A young boy was looking for advice about life and came to
his grandfather, an old Cherokee.
“Each one of us has two wolves inside us,” he said to the
boy.
“One is evil – he is always angry at everyone around him and
feels envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, guilt, resentment, inferiority,
lies, and false pride”
He continued, “The other wolf is good, he is in harmony and
feels joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, empathy,
generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
There is a constant fight going on between those two wolves.
And it’s often hard to live with this fight as each wolf tries to dominate our
spirits”.
This fight is going on inside you – and inside every other
person, too.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his
grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee smiled and replied, “The one you feed. Sometimes
we do mistake in life, not just because we are humans, we do mistake because we
take actions/ plains that we don’t properly plain of.
Those who speak of progression but are afraid of change are
self-repressed and therefore unable to reach any further than their eyes can
already see.
We do not get to choose how we start out in life. We do not
get to choose the day we are born or the family we are born into, what we are
named at birth, what country we are born in, and we do not get to choose our
ancestry. All these things are predetermined by a higher power. By the time you
are old enough to start making decisions for yourself; a lot of things in your
life are already in place. It’s important, therefore, that you focus on the
future, the only thing that you can change
Those who have no achievements of their own. They've made
nothing, created nothing, worked at nothing. They will leave no trace that they
ever existed. They have no legacy except for their names, which they did
nothing to earn, so time waits for no man.
I leave you with this quote “you may encounter many defeats,
but you most not be defeated”.....
Lets wake up to build a better Nigerian...
