The word BREAK and how it changes its meaning as you grow..

Break was one of my favorite word during my childhood years. It signified good things that I really enjoyed. For example, I was very fond of the terms "breakfast,"  and "break-time" and I adored these two terms. Going to school without breakfast was not a pleasant thing the same as the bell-ringer trying to late break-time with even a micro-second. 

The second time I interacted with the word "break" I was already a teenager. My voice was breaking and by now you could differentiate my voice from a girl's. It did not take long before i moved to the next stage of the word break. Breaking  virginity, okay for boys its no big deal but for our ladies, its quite some serious business. The word break did not give me a break as i found a breakthrough during the weekend challenge in high school. By then I was holier than thou but it was just a matter of days before I broke into a form one's box.  This meant that I had broken the rules and the discipline committee had to break my stealing spirit. Before I could realize anything, I was in my mother's yard after a nightlong beating. I was now pleading for forgiveness and promising to  never break away again. 

Time went and the word "break" was not leaving me. I found love, I was swept head over heels (I know that is for ladies, but believe you me), I sung her name every now and then, we broke the internet as we posted every move we made together, I was truly in love. I broke into her heart like a thief in the night. She would break my boredom with her romantic SMS and I would reply with an erotic emoji which made her know my intentions of breaking her dryspell during the night. However, it did not take long, we broke up. For the simplest reason that I was broke, she wanted a financially stable man. I broke into tears, my heart broke into pieces, my esteem crushed into powder as I watched her break-away from our love. She needed a break.

"break-failure" I once heard the driver scream, it was a moment that would break life into death. The vehicle we were in had a technical problem and fear engulfed us. And now dear skirts and trousers, the word break changes its meaning, depending with the events in life, but one major thing I have come to learn is, NEVER ALLOW YOUR SPIRIT TO BE BROKEN.
