Please take note that this article is a flashback to the year 2020 following the coronavirus outbreak. I just realized I never shared it after looking through my drafts.

There are so many questions on your mind right now and I am here to answer them all. But first, how was 2020 at your end?

I am grateful to God for all of my lovely friends; they are more than enough for me, and I’m delighted you are one of them as well. On a gorgeous day, a buddy of mine called and asked if I would be interested in working where he did his IT. I said sure. To summarize, I simply didn’t want to stay at home during that time. Mr. Coronavirus wasn’t making things enjoyable either, and my house, ha! The light was not my friend, and the system I was using only lasted for 30 minutes, regardless of how many times or how long I charged it. But that’s a story for another day. You now see why my yes wasn’t dragging 🤗.

So, the week after our discussion I was invited for a virtual interview, which was a success. All thanks to God. And I got invited into the company that was around November 2020.

This was a walk into work. I met different people, my boss, my senior devs, and my mentor at the place of work. Going to the office wasn’t easy at first, after staying at home for almost a year. I became a different person entirely, speaking or trying to express myself was not funny and was so difficult, my self-esteem was on a low because I was used to staying on my own,I have a little space in my head I do call it my safe space it was during the Covid that the space grew bigger and took over the other rooms in my head 🤣, taking all decisions in my head and at one corner in my world.

Everything was like a new ward after stepping out of my safe space. Well, I still zoom in sometimes and it is when I am trying to run from hurt most times I just enter the corner room and lock up. Nothing in the world matters again just the movies I replay in my head count 🤣🤣.

With the help of God, my colleagues, and my friends, I was able to break through the wall and everything started to form a word, which was used in building fresh walls into a new world.

Words cannot express my gratitude towards everyone who has helped me one way or the other out of my dark ward to a bright world. Thanks.

Big thanks to my faithful readers. Do check in for more.
