YOU THINK SEY YOU WISE
It's said that pride comes before a fall. Who has counted on their wealth and lived forever? Who has counted on their influence and seen tomorrow before it was ? Who has fallen off the earth surface because they were too heavy? None?!
Can you sleep comfortably in two or more rooms at a time? How much water can you drink from the ocean to make the ocean dry up? Can your ego scratch your back? No?!
For all your labour and all you have garnered for yourself to consume, can you assure yourself to be alive or even healthy to enjoy it? Or can you assure yourself that no one will take it from you? What is your security? What is your stronghold? What is your assurance? Really, what?
With this mount of questions, all I am saying is, "Be humble, and enjoy every bit of your life with a heart of thanksgiving.".

My Transformation
MY TRANSFORMATION Do you know how hard it is to walk away from all you've known to be? Maybe?! No one walks without a fight. What we've always known are the slavemasters while our fears and ego are the slavedrivers. Many of us have been drowning in our fears and ego for decades now; not one nor two, a couple more decades, the reason why many wake up in their 30s and realise life has passed them by.
