At the age of fourteen (14) I actually faced challenges that are more than me while growing up as a boy, I mean I was faced a lot, I happened to find myself in a family where we were more than ten persons staying together in a room.it wasn't easy to live a comfortable life and also to feed was a big problem, I have to join some wheelbarrow group so that I can sponsor myself in school, it was a terrible experience I faced at my early life at that age. I never allowed all I was passing through to weigh me down.
Since I lost my father when I was six years old, things have not been rosy for me and my younger sister. I started taking responsibility for all of my activities at the age of fourteen (14) years, and I also began thinking like a man because I could help. Prior to that, I was more like an orphan because I couldn't find my mother. I realized then that there was only God and no other help.
Finally, after successfully funding all of my school activities on my own, I made a choice that caused me a great deal of pain, but today I am grateful that I did. We occasionally need to step outside of our comfort zone, even though we will encounter many difficulties and difficulties, but everything works out in the end, even though not everyone succeeds.
After my secondary results came out, I discovered I didn't make some papers which really weighed me down so badly, but I still got encouraged by myself, I told myself that I will never back down no matter what.
The day I made the drastic decision came and everyone was like you, this kid, do you even know what you are doing to yourself because I already had a group of friends in which we were traveling together? We were four friends full of determination to put and end the sufferings. After many talks and all, I still did not listen to what anyone was telling me, I was already tired of how life was treating, no one to help.
I finally left home for Ibadan so that I can get a better job to further my education to university level, I stayed with my friends for years, that was how the hustle started, to cut the story short, after so many years of struggles and sufferings, I can say I survived at last, and I came out forceful because life really taught me lessons.
Thank you for reading my post.

It's so pitiful. You lost your father at an early age and couldn't find your mother, though I'm wondering what actually happened.
Life isn't a bed of roses. For one to achieve success and be great in life, he has to be hardworking and consistent as well.
Congrats on your achievements and good luck to more in the future.

You're welcome sire
This is a heartfelt read of some of the struggles that you have overcome. I would have loved for you to have shown the full story and character arc instead of ending the piece so abruptly. There is a sense that the piece is unfinished and the ending somewhat rushed. It would have been nice to hear about what happened to turn your life around so positively instead of ending like this...
Your piece would also benefit from using a grammar checker to elevate your writing.

Hmmmm, the position of a father really open and no one could fill that space, father in every family is like a pole that holds the house and once that pole collapse then the family has to run for their dear life if not if might not balance again.
And non of those children might get on their feet but an glad you and your sister didn't sleep in it you guys run for your dear life and you came out beautifully.
