I vividly Recall the story of a man who
became
popular
for engaging in money rituals just to buy
the 80's
edition
of the Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy
that car for
50k today. Some other guy brutally
murdered his
brother
( whom their father gave cash 2 travel 4
the
purpose of
re- stocking their warehouse), just'cos he
wanted to
acquire the rave of the moment -
Pathfinder Jeep. That
same vehicle is now better described as a
coffin.
I Remember as a kid, my whole street
gathered to
watch
a truck deliver a very large satellite dish
to my
neighbour's house. Today a dish one
tenth that size delivers 5 times the value
and is in almost every
student's room. What about the
Volkswagen
Santana,
Mercedes Benz V boot, 505Evolution,
Toyota Crown,
all
overtaken by latest models of Camry,
Honda, Bugatti,
Bentley, X6, Acura and Infinity.... Vanity!
Some
ladies left
their true loves cos some rich guy then
persuaded
them
with a Benz 190, which turned out to be
the only car they ever owned till date.
They found out too late
that
true love is invaluable. A friend declared
drinks
because
he launched the Nokia Communicator for
over
hundred grand in 2002. Today that phone
would embarrass
the
owner and is a joke compared to the low
cost and
everyday phones. What about the MTN
SIM card that
many people went extra miles before
they bought
for over 30k, today you will not buy it at
N100 because all
networks are begging people to even take
it for
free.
People are still making the most horrific
sacrifices
over
'vanity' and make enemies over worthless
material things. What can I Say?
Look back at that one thing you want to
kill or die for
today and see what becomes of it
tomorrow. There
is
absolutely nothing you can't achieve.
All you need is a little time and PATIENCE
and you would
thank God without regrets. There is
actually nothing
in
this world that is worth going to Hell for,
ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING!
Meditate on this.

Word!
