The Mistake I Couldn't Correct.

Hunger and being tasty for something especially when food is concerned required patient and maturity, a lesson I learnt when I was very hungry to eat but specifically I wanted a cooked corn 🌽 and native pear to quench the hunger.

It happened that I was coming back from work on the 16th day of June 2024, I was very hungry before leaving the office but then I don't want to eat something heavy for example garri or fufu with any of my favorite soups like vegetable and fish, it wasn't my taste as at that time simply because I know that the money with me will not be able to buy it, I optioned to go for something else.

I got to Oshodi at BRT terminal 3, I saw cooked corn 🌽 but I don't like the roasted native pears the seller is selling together with the corn, although is not a must to buy it together, is by choice, and it's sweeter when eaten with native pears or coconut, but I didn't buy either of them because of their size, I then decided to move further to charity bus stop Oshodi believing that I will be glad to see a good cooked corn 🌽 and boiled native pears.

Because that's a normal market day in Oshodi not like on Sunday that the market don't use to be busy, many people don't open their shops on Sunday, likewise those selling on the roadside, so because of this, there are many people selling cooked corn 🌽 and it's very fresh and hot.

While carefully searching for a good one to buy along the road, eventually I settled for one, but before then I have bought 500 Naira cooked  native pears. 
So I bought the cooled corn 🌽, and start heading home immediately.



I have worked 20 steps away when I saw the type of cooked corn 🌽 I want, I mean it has enough food on it, very fresh and hot, very attractive, it really got my attention but by then I have used my money, the only money with me to buy the same cooked corn 🌽 in another place,  I feel very sad, because I impatiently bought the corn 🌽 when my mind was telling me to still go forward that I might see a better one to buy but unfortunately I didn't listen.

I realized I impatiently bought corns that's not good enough for me after I saw the good ones but there's no money with me again, and if I return that one that I already bought, it will not be accepted, is not that I have done anything bad to it but because it has taken some minutes close to an hour, If I am the seller I will not collect it too but if it's not something eatable it will easily be accepted back by the seller going with the fact that I haven't make use of it.

Immediately I put a phone call to my wife, telling her what's on onboard, she encouraged me to come back home with the one I already bought that she would buy another one the following day. While she was still speaking, my 4 years son at the background, very intelligent boy said that he will manage it that way after all I have fulfilled my promise of buying him corn 🌽 when coming back from work. This sink down my heart that he appreciated my efforts to make him happy. I promised him that I will buy him corn 🌽 and native pears when returning from work that very day, and he was happy that i kept my words.

This is something I can't forget about being patient especially when it comes to food so that when you eat, you will be satisfied and happy, at the same time fulfilled that I have ate what I want to eat at the time I needed it.

So my personal advise to anyone reading this is to always be patient in life, in your marriage, be patient, in your relationship, be patient, don't take a decision that you will not like the outcome and you can't be able to correct just like what happened to me.
