If I had known



If I had known....

If I had known the rain will fall, I would have gone out with my umbrella.
If I had known I will meet beans at home, I would have bought bread along.
If I had known I won't pass last year's Jamb, I would have save my money for this year.
If I had known blade will cut my hand, I wouldn't have played with it.
If had known my past will affect my present, I would have taken caution .
If I had known jollof rice won't be served at the party, I would have stayed at home.
If I had known Manchester City will loss UEFA 2021 I would have supported Chelsea...
If we all given opportunity to back to our past, we will all have somethings to amend....but lo!
We only have the present...
We don't even have the future cos we don't know if we're gonna be there.
