During the fishing festival in the coastal city of Plymouth, in the United Kingdom, a fishing competition was held. I and my friends went for the event and as well participated in the competition. The competition demands that whoever catches the biggest fish will emerge the winner and will go home with lots of prizes and above all, THE GOLDEN HOOK and FISH.

When the competition started, other participant were catching big fishes, some fish were as big as a Young Shark. However, I was not discouraged, but kept on searching. Then suddenly, I caught a small fish of many colours, so beautiful that it has Gold and Silver scales round its body, the eyes were like diamonds in the sun, shining so bright. I have never seen it before in my life. I love fish and care so much for it, for it was so beautiful, precious than any other fish in the ocean. Its kind is UNCOMMON. But because of the demand of the competition that the biggest must be caught, I let the fish slipped away. Who knows? May be it would have made me win the Competition.

So, I threw my fishing hook into the sea again and I caught a bigger fish, completely different from the Special Fish. It was just like a normal fish other people were catching, and it was able to push me to the Fourth position. I was Unhappy because the most valuable, beautiful and special had slipped away. Who knows May be it would have made me emerge the Winner in the Competition.

So, I threw my hook into sea again if I could get this special fish but all to no avail. I even went as far as jumping into the sea to try my luck again, but all to no avail. I and my friend went back home sharing our experience at the fishing festival. When we got home, I called my closest friend, Cyril, he is like a brother to me, he is also my mentor, I told him about the fish and he said to me. “That is the most special and biggest fish in the ocean; you can never get a Fish like that again”. Only if I could find it again. I kept wandering, how it could be the biggest fish in the ocean, when it looks so small and there are other fish bigger than it 2000 times. He answered and said to me again” It’s all about value. That fish is the most valuable fish in the ocean; this is life’s lesson telling you never to let a God given opportunity Slip away like that special Fish”. I reasoned with him.

To me that SPECIAL FISH was the biggest fish in the ocean. The reason being that it carries more value than any physical big. You know I could have won the competition and have the Golden Hook and Fish if only I knew the worth and value and worth of the fish. Cyril said “One never knows the value of what he/she has or possess until someone else values it for him/her” Oh My Special Fish.
