GOOD AND EVIL

Good and Evil, virtue and vice, these are two unforseen forces that has contended wit each other overtime to determine the fate of our universe since the inception of man. Questionswhich arises to justify and ascertain how theseforces has affected the life of man would be, ofthese two forces which is more prevalent?. Which has seemingly overwhelmed the conditions in which our modern society is built on?.which has always had a foremost position in shaping the precepts of different stages of Civilization?.
It is no surprise to see that a greater result would emerge in place for Evil if a vote was casted respectively for these two forces. To the greater denizens of our society, Evil is seen as a malignant force that has visibly shaken the life and Existence of Mankind.

This greater attestation to evil has been made manifest in the unseemingly events that has pillaged and ravaged the habitat
of Man. Evil breed such elements as wickedness, hatred, revenge, despair, malice in the heart of Men. For example, a constant agitation of war between nations has led to outcomes that even the human mind cannot comprehend. Life are lost unnecessarily between the warring factions,Men are butchered as if in abbatoir, Women and young girls are subjected to the most inhuman treatment that one can conceive not to mention the emotional and physchological tussle that they have to suffer,children are thorn away from their families,some of them are sold into slavery or subjected to abuses of all manners,the seed of Hatred and Revenge is sown in the heart of those in the receiving end of the War.

Evil seems to spread its deadly fangs far beyond what one could envisage, for even our day to day activities is shrouded and gloried in Evil. Our eyes and ears has become accustomed of news front he smaller activities of a pilferer and a pick-pocket to the greater nefarious ones perpetrated by hired-killers, assassins, armed robbers, kidnappers, militants, rebels and even the activities of the government of a nation for which those seated in power has decided to rob the people filling their pockets with the wealth of the nation thereby reducing its citizens to a state of abject penury. All these put together has made Evil seem the prevalent Force.

One may argue,even when evil seem to have all curried to its domain,does it then put good out of the question or out of consideration? Even when
Evil seems to come with overwhelming force that hits hard on the face of Society does it mean that good has been totally obliterated?. Certainly not for unlike Evil,Good is an Enigmatic force that put the Vices of Evil into check. One may say that good moves with the pace of a tortoise nevertheless, like the same tortoise it moves steadily always sure to arrive at its destination. Good has a beauty that is indescribable as it comes with such elements as happiness, Love, joy, hope and relief putting serenity and smile in the heart of Men in the face of Evil. Evil tries to be Evil because it wants to prove to be Evil. The same cannot be said of Good as it does not seek to prove itself rather its aim is to subject and suppress Evil to the Lowest degrading order. Evil may Glory in its Tyranny but good will always come to snatch it at the end.

Deep down in our heart we always wish to see good outshine the elements of Evil,this is the Untainted beauty of Good for which Evil is Jealous of,it knows it will never be like good. A rather Compelling Truth about these two forces is that both will always contend which other for how long we may never Know. To you reading this now, what is your thought of Evil and of good? Which do you see standing out in their endless battle?.

Is it GOOD or is it EVIL?

THE MIND OF A CHILD

THE MIND OF A CHILD....

I flagged down a bike,he stopped. After arriving at a reasonable price comfortable for both of us,an agreement was reached and I boarded the bike. Arriving at the park, I handed him the money which I had earlier told him I have on me,which he now rejected after sizing the money with his eyes and noticed I was having another currency of the same value but of a neater appearance on me. Being not ready to create a scene with that, I agreed to give him the other one and he handed me my change and left with his bike. After a while,I was seated in the vehicle and beside me was a heavily built woman with a 6-year old girl.

As we set off on our journey, some minutes into the journey, I heard this woman mutter to herself. 'Hoooooho! I eventually forgot the money I planned to use to buy this thing.' The little girl answered almost immediately, 'How much is what you want to buy maybe I can add mine to the money with you to complete it?'

The woman's response depicted that her thinking was clearly in apposition to her daughter's. She said 'How much do you think you have that you want to add?' 'N20' was her quick response. I did an invisible giggling, because I knew it was way of what the woman was thinking. The woman simply hissed.

As we progressed in the journey, I replayed the whole scenario in my head, and a thought came to me, 'if I were to be in the little girl's shoes,would I even offer to help even with such a meagre sum?' That's how a child thinks different from the grown up folks, children think freely,without any intention of hurting anyone's ego.
How many of us would be ready to offer help. Do you see how that little girl reasoned? That little amount she offered to help her mother with might seem little, but do you know that if she'd had more, she'd have equally raised that amount! Now,many people want to do something today,but they feel the idea is too small to do anything about, and as such,many great ideas had been buried,and remained as what they were- ideas. Many have opportunity of rendering a helping hand to someone today,but they feel,I'm not any better,maybe he should move a little bit further where he'd find someone else that may help. If you're in such a position today, change your mindset. Think deeper and do great things from humble beginnings.
Do something today,no matter how little, that your future self will be proud of. Start that small business today and watch it grow into a big one,and when you turn back in the nearest future, you'll smile to yourself and say 'I remember when we started, very small'.
