One of my prime turning points in life occurred when I observed the pattern of my life and realized it was not different from that of an average unbeliever on the streets.
An average person I saw in my locality had this common trend: You are born; you attend nursery and primary school; you work hard to get admitted to a good secondary school and become the prisoner of that system; you experience the same thing when you get into a higher institution of learning; you graduate and start searching for a good job; you get a job and start thinking of getting married; you get married and start having children; you spend time training your children while meeting the demands of your work; you get old in the process and are due for retirement; …. One day, you die!
Although some people seem to have material things more than some as they go through this regular pattern, the truth is that apart from struggling to do all these things, there is no other real meaning to their lives. Please don’t let that happen to you.
