Once upon a time, there lived two sister who were twins. They were living with their parent who were poor. Their parent struggled everyday to make both ends meet. Their father was full of wisdom and he always created time to counsel his daughters about the need to be patient in whatever they were doing. He talked to them about so many other virtues, lile tolerance, endurance, good behaviour and he always ended his talk with a saying that ``whoever had patience had everything.`` When these twins were eighteen years old, their father died. They felt greatly the impact of their father`s demise because they lost a good companion who also counselled them and a breadwinner. Soon after the death of their father, their mother found things difficult. As a result of this she took the twins to her distant relation who was living a few kilometres away. Their mother`s relation accepted them but he was a cruel man who maltreated the girls so much. They were to do all the house chores and followed the man to the farm. While they worked so hard at home, the mans only daughter will sleep endlessly. She was very lazy and spoilt. One day, Bolaji, the man`s daughter went to the man`s room and stole four thousand naira. The man furiously called the twins. Concluding that they stole his money. The twins were severly purnished for what they didnt do. The hard life and suffering continued for a long time. One day kehinde called her twin, Taiwo and told her that she want to run away to her mother. Taiwo reminded her that she should remember their late fathers advice to be patient. Kehinde refused to listen and so she ran to her mum. kehinde couldnt further her education so she got married at age twentyone to a poor man. Soon after the marriage there mother died. Taiwo felt the grieve of her mother`s death and she was determined more than ever to be patient to get what she want. As time went on the man started to like her and decided to sponsor her to university to study accountancy. Taiwo finished her university education and graduated as an account. Three years after graduation, she got married to a pilot and she lived happy with her husband. After her marriage, she got a job with an international organisation which necessitated that she should go and work in usa. Before she travelled, a send-off party was organised for her. The man who sponsored her to school was invited to the party. Bolaji and Kehinde were also present. When the man rose up to talk about Taiwo, he praised her for her endurance and patience. He ended up his speach by saying that ``I really agree that a patient dog eats the fattest bone`` Author: Me
