In school, some of us have always admired and celebrated the academic successes of those kids who were marked by proper behaviour, and so much that they were always in their school uniforms, always seen discussing past exams papers, even when it was inter-house sporting day at the stadium.
However, just because someone else wasn't given to study like that, wasn't devoted to all the rules nor everything from books, never liked those morning assemblies, hated tucking in his uniform with trousers pulled to his navel like "Pa Secure and Pa Apesko," and just because the person spent more time on the basketball court and in the garden than in the classroom doesn’t guarantee his failure, nor were they that were inclined towards all these and that good-kid image guaranteed a certain success.
If you ask me, this doesn't make God unfair; God blesses differently. And unlike man, God gives second chances to whoever He wishes. Personally, I was afforded thirteen second chances and I'm grateful. So, it's best we count our own blessing and respect each other's, knowing that some callings in life, or some glory to another, though the person wasn't as hearsome as you were in school, you cannot snatch away through spite.
