IN A LONELY WORLD.

He woke up earlier than His wife  which was quite unusual, because His wife normally wakes up earlier than Him and it became so strange that When He tried to wake her up, his hand passed through, he thought it was a dream until He was astonished standing in front of His lifeless body, He wondered why He was awake and His body was in the bed but it never occurred to him that  He was dead, He was still thinking whether it was a dream or He was under a spell, yet still He tried to open the door thinking His wife will wake up, but his hand passed through, this again surprised Him and he waited patiently until his wife tried to wake his lifeless body, but all to no avail. He called to her; “Honey am awake, look at me standing right next to You”, but she seemed not to be answering, this again surprised Him, he shouted and shouted but still no reply. It was when His wife broke the news to the children that He was dead that he now realized that He was gone, he was now history. Later that day, sympathizers and family members trooped in crying and panting, He thought of what will happen to all his wealth, what He had worked for all His life, his wife and children, who will marry his beautiful wife and take care of his children. He cried, shouted, He begged to be given back his life, but there was no reply, He was in a lonely world alone, no friends, no family and no colleagues. He had reached the climax of his life, he was now history and He had crossed to the great beyond, he was empty just like the way he came to the world, he was without anything, he had always thought his wealth, power and influence will be forever, he believed not in divine providence, His power, influence and wealth made him seem like a god and an immortal, but they all had vanished. He was now in another world, “Life after death” All the noise, hustle and bustle of the world was now gone, soon after spending some time roaming around the world lonely, He now set out on a long, narrow and lonely journey to the great beyond.... . ................

Life is a gift, cherish it and use it judiciously, because the person that gave You the gift can decide to take his property and give it to another, live a life that You will be proud of, but remember, the things of the world are temporary, they will soon vanish. Have an ultimate goal of having a lasting peace after death.
      “If You have nothing to live for,
        You are like a dead man”

IN A LONELY WORLD.


There is the story of a man, after working and acquiring so much wealth, power and influence, he had all the academic degrees You could think of, He was handsome and He married a beautiful Wife, He and His family lived in a big comfortable house and they rode one of the latest and most expensive cars in town, He was fulfilled and had achieved all His childhood dreams of becoming a wonderful CEO of a very big Multinational Company, He had a Bachelors degree, a MBA and a PHD degree,  He had everything He always wanted, The world indeed was at his feet and fingertips.
 This Man enjoyed life to the fullest, He thought He was immortal, He thought His wealth and riches will live with Him forever, He was carried away by all His possessions.
 One day, when He arrived from His normal business trips, He settled at Home, had a wonderful dinner with His family and they all planned and discussed about where they will travel to for their summer vacation, the plan was already in place, and they all went to bed as usual. But something unusual happened around 1:00AM in the middle of the night........  ...................

The problem of Africa is leadership, until Africa is governed by Young, vibrant, determined and passionate Youths, with vision, goals and aspirations, Africa will never progress. Africa have suffered long years of misrule, it is popularly said that with age comes wisdom, but in Africa with age comes corruption, vendetta and fight for power. When Young people take control of the helms of leadership, there is sure to be progress and not dormancy and stagnation. Old people will always look for old ways of doing things while Young People will always look for new ways of doing old things. That is the difference between Old and Young people.
Lets support Every Young man or woman vying for any elective or non elective post in Africa, lets support the movement, Youths are the Rescue Agents of Africa. Africa will be great again.
Support #NotTooYoungToRun. In all social media platforms.

HUMILITY

Good morning Everyone, its indeed a glamorous new week, we took a week break to refresh Ourselves, but we are back with exclusive words, thoughts and sayings from wise Men. Enjoy and stay blessed, don't only read, understand and get inspired.



Humility is an act and virtue Anyone aiming for the top of the ladder must possess. Anyone wishing to scale new heights must be humble.
We all love to pride on our achievements and what we can do, But with humility, You don't need to announce Yourself before You become celebrated. Your achievements will speak for You and not your words because words without actions or evidence is nothing. Your achievements are the evidence You have to make You announced.
Humble People are those who are at the top of the ladder but always want to be at the bottom of the ladder to help others rise. That is an irony of life. The more You bring Yourself low, the more You rise to the top and scale new heights.
Humility comes in different forms;
Apologising even when You are wrong
Serving others even when You have servants and Helpers
Volunteering for a greater cause.
Helping others even when You have so little.
Shutting up even when You have achieved something worthwhile.
Smiling always even to those You know or You don't know.
Relating with Everyone both at the bottom, middle and top of the ladder.
If You humble Yourself, You will be lifted up. Don't be full of Yourself, unless You will be reduced to nothing.
We rise to the top by humility and lifting Others while we fall to the ground by shunning Others and harbouring pride.
Great Men always rise to the top by serving others.
True humility is not thinking less of Yourself, it is thinking of Yourself less.
Don't boast in your ability or what You have or possess because what You think You can do, countless People can do it much more better than You or What You think You have, countless people have much more than You.
Do not strive to announce Yourself Anywhere You are becausebecause nature will announce You. A lion does not need to roar before its presence is noticed. Nature takes its course on a humble person by announcing that person. A humble Person is a noble Person in disguise

Ralph Waldo Emerson said;
A Great man is always willing to be little. 
Albert Einstein the greatest Physcist and one of the greatest Genius that ever lived admitted that He was nothing and He knew nothing.
Humility makes You realise that What You are or what You have is just a function of chance and privilege, not because its your right or You deserve it.
When You are humble, You control your thoughts because Our thoughts can be the birthplace of pride. So control your thoughts and tame your words. Let Your action tell Your story and not your word.
Thomas Merton said;
Pride makes Us artificial and humility makes us real and natural
Stay humble and You rumble to the top.
One last thing is that;
Pride goes before a fall, while humility comes before You rise.

Have a nice week, stay humble, stay loyal and rise to the top.
