While growing up, my son became very fond of watching animated programmes on TV with 'Thomas & Friends' as his favourite. His dad and I saw how much he loved the characters in the programme and decided to throw him a surprise by getting a Thomas toy for him. The moment he saw it he was over the moon. He played with his Thomas always, he goes out with it and even shares the bed with it, that was how much he loved Thomas.
On one particular day while playing with Thomas, Thomas accidentally lost its head and that was how it became the headless Thomas.
That didn't change a thing because he still played with the headless toy whenever he had the opportunity to. No one thought the head could be fixed and we just left Thomas headless for a long while.
I bought a superglue to fix an earring, suddenly Blessing remembered the headless Thomas and thought it could be fixed. So she eventually applied the glue to Thomas' neck and bingo! Thomas was whole again. When my son noticed that Thomas had its head again the excitement on his face was indescribable.
This event made my thoughts stray to so many things. A question like 'why did we have to wait this long before fixing it?' popped up. It took just N70 glue to make it perfect again. If I had thrown it away and bought another one. I would have wasted some naira on what could have been easily fixed.
The same goes to our relationships, why wait till the relationship turns sour when you can mend those loop holes in your relationship. Sometimes as little as saying sorry might seem, it can mend a whole lot in a relationship. If saying sorry can fix it now, fix it by saying sorry. Don't wait till a molehill turns into a mountain so you won't start making a mountain out of a molehill.
For the married couples, do you really have to wait till divorce becomes the only option when you could have easily mended your relationships?
