Food for Thought: Think About it. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Thinking face" aria-label="Emoji: Thinking face">

Somewhere right now, a mother is seriously disturbed about how to get a loan to finance the wedding dinner of her daughter at Meena event centre even though her cumulative family income is just N120 000 monthly.
Somewhere last week, a husband of 2 and a father of 7 children who live in a rented apartment took a loan to buy a car he& #39;ll only use for non-commercial purposes.
A few months back, a young man used his school fees to buy an iPhone 11, while his friend stole a laptop to buy the latest Samsung galaxy phone.
Just yesterday, a young female medical student lied to her poor old man to send her N30 000 for stethoscope (which she still doesn& #39;t have) and used it to buy a designer shoe & bag to & #39;slay& #39; in a friend& #39;s upcoming birthday party.
Somewhere today, a girlfriend is threatening to end a relationship because her betrothed - an artisan who has been affected by the #COVID19 lockdown - has failed to bring kayan shan ruwa and kayan Sallah.
Some years back, I was told of a lady who nearly committed suicide out of embarrassment because a guy asked for her BB chat pin and she only had a Nokia C2.
Still, on the same street (Twitter), I learned that people borrow friends& #39; phones and go to nice public buildings & friends& #39; houses to take portrait pictures to quench the thirst of their virtual followers.

********
See the thing is life is dynamic and things that really matter today will be laughed at a few years later. So don& #39;t kill yourself over anything in this world.

Just like #Nokia & #Blackberry, a few days from now #iPhone11 will also cease to be a luxury. A few years from now, the next generation will laugh at the sort of Benz & Ferrari we so much crave and die for just as we laughed at the Beetles & Peugeot 504 that our parents used.
ADVICE

So dear young man/woman, as you embark on this journey of life, let me give you some advice:
Get your priorities right!

Know the difference between need and want.

Be prepared to sacrifice immediate & temporary gratifications for long-term benefits.

Be humble! Be simple!

Don& #39;t be materialistic.

Seek for God& #39;s guidance and blessings.
In dai ka dauki rayuwa da sauki, to lallai kaci babban jarrabawa, zaka samu rayuwa da sauki kuma ka rabauta, in sha Allah.
