Times may be hard for Charlie Boy, as the eccentric Area Fada has reportedly come out to declare that he’s financially troubled. 
In an article posted on <a href="http://metronaija.com/i-cant-sleep-at-night-im-running-low-on-cash-charly-boy/">MetroNaija</a>
 allegedly written by Charlie Boy titled “Escape From The Wilderness”, 
he talks in full length about his current situation and more. 
Read it below. 
<blockquote>
Does
 anyone know how I really feel right now? So alone and empty, God! how I
 feel the pain. If you’re in the wilderness like me, then you know it 
can be insane. Here, my eyes are bleeding tears and my smiles are 
protecting my fears. I can’t even go around and fake happy, because I’m 
in stagnation and it is hitting me from all directions. There is this 
disturbing feeling that time is passing me by, yet I’m paralyzed, I 
can’t move and I can’t think too far. 
At nights I can’t sleep too 
easy, my heart is sore and my mind perpetually clustered with things 
that leave me shaking. Oh!!! God why? I have prayed I have fasted but 
nothing has changed, it’s almost a year now. </blockquote>
<blockquote>
My dreams are nothing 
but nightmares of all the negatives in this wilderness. What’s happening
 to me? Look at me, I have always enjoyed comforting and giving 
directions to people in pain, right now I can’t even save myself and I 
have refused to take my own pills.Na so life be? On top of all of this, 
I’m so f…..king broke it’s a shame. 
No! It’s not just that I’m low
 in cash, but most importantly, it is about being in this state of 
helplessness, I’m not too proud to ask anyone for favour, but who will 
believe I need financial help when they have put me on such a high 
pedestal. 
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
Wow, is this a case of Grace to Grass? Who would guess 
I’m dying slowly when all they can see is my biceps and triceps. I have 
always been the joy giver, I have put smiles on millions of faces and 
have inspired and motivated an army of youths, yet I can’t seem to talk 
myself out of this rot, out of this wilderness,hummmmm!! Why won’t this 
feeling of hopelessness leave me alone, I know I can do more than I’m 
doing for now, I know I deserve more. 
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
Too many times I have asked 
God, why me, why do I have to go through this wilderness. I am 
hardworking, forward looking, positive thinking, so why do I have to 
suffer like this. Is it the system or is it me, what the heck is this 
dark cloud that has come over me. I no longer look forward to 
tomorrow or getting out of my bed, because a new day comes without hope.
 Nothing seems to make sense anymore; nothing around me inspires me 
again. 
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
I feel like I’m vegetating, I feel as if I I’m glued to 
this limbo, with no hope of an escape. Now I’m hugging myself, not 
sharing myself with my loved ones because I am suddenly taking out my 
frustrations on the people around me. Oh! Lord I must take control of my
 life; again, I must escape from this wilderness.Does this sound a bit 
or a lot like your story right now? Are you in that dark place in your 
life, where everything more or less seems to be grinding to a halt and 
you don’t know what to do? Well, it happens to the best of us.</blockquote>
I
 have learnt that in all things, one should give thanks. Most of the 
time we are not entirely grateful for what we possess, because we always
 believe that we need more than we have right now. If this is the case, 
we will continue to need more. This cycle will perpetuate as long 
as our mind believes it’s true. If we focus on what we have and not what
 we lack, we will always have enough, because it will always be enough. 
Yes, it is hard to stay cool when things are not sitting right, the way 
we would like in our lives. We are the ones who lose in the end, if we 
lose the lesson. Shey you dey feel my yarn? In this wilderness I have 
learnt that a rich man is not someone who has the most, but someone who 
needs the least. 
 
Yesooooooo!!!!! I’m sharing all this with you so I
 can feel lighter. We will always have problems, often tested by 
circumstances outside our control, but we certainly can control our 
reaction to those situations. We have the power because our inner world 
(cause) affects the influence we allow the outer world (effect) to have 
on us. Being in the wilderness is always a result of anxiety about the 
uncertain future. So, let’s stop and ask ourselves. 
 
“What’s the 
specific uncertainty that is causing you to be afraid” once you have 
identified that uncertainty, it is usually easier to simply accept its 
presence in your life, just for the time being. I know that life is 
about the journey and not the arrival. We don’t need to arrive if we 
accept that we are already there. Not everyone woke up this morning and 
not everyone is going to bed tonight. Life has no guarantees; every 
minute we are living is a blessing that has to be experienced in the 
moment. It’s not always easy, but it’s always an option or a choice. May be it’s time for him to run to master Jesus. 
Get well soon Charly Boy.
