HAPPY EVER AFTER...AFTER ALL

Once upon a time, I lost touch with myself, self confidence was a problem as well. I was all alone, felt like it was just me in the whole world, I had no idea where to go or turn to. Many nights I would break down and cry so much that tears will refuse me.

I wasn't so good at praying then, but in my own little way I'd tell GOD to prepare a reason for me to smile for the rest of my life by blessing me with a GOD fearing(a man that truly fears and put GOD first will find it hard to hurt someone else), caring and loveable future partner, I will never forget many times at night I would kneel to my creator and just pray continually.

Fast forward few years later was when I realised most times, even in bad situations, GOD is smiling and preparing us for the best experience of our lives. That fateful night, I was running so fast in search of any means of transportation...running away from something and someone, I boarded an okada, told the driver to go towards express without an idea of where I was going or going to do, then I passed an area where I was sure my co-worker lived, I alighted there, paid the bike rider and as I was about to go into the compound to inquire about his flat, he was walking out and we bumped into each other at the gate(I later found out he was trying to get network on his phone...GOD at work), I explained things to him and he said i could sleep over, without even pleading with him at all(and he lived with his brother).

Few weeks later...I was sitting outside in the night, thoughts all over my head, he came to sit and talk with me and surprisingly started pouring his heart out(I later found out he was already attracted to me at work...GOD at work again 😉) while mosquitoes dealt with his legs because he was on shorts(that night was so funny and will forever be in my memory 😂). I wasn't sure what or how to respond because all I needed was his help, and time, to get back on my feet and to crown it all, I was just out of a horrid relationship, I looked at him confused and muttered "I'll think about it" I didn't  plan to think about it at all but today I'm glad I did, because really I think the best kind of relationships begin unexpectedly, that's why you don't look for love, it comes to you just at the right time and in GOD's time.

The day I accepted his proposal, he jumped so high in excitement(I later found out I was his first real relationship 😁). Since then, I knew there was hope after all, I found the light to light my way out of the dark, he taught me how to pray and be better at prayer.
I found a friend, a best friend, someone unlike any other. I found someone I could talk to for hours and never get bored, I found someone I could tell things and will not judge me but rather, correct me.
I found happiness, and this happiness came with a name... Adeyemo Oluwaseun Stephen, I don't know men like him still exists, an honourable man, an excellent example of who a man should be. He is my soulmate, my daddy, my everything(he became my daddy the moment I was handed over to him at our wedding exactly a month and 1day ago). He is a man of prayer and deep faith, he is an example of a saying that "when man takes away his carpet, GOD places his rug" he is definitely GOD's rug for me, my compensation in all ramifications.

I love my husband, I really do, I absolutely adore him. People expect me to have a bad description of him when I talk about him to them because they believe all men are the same, but I always say mine is different, mine is GOD sent, he is so good to me, he is my joy bringer, he is my heaven on earth, he is my last and my first, he is my before anyone else, he is my boo, he is my lover, he is my baby, he is my ride or die, he is my angel, he is my endless love, he is definitely an upgrade to all the man made carpets hovering around me in the past, and above all, he is #myKing. He makes marriage so joyful easy and beautiful, i could go on and on about him, but I'll stop here today.

My ever after only proves one thing is for sure,
We serve a living GOD.
We serve a GOD that listens and answers.
We serve a GOD that can break a palm kernel with an egg just to disgrace the stone.
