The struggle to accumulate wealth before we vanish from the face of the land is real, everyone is fighting to climb the ladder as fast as they can,
The urge to surpass the world’s richest man Mr. Jeff Bezos the Amazon founder, or Aliko Dangote; the richest man in black Africa before the sun goes down, is on another level,
The fact that life will never give us a second chance scares me alot! You know that ancient quote that time waits for no man, right?
That once a second, a minute or an hour slips away from your fingers, no matter how powerful you are, man, you’ll never recover it untill you kick the black bucket?
There’s one lesson that life has ruthlessly taught me; all of us has made choices in the past, but in our own selfish ways we took the wrong path,
Despite being warned on the dangers pertaining such lanes, we turned a deaf ear and walked right into the epicenter of a whirling wind,
After losing all we had to the wind, we came back home naked, in our natural suit, with a grieving heart, “I wish I had listened to him!”
That’s when you wholesomely agree to the quote that says “every choice had it’s own consequences!”
At some point in our early teenage years we made choices that seemed to be perfect, little did we know they were deadly as mamba poison,
After watching numerous films of our glorified celebrities around the world, some of us couldn’t control ourselves, we went ahead and inscribed tattoos on our beautiful dark skin,
At that point no one absolutely, would attempt throwing soft javelins of advices to us, we were never ready to listen, anyone who was against the idea automatically became an enemy,
We are now living with the scars, like a soldier we’re bold outside, but deep down we are wounded but life goes on,
If life was like a software, with an option of uninstalling, by the time we’re approaching 30 we could have re-installed it a million times,
To the younger boys and girls outside there, the world is like a boxing match, once you make a wrong move be prepared with an umbrella, cos it’s gonna rain punches, trust me!
Listen closely to the pieces of advice from the elderly, avoid the crowd mentality, that Jack and Susan did it, why not me?
A prominent American film maker by the name Andy Rooney once said that, “the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person” I can’t agree more!
