2 Sons

The Lord is good. I am blessed with 2 sons and a daughter. This is my reflections on my sons as they will soon be leaving home for further studies. My daughter has a few years left with us still.

Number 1 is naturally smart. Street smart, socially smart and athletically smart. Good looking, he has it easy as most things comes to him naturally without much effort. His academic results show 3 Bs and I think he could easily have gotten at least one A if not more out of those Bs, with a little more effort. He will go far in life. If he will be more disciplined, he will go even further. Number 1 is more into health. His course in either physiotherapy or dentistry will help people to remain and maintain health. He has chosen well. Financially whatever course he takes will be provided for, thankfully.

Number 2 is determined. He needs to work hard. Disciplined and quiet, he achieves what he desires. His efforts are showing the great results academically, socially, musically and in sports. He will do well in life with a good character. Not a natural leader but he will lead and will achieve great things. He will attempt feats and will overcome obstacles. He is more technical. His chosen course in engineering suits him well. Financially number 2 will be well provided for because of the conditional scholarship offered. Praying that his actual results will qualify for it. He is quietly confident about that.

As their father I am very pleased with them, what little input I have in their lives, they have both grown up well. More so because they both have their own spiritual understanding of the world and a very personal faith in Jesus. Both are now on the verge of leaving for further studies. I bless them and pray for them to continue on the journey they have chosen. I will continue to support in whatever ways I can.

Both have made good choices that suits their characters, rather than be persuaded to choose career that will earn the most. Financial rewards and job security will come sooner or later for those who excel in any field they choose.
