If only I knew as a Nigerian child 

While growing up in secondary school I thought if I was intelligent I would be successful 
I thought passing academic exams make me pass through all the huddles of life .

I thought my life would always be thesame , that I will never change 

I thought I would keep thesame friends forever and , 

I thought my enemies are not meant to grow in life

I thought a lot to disappoint 

Now am disappointed  , life thought me different , 

The only thing that remained thesame is I thought I would be a successful person with a successful personality and the by 

 glory of the almighty I am succeeding and I will continue to succeed until their is no mor to conquer.

I grew up and my thoughts changed and they keep changing untill I cease to exist.
