Long life and good health are the most precious things obtainable on earth. She has lived for more than 102 years, and there is no mention of sickness in her story. Life can be bitter for anybody. Some doers of bad rejoice and some cry. Some doers of good rejoice while some cry. But character is not defined by outcome but by intention and approach. Let me, in my own understanding, define this woman. She has been consistent in keeping her virginity with respect to her culture. This translates to self control. She has been relentless in keeping alive her hope of finding John again. Patience, whether rewarded or unrewarded, is a virtue. One may blame her for putting all her eggs in one basket. One may call her a fool for remaining faithful to her cultural belief and for keeping herself for only John. But she is a proof that there are true lovers. 157 Likes 7 Shares |

In her prime, Mama was obviously one of those young, impressionable African virgin maiden. The type we used to read about in fairy tales aye atijo ![]() The reason why I reached this conclusion is that if Mama had been in her late 20s, 30s or 40s when she met John, there wouldn't have been any potential for this kind of romantic relationship between them because she would have been a married woman. In those old days, African girls (and boys for that matter) used to marry early. Usually by the age of 19 at the most, a typical African girl in those days would already be married and expecting child number 2 or 3. So if Mama is 103, then we can safely conjecture that she would have been around 16 or 17 when she met John which would place their romantic encounter sometime in the 1930s! This is ancient history we're talking about. Sadly, it seems that Mama attached more significance to the relationship than John did, which would explain why he never bothered informing her before he left. Of course, if he had abandoned her with a pregnancy, that would be an entirely different story, but he seems to have respected her enough to leave her as the virgin he met, so we must concede that John had a degree of decency. My verdict: Mama wasted her life. She deprived herself of the chance to experience the joys of motherhood and family life, all because of wishful thinking. If you read the story in its entirety, nowhere does she say that John made a categorical vow that he would return for her. She reached that conclusion on her own. 95 Likes 13 Shares |

Some people really know how to love. It reminds me of a northern Muslim girl I met while serving in Kano State. She loved me with all her heart. That kind of love fills you with fear because you know this person has given herself completely to you.

Women will never want you if they ain’t getting nothing in return. Don’t be deceived with the “I love Yiu “ cliché,it’s not real. What makes humans live in harmony is actually understanding. Don’t be deceived with all these “I love you” gimmicks. They will only love you when they’re getting something in return. No comment; next question. 6 Likes |
