Maychang: Exactly what is happening to me presently... but right now, I am more determined to get to the root of it because I am perplexed and angry. But as the Lord lives and His Spirit lives, there will be breakthrough for me even without tarrying. Na this thing dey make me understand Ecclesiastes wey say the race is not to the swiftest nor the battle to the strong... I see people flourishing with less effort and it seems my own effort is being washed down the drain, but I am resilient and I want you to be so too...God must to reckon with us by fire by force. We are not the worst sinners. Every crooked paths shall be straightened, every valley shall be leveled and every mountain shall be made plain in our live in Jesus name. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

It's just like something spiritual is attached to the issue of first born... Things will be somehow difficult and uneasy to come by. What about the popular statement of "first born are not wise, they are too dull".. may God help us all and deliver us all from pressure 9 Likes |

Seriously it's not easy. You have to put some of your life's plans on hold. I for instance would have loved to get married now but I need to train my siblings out of university before settling down. It's not easy as I have met a lot of ladies who were ready to settle down with me. My family sacrificed a lot to make me who I am today. All my younger once didn't buy jamb form all through when I was in d university. All resources were channeled to my education. Thank God I never disappointed them and their prayers have been really working for me. Oboy to b first born no easy wahlahi. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

I think we don't have to generalize, every person has their own challenges whether a first child or the last, scaling through those challenges is what makes us successful. As a first born, things went relatively easy for me because I sat tight right from a teenager, I understand early what it means to be a leader and most times I am very independent. Being independent doesn't come easy, you have to make some sacrifices and lose so many things, but once you have the end in mind, you'll be progressing in your goals. School was stress free Life after school isn't bad either as I got a job 6 months after NYSC, its not paying millions but at least I can pay my bills and drop some things for the younger ones. Being a firstborn is cool as we are most times very intelligent. #PROUD FIRSTBORN. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Maychang:This has been my thought in recent days. I think were the problem starts is that many parents have less experience by the time they have their first child..So they abuse them; that where most depression starts from. They(parents) decide for them or want to..The child get confused. Now, these things might not show until he is a grown man... A lot to explain.. But talking about prayers.. I believe it's one thing to pray, it's another thing to pray rightly. Another thing is that firstborns should not to add to their already damaged roots which only God can sort, by getting involved in immoralities. Lastly, is that you've got to fight!Fight! Fight! 4 Likes |

Dad hated my idea of becoming a film composer/Music Producer. Well, being closer to mum, she supported me but had her doubts. Infact, she got me my first Keyboard. I had misunderstanding with dad like all the time. he'll threaten to destroy my equipment. He wanted me to start a career in my field of study Which I couldn't. I always loved music and want to make it. I don't want to follow my Dad's words and live the rest of my life with "If I had known" I was broke for two good years. Had nothing, just me and my studio. I received insults from them all the time. They'll always be like, "you want your siblings to follow your footsteps" and all that shii. Never gave up. Then February 2016, I got my first placement, and second and third. Things started getting better. it's a totally different story now. Dad is happy, mum too. it taught me that, "nobody gives a shii bout you till they see the bread coming" Once you're not making moves, nobody cares. if you're lucky, maybe one or two. Well, that's it. Back to my music. I want to be the next Hans Zimmer ![]() 6 Likes 1 Share |
