In a quiet village surrounded by hills and flowing rivers lived two young boys, Emeka and Tunde. They were the same age, but their lives were shaped by very different beginnings.
Emeka: The Boy Taught About God
Emeka grew up in a warm, loving home. His parents were devoted, prayerful people who taught him everything they knew about God.
Every night, his mother would read to him from the holy books. His father would explain life, destiny, and morality in the way he had been taught by his own parents.
Emeka absorbed everything—but only to the level his parents understood.
He grew up believing that spirituality had borders, lines, and rules that could not be crossed. His world of faith was structured, familiar, and safe. But without realizing it, Emeka inherited his parents’ limitations too.
His spiritual journey was real, but shaped by someone else’s experience.
Tunde: The Orphan With No Teacher
On the other side of the village lived Tunde, an orphan who had no mother, father, or guardian to teach him what to believe. He had no bedtime stories, no religious explanations, no doctrines.
But he had something most people never discover—freedom.
Every night, Tunde watched the stars and wondered who made them.
Every morning, he listened to the birds and felt there must be something greater.
He learned spirituality from silence, from nature, from intuition, from life itself.
Without anyone telling him what to think, he learned to think for himself.
His understanding of God wasn’t limited by tradition; it grew as wide as his imagination.
Where Emeka had borders, Tunde had open skies.
Their Paths Cross
One day, the two boys became friends. They began sharing their understanding of God, faith, and destiny.
Emeka spoke confidently about everything he had been taught.
Tunde listened, fascinated—but then he shared things Emeka had never heard before:
How he felt God in the wind,
How he saw guidance in dreams,
How he understood people through their energy,
How the world itself taught him lessons.
Emeka was stunned.
“How did you learn all of that?” he asked.
Tunde smiled softly.
“I listened to my own soul. No one limited my understanding.”
The Lesson
As they grew older, both boys learned a powerful truth:
Everyone is taught according to someone else’s limits…
…but your personal understanding has no limits.
Emeka learned that spirituality isn’t only what others pass down.
Tunde learned that knowledge grows deeper when shared.
And together, they discovered the perfect balance:
Take what you are taught—but never stop discovering what only YOU can understand.
The Message
No matter your background—whether you were taught everything, taught a little, or taught nothing—your understanding can grow beyond anyone’s expectations.
Teachers give you the starting point.
Life gives you the rest.
Your soul completes the journey.
