Dear Young Person
Dear Young person,
By Daniel Odiwe
Can I share with you some truth coated in wisdom?
Your Life is not defined by what you have or what you don’t have.
Here’s a story from the lips of the wisest man that ever lived.
The farm of a certain rich man produced a terrific crop. He talked to himself: ‘What can I do? My barn isn’t big enough for this harvest.’
Then he said, ‘Here’s what I’ll do: I’ll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I’ll gather in all my grain and goods, and I’ll say to myself, Self, you’ve done well! You’ve got it made and can now retire. Take it easy and have the time of your life!’
“Just then God showed up and said, ‘Fool! Tonight you die. And your barnful of goods—who gets it?’
That’s what happens when you fill your life with Self and not with God.
Dear Young person, I’m not done yet.
Greed has put so many people in trouble and destroyed most. Never be in a haste to make it in life.
Remember your life is not defined by what you have or what you don’t have.
You see that food that was placed before you, don’t fuss about it. Eat it with Joy.
Young lady, I know the clothes in your closet are out of fashion. I know! No clothing’s or fashion trend can define your person. You are worth more than that.
Someone once said the the content beautifies the container. So true! What lies on the inside of you is too beautiful to be compared to what fashion can give to you.
There is far more to your life than the food you put in your stomach. Far more to your outer appearance than the clothes you hang on your body.
Dear Young person,
You are not in competition with anyone. You have heard this before and again I say it to you, You are your own competition. Only strive to be the better version of you everyday.
My friend, run away from wrong and bad companion. Remember if sinners entice you, do not consent.
You came to this life alone and you will stand before the maker alone.
What will you present to him that you did with your life?
This is why you must not allow greediness, selfishness and the crave to make it quick blind you from holding on to values of making positive impact to your world.
Do not be materialistic driven. Be solution driven. Be driven by values. Be drive by impact.
Tomorrow I will share with you some secrets on IMMORTALISING YOUR NAME ON EARTH
