The therapy we are taking for granted



I was on the phone with a friend some days back. While we talked, something kept happening.According to her, her father occasionally stopped by her door to look in… probably to see if she was alright. You know how it is when you get carried away by a phone conversation and laugh or speak a little louder?It was when he did that the third time that we ended the call so that she could see if her father needed something. She told me that he’s been doing “holidays” at her place.I was smiling to myself when we ended the call because she sounded like a little girl each time she said, “my daddy”.One of the things that a good friend did when her relationship of seven years packed up was to travel to her village. She told me that the man said he wanted more for himself and didn’t see marriage in his immediate future plans. So, they parted ways. But four months later, he married a medical doctor in the U.S. and relocated.This lady worked with an NGO at the time, and even that job was not steady, although she had a master’s degree. When she told me that all she wanted to do was to go home and keep crying in her mother’s arms, I understood. Her mother is a widow, and she is the woman’s only daughter.I remember calling her a few times while she was in the village, and her usual response was, “It’s so peaceful here.” And then she would tell me how she often followed her mother to the farm and ended up doing nothing besides plucking wild fruits.She came back after about a month. She was a different person.A year or so later, she got married at about 40 years of age.Today, she has her own children (two). She lives in the U.S. with a husband who did not have to live in the U.S. to relocate his family there.This next story is that of another friend, whose marriage packed up in Canada.According to him, five years after their relocation to Canada, he explained to his woman (whose master’s degree he sponsored over there) that his business in Nigeria was doing very well and it was time for them to move back home with their children. The woman looked him in the eye and declared, “Over my dead body.”He left his family there for about two years as he shuttled between Nigeria and Canada, involving their priests and families to talk sense into her. But he got home one day to see the divorce papers her lawyers (over there) sent to him. He had already lost the house he bought over there, and the woman was drawing the attention of the authorities to his assets in Nigeria.On one of the days we spoke over the phone, he sounded unusually cheerful. When I asked what was amusing him, he told me that he was giving his father a haircut while the old man regaled him with tales of olden days.Related NewsAlaafin adjusts Oro festival movement restriction for female studentsAnambra First Lady urges healthy lifestyles on World Brain DayI’ll wear ‘Akwete’ wrapper if my husband is re-elected as president — Oluremi TinubuHe told me that he went to bring his father to keep him company for a while because his father was the only person he was in the mood to see. He added, “My friends don’t even know I am in the country.”I am telling you from experience that our parents are a therapy like no other.There is something about their presence that says, “You will be okay.”When my parents were alive, nowhere felt safer than their space.Nowhere was more relaxing than Mama’s house.No illness or emotional trouble withstood their loving presence.Sometimes, let your parents see your vulnerability.Their prayers or counsel can envelop your life with unimaginable calmness.I have never met anybody who claims they don’t go home or have no relationship with their parents who is emotionally stable. And it tells me that we are not meant to wander too far from our roots.People travel far and wide for prayers, and I ask… what’s wrong with your parents praying for you?As far as I am concerned, nobody represents God better than the very womb that conceived you and the loins that sired you!Where I come from, when you sojourn out there and your path seems to be littered with obstacles, you can come back home so that the elders in the family can come together to pray for you.This practice is very potent, but how would you know when every elderly person around you is fast making it onto your list of “witches and wizards”?There are solutions that are not out there but in your roots.

This next story is that of another friend, whose marriage packed up in Canada.According to him, five years after their relocation to Canada, he explained to his woman (whose master’s degree he sponsored over there) that his business in Nigeria was doing very well and it was time for them to move back home with their children. The woman looked him in the eye and declared, “Over my dead body.”He left his family there for about two years as he shuttled between Nigeria and Canada, involving their priests and families to talk sense into her. But he got home one day to see the divorce papers her lawyers (over there) sent to him. He had already lost the house he bought over there, and the woman was drawing the attention of the authorities to his assets in Nigeria.On one of the days we spoke over the phone, he sounded unusually cheerful. When I asked what was amusing him, he told me that he was giving his father a haircut while the old man regaled him with tales of olden days.Related NewsAlaafin adjusts Oro festival movement restriction for female studentsAnambra First Lady urges healthy lifestyles on World Brain DayI’ll wear ‘Akwete’ wrapper if my husband is re-elected as president — Oluremi TinubuHe told me that he went to bring his father to keep him company for a while because his father was the only person he was in the mood to see. He added, “My friends don’t even know I am in the country.”I am telling you from experience that our parents are a therapy like no other.There is something about their presence that says, “You will be okay.”When my parents were alive, nowhere felt safer than their space.Nowhere was more relaxing than Mama’s house.No illness or emotional trouble withstood their loving presence.Sometimes, let your parents see your vulnerability.Their prayers or counsel can envelop your life with unimaginable calmness.I have never met anybody who claims they don’t go home or have no relationship with their parents who is emotionally stable.
