Hello friends,
Just want to let you know
that today is Wednesday the 3rd day of July 2019 and exactly on this same date
so many years ago, Ezinne Lois Adaezi Oguzie (nee Uzowuru) of blessed memory entered
the Labour Room at Obioma Maternity Owerri where with the help of Matron
Elfreda Aguta (nee Ukonu) she gave birth
to her first Child and Son whom she called Ikechukwu.
My Father was so pleased
with the arrival of the new baby that he decided to call him Henry because
according to him, he was smitten by the achievements of Henry the Navigator and
wished that his first son would be such an achiever too.
He also called him Obinna
because according to him he had earnestly desired and prayed for a male child
as his first issue and God answered his prayers.
My Parents took special
care of me and even with the arrival of the other children after me, they still
believed that I was special and held nothing back.
I also earnestly believe
that though they have gone to join the Saints Triumphant waiting for the
resurrection morning but the little time I had with them, I tried to live up to
their billings.
I am eternally grateful to
them for the special care and love they bestowed on me, without them, I just
wonder where I would have been but more of my gratitude goes to God the Father
of light and from Whom all good and perfect gifts come for His Guidance and
Protection all these long years.
With my birthday
today, I have completed a full cycle.
The next cycle is about to
kick off from the 4th of July 2019
Though we are retired but
certainly not tired, we may be bogged down with debts but we are not dead yet,
we may be on the floor and clawing but we still have warm blood flowing in our
veins and as the Scriptures make me to understand, I try to be "anxious
for nothing" because I know that He Who owns me, owns my future too
and no matter how bleak it is today, it
shall come to pass and that, sooner than we may ever care to know.
To all you who have
allowed me to share your moments here online and in real life, I salute you and
thank you for the priviledge.
To those who have reached
out and touched me in one special way or the other, this is my appreciative
note.
To my ever loving, devoted
and doting wife (what more can a man ask for in a wifey??) I doff my cap. In my
next world, I would still be married to you.
And the young man who is
touching the skies with his height and whom I now have to look up in order to
talk to, to Jerry - the Second my first son, thank you for being part of my
life.
Another journey has
commenced, I ask but one thing, that God accompanies me more.
Have a blessed day y'all
and do have a bottle on my behalf where-ever you may be
Cheers to a new beginning
Amb. Sir, Dr. Jerry - the
First Oguzie: JP
