150 Years From Now
150 years from now, none of us reading this post today will be alive.
70 percent to 100 percent of everything we are fighting over right now will be totally forgotten. Underline the word, ~TOTALLY~.
If we go back memory lane to 150 years before us, that will be 1872, none of those that carried the world on their heads then are alive today.
Almost all of us reading this will find it difficult to picture anybody's face of that era.
Pause for a while and imagine how some of them betrayed their relatives and friends, and sold them as slaves for a piece of mirror. Some killed family members and friends just for a piece of land or tubers of yam or cowries or for a pinch of salt.
Where is the yam, cowries, mirror, or salt that they were using to brag then now?
It may sound funny to us now, but that is how silly we humans are sometimes, especially when it comes to money, power or trying to be relevant.
I remember those days in our secondary schools, how some people fought and did so many unimaginable things just to have their names shortlisted among those to be made school Prefects. Ordinary school Prefects o!
Now, just how many years since we left secondary Schools, is there anyone amongst us in those schools again?
Certainly NONE.
Now, imagine what happens after 150 years?
Even when you claim the internet age will preserve your memory, take Michael Jackson as an example. Michael Jackson died in 2009, that was just 13 years ago.
Imagine the influence Michael Jackson had all over the world when he was alive. *Gosh...* He was like a god.
Now, how many young people of today remembers him with awe, that is if they even know him?
In 150 years to come, his name, when mentioned, will not ring any bell to a lot of people. This is even because he was popular.
Then, you can now imagine the majority of people who will never be known worldwide like him?
Let us take life easy, nobody will get out of this world alive...
The land you are fighting and ready to kill for, somebody left that land, the person was long dead, rotten, and forgotten.
That will also be your fate.
In 150 years to come, none of the vehicles or phones we are using today to brag will be relevant. Biko, take life easy!
Let love lead. Be genuinely happy for each other.
No malice, no backbiting. No jealousy. No comparison. It is not a competition. At the end of the day, we all have the same destiny in the grave. It is just a question of who gets there first, but surely we will all go there..
Think deep and change your philosophy about LIFE.
