are sending money to your mother, feeding yourself and paying transport to and from work, clothing yourself from the balance of 32.000. You are probably not helping to pay bills in the house you stay. Why will your head not be hot , why would frustration not set in. Your mates and those younger are using free courses to enhance their careers
ReplyDeleteSince you are tech savvy, start a YouTube channel. It's not a get rich quick scheme but if you work at it,it will pay off eventually. I earn the same as you and I am married. Thank God for my husband but I have so much I want to do for myself. I started a channel last month and I am amazed how well it's doing. Good luck to you.
ReplyDeleteLet me go anon on this....
ReplyDeleteAt almost 30, you've a job and a certificate to your name
At almost 30, you've a tech savvy off which if you revisit your drawing book and put things straight, you won't be asking if God exist.
At almost 30, every month you're sure of your salary etc.
While at almost 30....
Some of us became homeless even before we graduated from school the first time.
Some of us are still battling with our undergraduate studies as a result of extra year or semester.
Some of us it's through the help of a good Samaritan that our extra year school fees were paid, because new academic session resumes the following week while students were cooling off their brains after rush-rush exams the week before.
Some of us are homeless, squatting from one family members or friend to another.
Some of us are skill-less not because we don't want to acquire one but because the finances are not there yet and due to the kind of family we came from, there is no one to support one's dream.
Some of us have given up hope on Living but just surviving etc.
So poster, it's not a new job you need, rather you need a new mindset towards life.
Be grateful for what you have currently while praying and working towards a new and better one.
Don't loose a bird at hand while chasing invisible thousands in the bush!
R_Q
Wow. Please, do not ever give up hope. I strongly believe all you are experiencing is for a future God is preparing you for. Please do NOT give up!
DeleteDear poster i understand how you feel. sometimes we feel overwhelmed with responsibilities. You are not ungrateful, you are just overwhelmed at the moment. Please darling learn to thank God every moment especially when you feel this way. Your response to what you are feeling is natural but let thanksgiving become your unnatural response. Let thanksgiving become your attitude. We have a living God who hears and answers prayers. He will surely come through for us all when the time is right because our God is too faithful to fail. This too shall pass. Love and e-hug.
ReplyDeletePoster be greatful with the little one you have cos alot are looking for 80k jobs without having one. We all are just managing life, hoping for a better tomorrow
ReplyDeleteTake life one at a time, be hopeful and trust God.
Reading the experienced of others, I'm so ashamed of not thanking God enough for the good he has done in my life. I don't have it all, also unmarried without kids, but I THANK GOD.
ReplyDeletePoster, make it a habit to thank God of one blessing each day and you'll feel better. The fact that you're alive is one over good reason to be thankful. Na only person wey dey alive fit complain about small salary.
Also, live within your means. E.g. why are you building your mom a home? STOP IT, PLEASE. You can't afford it right now. Besides, if anything happens to your mum who would inherit the house? Is it you alone? I sincerely doubt it.
Start now to plan to move out of where you are squatting. I'm sure there are places you can find rent you can afford. Or you find a lady like you and pay rent together (I don't like this option though).
One step at a time. It is well
poster I understand that feeling of inadequacy trust me I do, I am 28 years old no boyfriend talk of husband no Bsc just started an apprenticeship program but I am grateful, if not for anything for life and for Gods love cos my life is a testimony. I was an alcoholic for more than 7 years didn't have my life together until now, did I plan to be an alcoholic?? hell no did I plan to be a drop out? no but as long as I have breath I will keep trying and as someone who survived something as terrible as an addiction I am grateful for everyday, so cheer up it gets better.
ReplyDeletePoster pls in all things give thanks. I know it's not easy for you but don't stop praying, praising God, fasting and meditating on the word of God.
ReplyDeleteSometimes when your breakthrough is near things start getting harder. The devil starts bringing evil thoughts to make you feel like God has abandoned. The sweet truth is God is with you and he is ever faithful.
I don't have a job at 28 even though I passed with a very good grade. The govt job I have been pursuing since 2019 never still show. When I look around me I give thanks to God cos I have alot to be grateful for.
You still earn 80k abi some people earn 30k and some less. Some never even see job of 10k sef and if some see 80k them go dey happy.
Pls God is too faithful to fail o keep on trusting him and lay your worries at his feet I assure you he will never let you down. Meditate on Jeremiah 29 vs 11
You so so ungrateful my gosh,you have a job. Do you know how many ppl will kill to get your job. Nawah o. See me here no work no money. My account is empty as in no kobo. It has been my husband, even to buy pad sef na my husband. Just ask God for forgiveness
ReplyDeletesinging: it 's never late never late , he is not a late God x3 he never fail any one I know, he's always on time, he never fail no no he's not a late God.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about not getting the job. Sometimes, you pray/fast/sow seed of faith and things work out so fast. Other times, you carry out same act of faith and God doesn't approve, for reasons beyond our comprehension. We still trust God and move on because HIS plans and purpose exceeds ours. It shall end in PRAISE Sis. Hold on.
ReplyDeleteGirl,you are ungrateful ooo. At 30 I had no job,infact I had bank account that was just dormant,shishi no dey inside. I was a graduate of 10 good years without a job. You even have Job that pays N80k. I had no job at 30. I thank God for the experience right now. It all helped make me a better person.Wake up girl and snap out of this ingratitude,infact take a stroll to the nearest teaching hospital/FMC for an automatic brain reset. Lots of people are earning below 50k and are surviving hoping for better days.It will only get better. You are gaining work experience,a better opening will come and you will get it. Stay strong ��
ReplyDeleteHello poster, you have every reason to thank God, so don't dare sound ungrateful and subtly foolish. People are in various ICUs paying for the oxygen you and I are breathing free of charge. May God in His infinite mercies excuse your ignorance of His benevolences in your life. You can do better by lying down wherever you are now and appreciating God for His love upon your life. Good luck
ReplyDeleteDear poster, I am a testimony that God truly exist, please believe in him..
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel, I have been there, still there but gradually coming out of that shell.. Please don't let the current challenges you face overwhelm you, lest you get depressed and start thinking the unimaginable..
I lost all that had value to me a while back, I sent Stella a mail (if she can recall about tracking a laptop).. I came home from work and my room was burgled,all that had value wD taken.. My room was a shadow of itself, I wasn't earning much too, you can imagine saving for a long time to get certain things and you didn't use it... I was devasted, I could barely help my siblings with money for food, I avoided going to see my parents because I can't go empty handed.. I had to forfeit my professional exams because I couldn't pay the exam fee.. My world came crashing down..
Overtime I knew I couldn't lament anymore , I got tired of crying, I got exhausted from questioning God..
I decided to embrace my reality and see reasons to be happy no matter how little.. I worshipped God in all honesty, took solace in gospel music which elevates my spirit.. Saved a lil money and started a business, to assist with income.. Loved myself more and refused to see myself as a failure . My dear, just try these things u listed and you will be amazed at the peace of mind you will have..
Think of ways to get side income, do the little you can for your family invest more in your self, most importantly seek the face of God always and be grateful for the things you have.. It's well with you dear.

Poster, Be strong. Take courage. Do not depair and do not be dismayed. The Lord your God is with you. He will go before you and his light will show the way.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the the job that did not you come.
ReplyDeletePlease know you cannot do everything at the same time no matter how much you earn because the more you earn, the bigger the everything you want to do.
In order of priority, focus on (1) taking care of yourself, (2) your mum, (3) improving your earning capacity with free online courses as already advised and your earnings, (4) additional certification. Building a house for your mother should should not be be rushed project. Take that easy as funds are available.
Please know that some squatlord will be angry to hear what you posted here o. Unless they are very comfortable than you and or you contribute well to the living expenses of the home.
With what you wrote here, I regret my wasted salaries.
Thanks for your wake up post. I will be better going forward. I look forward to seeing a joyful update from you soonest.
Don't give up! You have greatness in you. You will look back at today and laugh and give "testimotivational" messages to people.
Please do not be ungrateful eateful.. You earn N80k as a single lady.. I am over 40years with a child and i just manage a small business that can't even cover my personal needs for 2weeks and with a husband that earns N38k monthly, yet we are grateful for life and still hope for the best.. Gratitude is key, it paves way for more. I am trusting God to uplift my business and provide hubby with a better job and i know he his a faithful father and will not disappoint us.. Be grateful sis.
