Life Is A Privilege

I returned yesterday from Abuja to Ondo state where I am currently doing my nysc. It was a journey of 7 to 8 hours, it was indeed stressful but at the same time I was conscious of the fact that I arrived my destination very safe.

Along the road I saw a lot of accidents and the many reasons for those accidents includes human negligence and greediness of the government to build good roads. So being alive today is a privilege given to us and not really because of our carefulness!

Yea! Life is a privilege and not your right. In February this year, a young man who was coming for his convocation had an accident and died immediately. He never thought of death but death came calling him at his prime age of impact. Yea your life is an opportunity given to you and that opportunity must be greatly utilized.

My dad died three years ago without being sick. He suddenly complained of breathing problem; I was called from school to pray for him, I did but only to get the sad news after few hours that he has died.

My friend, you got to be grateful for the life you are living and also aim to making every moment of your life to count by affecting the lives of people around you for good and not evil. Stop living to please any one but rather to achieve goals and live a purposeful life.
