THE PREDICAMENT OF A YOUNG MAN

He has a lot of responsibilities to deal with in his family. He has a lot of responsibilities to himself. He is always held responsible for his actions and the actions of people under him. He has to be perfect in his ways even if perfection is a fiction. He struggles, hustles, hurries, runs, walks, squats, jumps and strolls just to get his tasks done. He has to meet family objectives, he surely wants to achieve personal goals and in the process has set standard for others.

He never turns deaf ears whenever he is called. He has to be wide awake even if he wants to sleep. He asks for forgiveness for sins he didn’t commit. He must pay for what another person mistakenly commits. The young man wants to impress the generality of people and ends up depressed. He wishes for things to fall in place at the snap of the fingers but reverse is the case; he has to work morning, afternoon and night even if the pain of yesterday’s labour still lingers.

The young man wants to be loved but the people see it as nothing but lust. He tries to get someone to understand but critics are the ones all around. He is faced with life-threatening challenges. He seeks for ways to solve them while he goes after every opening and opportunity. The young man wants to be recognised among peers, he likes to stand out in the midst of hundreds, he wants his voice to be heard out of the thousand voices present.

We should never underestimate the power of the visionary attribute of the young man because he is a young mind, bright mind, an active mind and most importantly he has a creative mind.

I am a young man trying to do big things and I want to dedicate this to all the wonderful, brave, diligent, hardworking and handsome young men all over the world. You are all leaders of tomorrow.

Thank You!
