I want you to be my buddy for life reset
He sat down, then stood again and walked around for a while. Turned back to where he was coming from and stopped on the track with both arms around his waist. His face is the real display rack of a confused fellow. He threw all caution into the air and sat right back into the dust.
He has come to admit to himself that he’s actually at a serious crossroads in his life and escape seems difficult. He covered his face with both hands and shouted out in frustration. A passerby got distracted or rather attracted to the noise and sought him out.
“Young man, is everything alright?”
Silence
“Talk to me. Sharing your feelings is not a sign of weakness but a sign of strength. Moreover, a problem shared is 50% solved.”
That statement got to him, he looked up and took a deep breath. He felt in him that he could trust the stranger and talk to him.
“My life is disordered. A serious crossroad. I’m completely lost. I don’t know the way forward, I can’t go backward because that’s not the kind of life I desired and I don’t know how to get to the other side. I’m stuck.”
He smiled gently at him, “Thanks for sharing. Here take my hand,’ with his hand in his, he pulled the young guy up. “I’ll tell you all you need.”
Surprise creased his eyebrow, “Really?”
“Yeah!”
“All you need to do is reset your life to factory default.”
The guy shot a surprised glance at him. “I don’t get you?”
He responded with a smile but his expression suddenly turned serious, “Reset to a factory default is If you’re referring to resetting your life in a metaphorical sense. Go back to God. He owns the factory where He created you and He’s willing to reset your life to the original and true state.”
The young guy stared at him for a while in silence and same time reminisced on his words. Finally, he spoke out.
“Please be my buddy.”
“Yeah! I’m more than willing.”
Both held hands and he led the way telling him the right steps to take in resetting his life.
