Having rich parents is a great thing; having well-to-do people as uncles and aunties is also wonderful. It sure helps in someone's achieving of destiny. Yet no matter how much they may have, it is good to understand that "Nke anyi bu nke anyi, nke mu bu nke mu" ...Our own is our own, my own is my own. It is good to have an identity, something that defines us. To fight that fight that you must fight for yourself, a strong will is important. An identity is Something that tells your story, what you are into. Having an identity is something every young person must fight to have.
God designed us all in such a way that our beautiful diversities will help beautify our world like a coat of many colours.
Those who have no identity are quickly lost in the crowd. The sons of Sceva went to deliver someone who was possessed by an evil spirit with the name of Jesus and they did not have any identity or authority to do so and did not even know the Jesus they were talking about. Then came the bombshell,"Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?" (Acts 19:15)
Dear friend, be known for something, don't sit on the fence. Don't allow government's inactivity to weaken your morale or your quest to have an identity and don't allow your parents' affluence to make you sit back and do nothing. I remember this line in a song sang many years ago by Whitney Houston where she said, "I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadow. It doesn't matter how people see you, what matters most is how you see yourself.
I end with this admonition, Dare to dream again, you can be different, you can find a unique identity today.
I love you, Stay on top of your game!
