He Will Be Disappointed #2
It is never too late for anyone to discover his/herself in life. Discovering this talent of writing makes me feel elated...
Those who have been blessed above others within the island also support the island with
Gifts in cash and kind. As the Visioner has envisaged, Youths who have been unmarried and
Who are talented could easily find people to be married to during the fiesta and those who
Wanted to take new wives were able to get new and beautiful ladies among those people.
The program has been ongoing for close to five decades now without no hassles. The last
Fiesta produces a star who helps his team to break forth, among others. The village which he
And his choir team represents has never won the competition before, the closest they have
gotten to was semifinal stage, beyond that they have not been able to advance further. But
This star shone like sun in the firmament, like moon on the dark day, like uncommon star that
Pierces through the darkest firmament in an uncommon day. After each of their songs
From the preliminary stages, he has been going home with one gift or another, for the people
Would say, his voice has been wonderful outside their songs making a mark in their hearts,
Meeting with their needs at that time. Through this means, they defeated all other villages
Choir hands down to win the competition. Before the competition is over, some of the
Wealthy people within the island have come together and have said they will offer the team a
Special gift apart from the common gift they are to receive because they have performed
Exceptionally. They are simply wonderful! Those people said during their meeting. The gift
They have packaged for the team was in form of money and they give it unto the young man,
Asking him to give it unto his team members accordingly. He thanked them. On opening
The gift and noticing that huge money has been packaged for the team, the money “entered
His eyes, into his brains” and he had another thought within him, “what would those people
Have done without him?” He asks no one but himself. If not because of him that has been
Included in the team, they would not have won, they cannot win, for the village has not won
The competition since the time of its inception about five decades ago, he says to himself, he

Will not share with anyone out of the large sum, it is the reward of his talent, assuming
The people want the money to be shared among the choral team, they would have handed this
Money over to their choral leader who will evenly distribute the money among them but
Since has not happened, the money is meant for me and me alone. They had said this so
That people will not envy him nor want to attack him he reasoned internally and would not
Give anyone out of the money. Those who have given the money out were expecting some
Changes from members of the choir and a thank you word from them, but when this does
Not happen, some of them become inquisitive and wish to know what happened were they so
Daft as not to know how to say thank you, or maybe the young man has not present the
Message to them very well, maybe that was why none of them seemly find it fit to thank
Them. They invited their leader and asks him of how they are preparing for the next fiesta,
For if they can repeat what they have done that year they surely will double the gift they have
Given them this year, they told the person. He appreciates them and told them that, they
Have not started serious training but that would soon start for they do not wish to release the
Cup to any other village, it is in their plan to defend the cup and maintain it for three
Consecutive years and win the cup for keeps. They all laughed and said, other villages
Would not fold their arms and see them defeat them again, for they have started training, they
Said unto the choral leader. He thanked them and replied that, it does not matter if they have
All started training, it is not how far, but how well, winning a battle is not for the person
Who wills neither for a person who wants to win, nor for the person who struggles to win, but
Its God who shows mercy.
