Chorus: toriiiiiii
PGM: once upon a time
Chorus: time, time
‘Guys this one na free advert’, just in case you know someone, that knows someone that knows someone that can hook a brother up with some T.V production: your guy needs the bar…lol. Okay, so back to my ‘yans’ you know how we do it now… (Grinning mischievously). I’ve got gist for you guys, the ‘tori’ spurred out of something complicated but I’ll try to keep it simple.
Well, recently I have been making some decisions: finishing my assignments and projects and also entering into a new business venture without a single dime but I guess the passion will do for now. So in the midst of all of this I have been making a lot of key decisions, decisions that will determine how my life will go in the next few years. Now that is a lot of pressure but ‘God dey’!!! But my people there is more; you see there was one somebody who together we started out as friends but soon your guy started to love up .The ‘wahala’ was that too many things were making me so unsure about the matter that I just was completely going crazy. All my pep talks to keep it cool and act like the Perfect Gentle Man that I am was futile (yeah that’s what PGM means in my little script above…its not easy to be the PGM of the Federal Republic of Nigeria…lol). Thinking about this entrapment now is like ice water under my skin and I can’t seem to shake off the chill that I feel.
Well the friendship thing between her and I was still fresh and I didn't want to mess things up especially after some experiences that I had seen before in the lives of others; I did not to want to jump into a relationship just yet but as you know whilst I was busy contemplating and weighing my decisions another desperado was moving fast. Yet despite the apparent threat (I ain’t hating I am just very grouchy right now) I had my reasons for still staying as friends even though my emotions were and is still screaming like crazy.
Yesterday, this interesting Chinese movie made me to sleep at 2:30am in the morning. The Sword with no Name which is the title of this movie (as in I really don’t know who titles Chinese movies…) was a love tale of two worlds that traditions, war and pain tried to keep apart but in the end love conquered. This is a tale of a warrior (Moo-myoung) that fell in the love with the chosen woman to the throne as Queen of Korea (Ja-young), and he swore to defend her following her from her tiny village, to the palace, and eventually to the grave…yeah, the ‘tori’ had all the heightened emotions and exaggerated passionate display of determination but the part of the story that caught my attention was in the end where in defense of his Queen and true love the warrior cut the nerves in his right leg and thereafter pegged his feet to the floor with his sword; a feat that prevented him from falling to the ground even when he was shot several times.
The resilience of that warrior to stand for what he believed in, even in death was at first crazy to me, I just couldn’t comprehend it but then I thought to my self; to him dying for the one he loved was all to him and he was true to who he was.
Now about my own love that I never loved…I didn’t want to make a promise to her that I wasn't determined to at least try to see to the end and that may have cost me a chance with her but it has earned me extra pounds for the next challenge…now this is not just about my love, its about every thing we stand for and hold dear to our hearts, its about our battles for our Queens, our faith, our family, our dreams because we are warriors. We should be true to ourselves because it’s only then that you truly live.
