The Chinese Bamboo Tree: A Lesson On Persistence!

The Chinese bamboo tree is a rare tree. It's not like every other, conventional tree. It's unique and belongs to a class of its own. What makes it unique?

You take a little seed, plant it, water it, and fertilise it for one whole year, and NOTHING happens.

The same process must be carried out for the second whole year. And still NOTHING happens.

The same process must be carried out the third year. Despite all the tender attention and care, NOTHING still happens. What a discouraging, almost futile, experience. The same thing must be done to this seed the FOURTH year, and NOTHING still happens.

And then at the FIFTH year, the miracle happens. The Chinese bamboo tree grows NINETY FEET in 6 weeks. That's the miracle. All the while the farmer was tending and caring and fertilising this seed, it was simply growing and sprawling wide and deep beneath the surface- all in preparation for the sudden growth the tree will experience in the 5th years. So is the case with most of life's endeavours.

Sometimes we become so discouraged after making repeated efforts at a project, relationship, business, career, etc, and we simply give up because there's almost nothing to show forth. In life, we can't go far without persistence and perseverance. We need to keep trying. Nothing can take the place of persistence. Prayer won't take it. Talent won't replace it. To succeed, we must be persistent in our pursuit of our carefully decided goals and target.

Even vision cannot take the place of perseverance. Despite all our lofty and noble goals and dreams, they simply remain dreams without perseverance.

So this morning, just continue doing that desired goal. Keep at it. The snail made it to Noah's ark because of perseverance. Don't be discouraged. That business might just be building latent strength. Don give up!

Good morning to all my lovely people in the house.

From Beamborla to Francizy; from MizMyColi to the Specialist900; from Alezy to all the noble folks here.

Have a lovely day. You're in charge of your destiny!

thank you for these words.


The lesson I learnt is to persevere in my pursuit of mizmycoli

Beamborla:
You will get it, dear.

I know you meant to write pap and cane to go with it.
Lucky you, I prepared pap and I have my cane handy

what a mind reader you are. I wanted to write pap and akara but such food make me feel old with failing teeth. Fortunately, I'm not

MizMyColi:
Beamborla Dear, Ekaro o. Lol. I will likely go Spiritual with you. Hehehehe.
Specialist900

Eh goodu morning to all my people.
Today is day 2 of serving my ban in politics I miss commenting there

happy ban serving.
I could comment there on your behalf
Good morning to you

francizy:
Hehehehehe, fayrouz is my alcohol.

then you'll choose the coke and malt. I won't even offer you peppersoup

Beamborla:
Everybody wake up...
Food is ready.


Good morning

good morning to you and all. what food is on the table?

I feel like eating rice, beans, plantain and chicken and I always get what I wish for

lyntiffany:
uhhhhm! sorry dear strictly for one

then we're not discussing no more. Afterall I don't like barns, i prefer silos

lyntiffany:
all that you mentioned is been taken care of but like the saying goes " all work and no play makes francizy a sorry ass" so it will be in our interest you steal him, you guys can do guys nights out over a bottle of Moet and chamdon imperial nectar rose, what do you think?

No. No deal. I'll only consider if we'll be talking over malt, fayrouz and coke

lyntiffany:
ahh! haba! specialist dear am not asking for much, am I? just steal him away for some hours....hmm ok some minutes hope that's not much of a time for you?

it is too much a time. I wouldn't even want him for 1 second.


Pls keep him. Pamper him and you won't have a cause to release him

lyntiffany:
of course yes! enough to last him centuries.

now I'm envious of him. Can the barn accommodate 1 more person

Beamborla:
E don do you... na
Stop exaggerating this shiit already, will you?

I'll stop it but not cause I'm exaggerating. I later came to understand why their performance was like that

lyntiffany:
Yea and I love bearing it alone unfortunately can't get tired of him just that I need you to steal him from me for some hours

you can't get tired of him and it won't be by me you'll get tired of him

lyntiffany:
Lol, his just a kid that knows his way to the barn

hope there is sufficient yam in the barn for him to eat

Beamborla:
Cute!

Now that DD has gotten her own, when is BB getting hers?

DD got hers in abuja, BB could also get hers in abuja


LordReed, see wetin you don cause o. See soup wey we cook for midnight you don come warm am for morning

lyntiffany:

lyntiffany:
since way you enter my bedroom you no gree me rest.......specialist come carry your friend

this cross is for you to bear. Chase him out when you're tired

Beamborla:
hehehehehe... no just use style cover am. I can't argue with you sha, it was you who experienced it. I just hope God will touch the minds of our leaders to do the needful.

it was bad o. Imagine you give exams to secondary school kids and after them writing you're looking for what to mark. Cos there is nothing to mark.

Very few good ones were still there sha. Very few 1/30

Beamborla:
Hian! Are you sure you didn't buy #10 biscuit and #50 ribbena

customised biscuits and ribena was what I bought. With other additives too

Alezy:
Lolz. ..well, ur right sha. there is always a tomorrow but not with fayose

you can't tell my brother. Fayose could lead well

Beamborla:
You sha don use style insult them say them dull. No wahala... kontinu

na only know wetin i see there those days o.

I no insult them sha, i dey tell you so una go act upon am.

Believe me when I say it was bad. I even began to doubt how they were called fountain of knowledge in the first place.

To make it light, the drop in education is a Nigerian problem not just ekiti

Beamborla:
You don't love the place anymore?

I don't know who sent him to change it from fountain of knowledge o. As for me, it's fountain of knowledge.

I'm not there anymore na


I prefer the land of honour cos the kids I taught no look like people of those days with knowledge

kaboninc:
That's what good friends do.

I say this kind thing na only end time e dey happen. .

I been fear at first

LordReed:
Family help me thank uncle Specialist900. He fulfilled his promise to get DD ribena and biscuits for school.

Uncle Specialist900 thank you so much for your visit, may God add to you with no sorrow, in Jesus name, Amen.

big uncle, na we we o. DD na for all of us. I love her energy need i say I don't need to carry weight for like 1 month again

kaboninc:
