3. Life After the Crisis

 

 

All seems about money! Projects shelved, people laid off, children pulled out of schools. People flying away overnight back home with no money, no jobs. It’s a laugh.

What a handful of greedy people of this world can shake it up. Why only 10% of this world are billionaires and trillionaires. People we thought we could look up; to respect and perhaps some had become role models for a lot of us both the young and not so young adults.

Today, these 10% of whom I would call greedy bees could break open and tear the world into shreds.

Families been torn apart, left separated. Children forced to stay away from fathers who have decided to move to avenues to fund the basics. Lovers who were to meet, and start life remain as they were.

Life has become reckless and left ruined. Peace which seems like a marathon, love that seems like a huge 900mts tall like the Burj Fantasy. What a laugh!

Let’s all laugh and really laugh loud. Shed all the hurt and let the tears drain away the negatives. Let’s take the stride and move again. Like the French emperor who lost several times and had to regain strength for the cause of freedom.

Today, each one of us is the French emperor. Time to wake up and desire freedom.

Freedom from hurt, freedom from being ruled by others, freedom from living on sheer means.

Time that we said, we are tired. Tired of being dependent.

Let’s start finding financial freedom! Perhaps the only way we can reunite the lost souls, the lost families, the lost lovers.

Let’s empower ourselves and stop being lazy anymore. Let’s make ourselves so strong that no bunch of these greedy Bee’s can desire to turn the scales of life of the entire world.

What greed can do? Perhaps somewhere we have been responsible too.

Always thought, we are going to keep that job forever. Never bothered to do our jobs well, increase our productivity or add value beyond expectations.

We all lived in our comfort zone. Outrageously made excuses on delays. Wasted energies, wasted wealth. When is it that we are going to realize that somewhere each one of us has been responsible

 

Group-ism, Mafia’s at work, racism. Trying to pull each other down. Disrespected nationalities. Never worked together as a team and helped each other do our jobs better.

Die hard desire to succeed and yet kept kicking others who asked for help. Never thought that we need help too. All those ambitious people who knew the shortest way to succeed was to get others out of the way and make big salaries. Today they stand at a loss.

It’s time we all thought together, realized a few basics of living together in a society, whether it’s a society at home, work, a country or world at large. Time that we realized that united we stand.

Corporate governance is well asked for but what about personal governance. Who is going to tell us that other than our self realization?

How many of us realize that both knowledge and wealth only grows with sharing? And how many of us do that?

What about gratitude and love and all the goodness that only will attract bigger faith?

Who is going to teach us that?

We call ourselves self reliant as we are not beast but human beings who can think and desire. Guess Time had to play its strongest strike. A slap on the face and being stumped on the nose. Amnesia!

Are we going to awaken, realize and change after all?
