Turn Back? by igbinigiejeff(m): 1:43pm On Aug 06, 2015
(Continued 180 Days to Spain)

This could have been a wise decision-but it was farthest from our mind ;My ambition,My pride,My destiny and above all, the fact that others had completed this task successfully spurred me on. I decided to be a survivor. In fact,three D's became my guiding theme.......Desire,Dedication and Determination.
I know i needed to generate and sustain the desire to live and to recognise my true potential. Then i had to dedicate myself to that concept. Determination alone would give me the victory. I resolve never to surrender!
A journey expected to last seven days,took us fifteen days.

Libya Here We Come!

The Socialist people's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya is a conuntry in Northern Africa.it was an Italian colony from 1911 until the second world war and became independent in 1951.In 1960 colonel Muammar al-Qaddafi became the leader of Libya.He established the Arab Socialist Union (ASU)as the only party.The governments of United States and Europe have criticised Qaddafi for supporting terrorism world wide. In 1996 the United State bombed Tripoli which is the capital and city of Benghazi in retaliation for terrorist attacks.
Libya exports oil. it's a member of OPEC,The Arab League. Muammar Qaddafi was one time Chairman Organisation of African Unity(OAU)which Libya was a member. Currently Muammar Qaddafi is a dead.
Libyan's are very accommodating to foreign visitors provided you don't go against their Islamic Religion;They speak Arabic as language with a population of four million people.
On arrival in Libya,we had no money;We had to stop here as we could not move further that moment. We had to look for something to do for money.We worked"As shoe cobblers;Barbers, Hawkers and even Prostitution for the girls.Our stay in Libya lasted for one month,so as to put ourselves together for the journey ahead to Algeria.

EDO's

Very few relationships in life are permanent. Many are functional,formed to achieve a certain purpose by combining certain strength until goal is attained and then no longer serve the best interest of either party.
When goals or circumstances change,the players often change as well. New players come on the stage with new roles and other players leave the stage to be seen no more.
How many relationships in your life have reached the point where it is time for you and the other person to move on?
People are who they are. They are going to do what they are going to do. Each person has his or her own plan,and you can't change it. Let them go.
Edos was a Southern Nigerian boy who over came ambition and pride. He realised he could fulfil his destiny in Nigeria. So he left to make this same journey in a legal way.
He shed tears like a baby and called his parents out of desperation to Send him money to return to Nigeria and they did. The day he left,we had mixed feelings,some were laughing others were quite but he went back to Nigeria where he knew he would be safe.
