December 2011, the decision was made official to let go of a long time everyday way of life. I quit my day job...not so easy to do but the deed is done and many can't still believe it.
Its been a great 6 fruitful years of doing something loved, meeting new people and fostering relationships. It's been 6 fruitful years of waking up early and facing the popular Lagos 3rd mainland bridge. 6 years of unpredictable traffic...6 years of living with the excitement of solving problems(not like I've stopped solving though)... I was nick named "the problem solver" funny indeed because I never saw myself as one. I was only interested in doing what I enjoyed and also helping people... problems solved on a daily basis ranged from technical to official to personal issues...
The bottom-line was just affecting lives, meeting needs and it was a real pleasure... Looking back I realize that it is really cheap to help people, it's usually the willingness to even try that is lacking... I rarely spent money but usually my brain, my listening hear, ability to just gist about the situation till both parties get enlightened.
I was flabawhelmed by the open show of love by my colleagues after the announcement was made... surprise party and gifts followed despite the protests...but they were all glad I was leaving too... they believed like I did that I was created for greatness and that most likely wouldn't happen if they kept me from leaving...
Looking back now 1 year and 3months... I still have my peace and more peace, no regrets, still hopeful and serious about this incubation stage am in... when I hatch definitely prophecy must have been fulfilled...
6 fruitful years of impact...but knowing when to move on is one really difficult task which is a totally new topic for another day...Till I hatch...I remain.

True! Yet to fully hatch. In time the story will be bigger than a New York Best Seller.
