Good day everyone, I guess this my first post here on Gems community. My name is Janet and I will like to be known as adeyemijan on hive.
- I want to share with you what I meant by different faces different food on their plates.
Here we are ..... Four good friends
We graduated from same polytechnic here in Nigeria. We do literally everything together. We always carry each other along in everything even in the educational aspect. We share each other's pains and happiness.
Now,One of us is called Debby. She is beautiful,smart and kindhearted. She is the kind of girl that will always help you even if that's her last amount and give you full support when needed. But the food on her plate is ..... Disappointment
Debby is a kind of lady that men should be queing for but the food on her plate keeps coming through. She always cry and cry and ask God questions but yet she is still hoping that some day she will wear that wedding dress 💃
Then we have Susan. The food on her plate is culture belief and abomination. Hmmmmm! Susan is a young lady which has aquirer so many things at her early 30's through the lucrative business she does and she is a saving type. Infact she thought me how to save more and spend less.
- Now,the food on her plate is that all the guys that has been coming for serious relationship that may lead to marriage they are not allowed to take the relationship further because in Susans tradition, they don't get married to anyone that came from the same local government as theirs but the guys outside her local government or state that she always give in her all in the relationship end up leaving her for someone else for no reason. I'm talking about Benue state here in Nigeria. Is not funny she always feel bad and cry alot about it. Because she also can't wait to wear the wedding gown
We have Funmi. The food on her plate is religion barrier. Funmi was in a relationship with a guy for over 10years without sex and everything was going on fine but the guy kept on pushing that he need to check what he will eventually pay for. He has proposed had she accepted. Not knowing that the guy did all that just to give her assurance that if she allows him,they will end up together. My friend decided to let him have his way like dis flowered her which afterwards the guys changed totally. Which lead to brake up.
Here is where the religious barrier on Funmi's plate came from. After the brake up she met a this guy that always give her peace of mind and do everything to make her happy. Inshort they act like twice they do everything together always together. But this guy is a Muslim and my friend is a Christian infact the only daughter of a Reverend 🤔🤔 not possible right? She is so confused and better once are not fourth coming.
Finally we have Janet. The food on her plate is fruit of the womb. She is married to a good and loving husband that even sent her to school after marriage to give her a better life. But the issue is,she is really going through alot in her marriage based on she need a child of her own. And that's give her and a marriage a difficult time.
Like what people say",this life no balance" some are praying for married while the one that is married is praying for the fruit of the womb😆😆....
- That's our story and that's why I tagged it different faces with different food in their plates. We all are going through alot in our different plates.
