By Aliyu Hussein Taye
We are too enmeshed and ensnarl with the luxury of life.
We refused to wake up to the reality of the emptiness and conceitedness of this life
We are too insensitive and infatuated with the worldly relevance and materials.
I asked, Of what importance are all this acquisition and accumulations of wealth?
This life and our existence are temporary
Our living and survival is very impermanent
What’s the need for rigidity and absurdity?
What’s the need for unruly attitude toward one another?
What’s the need for wickedness and mischievousness?
What’s the need for selfishly acquiring the wealth and sweat of your fellow men?
What’s the need of denying people their right?
What’s the need of gaining unlawful advantage over others?
What’s the need of manipulating and misrepresenting rule of laws?
What’s the need of living as if you are going to be here forever?
*You are going to leave everything behind…*
…Your children that you so treasured and see to be precious than other children
…Your investment that came to light because you improvrished the people that trusted you with their votes.
…Your mansions in different cities that are of no use to you and luxury cars that no one can dare touch
…Your beautiful wife/wives and husband
…Your position that made you see yourself as tin-god
…Your money in banks and cash hidden in your apartment
You will die and leave them behind.
You will not be buried with them.
6fit down the earth is your permanent residence
*Learn a useful lesson from your sleep…*
It is only when you wake up you remember your cars, mansions, cash and children.
As empty as you are when sleeping, that’s the reality of this temporary life.
Your sleep is the reality, because it is a replica of death.
Believe it or not…
Everything is a dream and you will wake up to the realization of this vanity of life and worldly possessions when you are in your grave…
Everything you are so serious accumulating with confidence is not going to be with you for long …
Temporary it is the world and it entirety.
Turn a new leaf and impact lives…
Change people’s story with your wealth and possession.
Be part of history with your contribution to humanity.
Humanity needs you.
With your purposeful contribution, our world can be better.
