Manhood

What is to live in this life?
What are the worldly pleasures?
If they are enjoy;
How does one enjoy without  hardship ?
Nothing pleases a man more than succeeding in life
But nothing drives one to the edge,
Like knowing he got no-one to lean on
How do I put this ??
Lack money you loose friends 
Lack a loving wife depression kicks in
Lack a family that can help you,
Well I don’t need to answer that part 
People are dying young due to lack of the three items
But not even the family,government or even the religious institutions can help.
Why so?
Because all of them are driven by money and not love
We will continue to witness bloodshed in our marriages 
We will continue to praise single mothers for been brave
We will continue to condemn that single young man;
Drinking away his woes
Imagine lacking money,peace in your marriage and family support 
You are as good as dead
Whenever you wake up and someone just checks on you:
Thank God
If someone you call your life partner is really one:
Thank God 
If you got a family that got your shoulder anytime:
Thank God 
But if you got all three of the above;
Be humble and always pray regularly for the continuity of that bond
To those who got no desires or new year resolutions 
Due to the above mentioned ,
Then do not worry for God is for us all
Welcome and see the difference He will create in your life
