If you attended a boarding school or better still NYSC
orientation camp you may be able to relate when bathing or washing clothes or
plates and the soap slips off your hands... The soap picks up dirt or sand (if
it's not so tush like the one I attended) from the ground. You either throw it
away as fresh students/corper or say beginning of 1st term because you still
have provisions. Alternatively; you pick the soap and give it a good wash and
then continue when visiting day is far or term wants to end or 'alawee' still
far. Some of us have done both.
But I'm sure we don't use the sand to wash the soap rather we still use the soap to wash itself.
Some of us are like soaps. We do things for others, take care of them and make them comfortable and help them when they fall in the dirt of need which is good, but the down side is we forget to take care of ourselves. When we fall, we throw pity a party and sulk in our own dirt waiting for sands to come wash us. Not everyone is as nice as you.
This message is for all the good "soaps" out there. You also deserve a good bathe. Give yourself a treat. Be nice to yourself. Be your own hero. Pray for yourself. Spend time with yourself. Have your own "me time" & meet the needs of your own relationships/family also because, you may never love others better than you love yourself.
