Life Is A Mystery by nodullin(m): 11:22am On Feb 26, 2015
Life is a mystery!

How do you account for two people (twin) born into this world one light skinned and one dark skinned? ferterlized by same egg..they both grow up in same womb under the same environment , similar condition and suckled from the same placenta or so.

For ease of rememberance the dark one is called Kehinde and is such a charm to behold while the other “Taiwo” is not too handsome with a very huge scar on his left cheek given to him by only God knows. Although his mum tells him its Gods mark!! i don’t understand why God would give him a scar to dent his face?

Going forward… at school, Kehinde is upright and just too intelligent for his age, on several occassions his maths teacher will refuse allowing him answer questions in class just because she knows he’ll always get it right and this would ultimately deprive her of judging the understanding level of his colleagues. ‘Kehinde!! she’ll call out, “please allow me to leave you out this time, can someone else please attempt answering the question?”

This same boy is also good at games, winning most of the awards at the school’s inter-house sport competition. like say na only am get gift; swimming, 100m dash,long jump and others.

Taiwo , however would be seen as the dullard of the two, sleeps often during classes and during break he’s sighted with the back benchers playing games by the corridor.

Fast forward to now; Kehinde a 2nd Class Upper Graduate with a job paying him about N160,000/month lives in Festal town, although he used to have just one girl friend back then in university days is unfortunate to have gotten married to a “once upon a time hoe" and his life is presently being frustrated by her… no kids… gives him multiple pressure which has affected his performance at work and may even loose it as he is presently on probation. Does he deserves this nightmare? all his life he followed due processes and lived the “ideal” and modest life.

“Hey sweetie” Damola would call out her husband from the garage packed with an IX-35, Mercedes benz E350, Honda Evil spirit and a small Toyota Matrix. “i’m off to work, please be safe and LOVE YOU!!!” and who is her husband?? "Taiwo” the same Taiwo 0o0o0o!! now a manager at Nigerian Breweries, living comfortably and doing just well.

Such is the mystery of life!! Good people die… bad people live… someone is born in the U.S another in Okokomaiko… one into a rich family the other a son of an Agbero at Ajah. Hmmmm!! Did they choose their place of birth??certainly “NO” can they change their story?? Thats a topic for another day.

i’m not trying to sound judgemental but how can an ex Rtd General and Head of State, Buhari of 73 years old want to Re-rule Nigeria in 2015?? Is this not mystery enough

Lets Cut the Chase… Life is a Fxxking Mystery!!!
