Vanity by Nobody: 11:31am On Sep 09, 2015
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. A guy brutally murdered his brother, just because he wanted to acquire the rave of the moment - Pathfinder Jeep. That same vehicle is now better described as a coffin.... Vanity I remember as a kid, my whole street gathered at a neighbour's house to watch a"drama" shown on a "double-door black & white television". Today there is plasma television and its almost found in every student's room..... Vanity Some ladies left their true loves because 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..... Vanity What about Santana, Mercedes Benz V boot, 505 Evolution, Toyota Crown?... All overtaken by latest models of Camry, Honda, Bugatti, Bentley, X6, Acura and Infinity.... Vanity! A guy declared drinks because he launched the Nokia-3310 phone in 2002. Today that phone would embarrass the owner and is a joke compared to the low cost and everyday phones..... Vanity What about the MTN SIM card that many people went extra miles before they bought for over 30k, today you will not buy it anywhere because all networks are begging people to even take it for free.... Vanity 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. ... Take it easy! 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! TAKE IT EASY!

May GOD bless you bro, you are saying the fact if only our human nature could allow us to adhere on what you are trying to say, which is the truth, many actually have passed away trying to satisfy the flesh, may GOD help us.

What's vanity here. Is it the evolution of all these things you listed above that is vanity or what.


Don't think that way bro, depite i understood where you are driving to but those examples up there is not a match to advising people to take newly evolved material things easy if they can't affort it at the moment.
I knew of one poorest president that is still driving 1950s cars. Choice.
