*** From Grass To Grace *** by donogaga(m): 7:17am On Sep 10, 2014
Got this from a friend and I was touched... Hence, I just thought it wise to share it down here....


What am about to write down is my story ( My True Life Story ) please treat it with Respect, For am writing out to the world because something in me wants me to do so on my platform, Am somehow the hidden type, the private personnal kinda person but tonight, my whole being wants me put it all in writing. So, please READ & EMULATE ..

I thank God for my life, for my family and where we are today, the late *********'s Family.. When dad died, i had no clue what life was talking about until 2years after his death, though i have always being the kid who doesn't complain about any situation but always take every hard time as a stepping stone.

Mummy has being keeping the family together and making sure that her 4 kids are living well, working round the clock to pay the bills and keep us all under one roof, but it's not something she can do alone, i joined her fulltime in her restaurant business, keeping her away from employing a worker who will help out with the dishes and serving of the customers, for i know the extra money and extre help from me, will go a long way.. Mummy trained me up in all ways a mother can, she being the dad and mom at the sametime was stressful, i had to bring my siblings together one night and let them all know that this is not a time or moment for anyone to be stubborn or wayward towards mummy and also this is a time for everyone to grow up , though it took a longer time as usual before everyone could see what i was talking about.. Growing up without anyone to show you your left or right in life at a tender age, was a problem, but mummy did all she could, she did her possible best and made sure i stay disciplined always..

There was a particular time, while i was growing up into a man (2006), at that time i am always the one to wake up so early in the morning at about 2am, to wake her up, reminding her that it is time to start preparing her dishes.. I did that for years, even after gaining my own apartment, i still find it hard to sleep past 2am, i still wake up at that time even when i know am not in the same house with her.

At that time, i always push her products ina wheel barrow to the bus stop everyday till date, it got to a time when people starts telling me that am too grown to be pushing the wheel barrow for my mum, that my younger ones should do that, but i kept telling them that " i will never grown old of doing that for my mom, for that was what kept us alive and that was the discipline i got and lots more " Nobody seems to know why i will leave my house every morning and head straight to mom's house to push the wheel barrow for her, but i always know within me that " i can never forget where it all started from and where it got me "..

On several occasions, i do get to see MOST of my facebook friends on this very platform on the highway, going to work via the same bus'stop and they seem surprised on how C******* could throw away all his grown'ness and keep doing that which alot of my fellow men could not do, at a particular time, i met a facebook female friend on that same bus'stop and she came closer to me, greeted my mom and whispered to my ears " Now i know why you fight for women always " and i laughed..

TODAY.. GOD has lfited us up to greatness, he keeps providing for us alll and taking us up higher than where we were years back.. Almighty JEHOVAH !! I can't thank you enough, i say may all glory, honour and adoration be unto your name in Yashua's name, Amen..

No matter what you beçome today in life, never you forget that you started somewhere, never you forget that BIGGER GOD in heaven and your family and friends who choose to stick by you when no one else did.. It pays alot when you humble yourself and struggle real hard to make it big in life, sorrows never last long.. JOY always cometh in the morning..
