The Motivational Speaker

They all come from all walks of life seeking solutions to their problems . . .Seeking answers from the motivational speaker . . .'SST, really I feel I’m not worthy to be here,' she spoke softly again, displaying a reluctance to speak out. I immediately got interested! From experience, such people have interesting stories that will make my day. 'My sister, don’t worry, you have come where your problems will be attended to.' I was cajoling her to speak out! 'And please, I didn’t get your name, or you don’t feel like telling me?' I said. 'It’s not like that, SST! It’s just that I don’t think I should say what I want to say.' She was shying away. I was right. She didn’t want her name to be mentioned, there’s a story all right!She came back reluctantly.'OK. SST, my name is Joan,' she said.Joan like hell!No problem, I can use that name. Names are like ages. They really don’t count on my show because you hardly get the true dose, all the same I just needed it for the reference. 'OK, Joan, what’s the issue? Let me see your steps, the floor is all yours now.' I decided to spur her. I haven’t got all day even if she was my only caller. 'Joan, let’s hear you before our shot time is up, and we might just miss you for life.' I was pushing her.That seemed to wake her, and from then, she started coming out like a canary. When something is bottled up for so long inside someone and it wants to spurt out, a small nod will collapse the whole balloon. 'SST, you see, I never knew my life will drain to this level. I was not brought up to be like this. I had a good family upbringing, nice parents that wanted the best for me. It was not meant to be like this for me. I bet I was left astray by the company I made in school.'That’s it, she is talking now!You can’t put it down once you start reading . . .
