TOLU'S DIARY

TUESDAYS 10AM

Hi diary,

I’m here to serve you with juice with too much sauce. I went on a walk with one of my friends during the week. ‘’you have to let this dog stroll in the street, that’s another training’’ Segun said. ‘Major’ was out there in the street mapping out a new terrain. Segun performed many stunt with the German shepherd breed making him unable to leave my friend. ‘’Hey! Major, let’s go home’’ I said but the dog turned deaf ears. ‘’He wants attention, they love those who play with them’’ Segun said. ‘’Huh! No more food for you in the next three days’’ I said jokingly with an element of jealousy.

Truthfully, I have seen relationships where all what the man does is to provide for the family and nothing else. Many homes are shaking as a result of this. No time for the family (wife and kids) especially as a result of work or other things. Someone close to me once said this about her husband ‘’is it all about the money alone?’’ I sighed. This man has been doing very well at work and has been paying bills till bills were scared of him. But here is the wife crying for attention like my dog. I’ve learnt a lesson from the issue raised above. BALANCE THE EQUATION in your relationship. Well, a learner has learnt, therefore diary inform others about this cogent topic. 

See you again guys, love you wholeheartedly.
