WHAT’S YOUR MOMENT OF STARTLING REALITY?

What’s your moment of Startling  Reality
There I are times in our lives that we get so shocked about  realities of life that gets you shaken to the bone. Some of them can even make you hate a place ,a thing, symbol or thoughts associated  with it.
Some people fall sick when they experience  extreme shock which makes them breakdown. It make take years to heal or they may stay sick till they die. Others also die at that very moment of startling  reality.
My teacher in primary told us a story about her sick mum who is still sick till thus day because  of shock. She reported that her mum came to visit her in the hospital  the morning  she gave birth  to her first child. They were a happy and her mum; a trader said she was going to the market to make some sakes for the day. She promised to come back with some food and items for her and the baby. According  to my teacher she only got out of admission  from the hospital  to meet her mother half paralysed. Her mother  went to the ,are only to meet her shop burnt to ashes by the revolutionary  government. On sight of this she went in to shock an collapsed. Until now she wasn’t  able to go feed her daughter  and grand daughter.
We must be open to all kinds of things  in life and should be strong  to face them because  at every point in time of our lives we are meant to face them. Be strong and cheerful even when you face a startling reality because it doesn’t  end there but helps make you a stronger person.
I would like you to share with us some stories which made you see things  differently, we will be glad to share. This my  email; otumfuormonica@gmail.com  will be expecting  them as we share to make ourselves  strong
