While sum inherit wealth, some inherit riches.
It's somehow a matter of choice & today here I am with a pencil n &a piece of paper trying to share the wealth I extracted in the length of my health & being
Drew inspiration from many leaders but never idolized any.
I listened as lessons were taught &never allowed my thoughts to flow far from reality as I thought I was bright but I didn't have the insight to life until the light shined bright.
Then the QUEST for KNOWLEDGE BEGAN
Like a mine worker, extracting knowledge was hard labour & I couldn't depend on my neigbour.
Life was never easy as it is 2day.
I laid my head against my pillow as I visualize ways to keep up with my ever changing personalities.
I viewed my life as an act, everyone knew me.
I knew them but not as they knew me.
Loud shouts, hugs n kisses are thrown &blown when I come.
I yielded my greed to serve those in need.
Lazy at times, but praises kept coming for most of my deeds & indeed I served people
But in my quest for knowledge, I learnt that it takes more than one good deed to redeem a lifetime of failure & misery
At the end of the day, it is important to get knowledge & insight.
Set yourself alight wit goals & be the bright star shining in people's hearts.
Until the day come when you have to meet your maker.
Remember to always serve to the best of your ability & live your life to the fullest wit content keeping in mind that you shall be blameless when HE comes
Finally strive not to starve your mind & deprive it of knowledge
