When it comes to love, especially for a person seeking love, all I think of is persistence and self-upgrade.
Anything can work if you push hard and are willing to put in the efforts required. But you certainly don’t want to pump your sweat and precious time into something that makes you constantly look back and wonder if it was worth the work.
That is why it pays to choose carefully and wisely the things we invest in. Or should I say, the people we invest in.
A life partner represents you in many ways you may not realize. Your choices say a lot about you.
You won’t always be there to give excuses for many behaviors exhibited by your partner.
I mentioned self-upgrade because when you grow up, many things naturally fall off.
There is a lot we entertain and tolerate and harbour because we refuse to grow in certain areas of our lives. But once you develop the discipline to shun certain companies and invest in becoming a better person everyday, focusing on your goals and aspirations and potential, you naturally can tell associations whose meetings you must no longer attend, talks you should no longer participate in and people who should be plucked from your inner circle.
But this growth period of focusing on yourself is a lonely journey. It takes a lot of discipline to go off the radar, to disappear in order to work on your many broken walls that have allowed in lunatics biting and tearing down your sense of respect and hard-earned reputation.
In the African society, an important personality such as a king, is usually hidden from the people just before their coronation. It is a period of training, learning, preparation, a phase essential to the smooth take over of power.
Periods of isolation are not punishments from above. They are seasons of preparation for higher heights.
Love is beautiful. Love is sweet.
But for a good thing to last and outlive everything bent on killing it, a lot of work needs to be done, a lot of investments of prayer and humility need to be made, a lot of learning, unlearning and relearning need to take place.
The things that richly reward in life and have the potential to make profound impact on our lives, they are like rare minerals that require a lot of digging, searching and work to process them into treasure.
But when the work is done, one can always look back with no regrets, smiling at a work well done.
