Living in the Dreamers’ Island #9
Exploring my talent, putting it into use in the literary world for the benefit of humanity and promotion of communication
When the lady was sad about the whole issue and news her sister asks her not to be
Saddened but to leap up for joy because the Almighty has taken away from him impending
Danger. When she told her sister that she wants to go and see him for herself, her sister
Discourages her from going to him saying she should forget about him and chart a new
Path for herself. Her contact with some other friends also revealed that they were toeing the
Same path that she should not bother her head going to see him for if she sees him and saw
His new status, she may for a long time not be herself again and they would not want that
To happen to her, he is dying and she should leave him to die gently, your seeing her some
Added may even add to the sorrow in his heart, it is better you do not go to him they
Counseled. After many deliberations with people as it is said in a holy writ that
“For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there
Is safety” she decides to do what the people have been counseling her to do, not going
To see him neither waiting for him again. From her, evil has been averted she reasoned
That was how she gets involved with someone else and forgets about him. People’s report
About his health have not changed, and some people too have decided that they will not
Be visiting him again for every time they paid him a visit they are saddened. He was
Left alone with his parents and other siblings. He was in the position for a whole year,
At the fourteenth month, he dreamt a dream in the dream he saw a man in white apparel
Talking with him, he was telling the man that the agony is too much and he prefers
Dying to living, that the white apparel man should let him go. But the man says, his time
On earth has not lapsed as he has more works to do on earth before he leaves the world
When You Believe ft. Mariah Carey
Therefore, his request to die would not be granted. He now raises the issue of the pain
He is passing through that is this how he shall continue to be in pains and suffering? The
Man replied that for that reason he has come with healing balm to heal him, as he said this
He opened the balm and gave it to him to rob on his body. He was saying he is too weak
To rob it on his body, but the man told him that he is not that spiritual is different from
Physical that he should try it. He dips his index finger into the balm which he started applying
On his body, intriguingly he discovers that he was able to rob those on his body. After
Rubbing the balm on his body, the man then poured certain thing on him which resembles
Oil and declared that today you have been healed and evils before thee have been taken
Away. After saying this, the young man woke up. And he discovers that he is sweating
Profusely from head to his toe. He knows that changes will come over his body. When his
Parents entered they saw that he has woken up, and sweating, they stayed by him. First thing
he noticed was that some pains he used to have he was not having again, and then the
Appetite that he has lost, he started regaining for before he cannot decipher between the
Foods that he puts into his mouth, he started deciphering the foods he puts in his mouth
He is yet being assisted to his feet by people, but not like before, as he also could
Stand without aid now, but though weak and was being tossed by air, he will need support
Not to fall down. This changes followed one another and he recovers fully. It was during
The period of his recovery that he asks about his fiancée and his parents could not
Answer him all they can say was that he has had no special female visitor who introduces
Herself as his fiancée during his recuperating period. All those who have been visiting have
Been his co-workers and some ladies who are living in the same compound with him
Where he was living. When he heard this he was yet not satisfied and was waiting for when
His cousin would visit the island again to ask of his fiancée from him.
