Greetings!
I have a very funny and strange way of looking at life, especially with regards to the life lesson that "one must eat the bone first before eating the flesh," which suggests that one must suffer before achieving success. The idea is that if someone achieves success without suffering, they will not be able to manage that success. I don't buy into that, even though that's how life is happening to many of us.
I've seen people born with silver spoons who are living large in this world without facing many life challenges, or any life challenges at all. I know you may want to say it's a lie that everyone passes through challenges. Yes, no doubt about that. But the life problems most of these people born with silver spoons face are minor because they have money to solve everything....*even to the extent of using money to buy life. Hope you know that a poor man can die due to lack of finance to buy ordinary medicine?*🧐
So, if I had the opportunity to clear all life hurdles for my children so they wouldn't have to go through those hurdles, would I do it?
You should know my answer already. Of course, I would adopt that lifestyle for them without hesitation.
I haven't lived half of my life on this planet, and I've seen and faced life problems that were so painful that at times, I wished for the world to end so I could rest. Although those challenges opened my eyes to how to tackle subsequent life issues when they came, I wouldn't want my children to face that kind of pain at all. I don't want them to go through problems that would lead them to consider suicide as a way out. I want them to live life without any glitches at all. Let money be there to solve all their problems. In fact, let them not even think of anything as a problem or have their brains ransacking over one life issue or another.
Life is very short, and just like we see in movies, there are people born into rich families who grow old without facing major troubles. The only thing they call a problem is difficulty in deciding what to eat or what to wear. Yes, of course, there are people living like that on this planet, and all they worry about is how to eat good food and dress nicely.
In fact, as I write this, I am imagining my children experiencing this soft lifestyle where they don't need to go through the furnace of fire to be made. No, they'll learn, go to good schools, and acquire knowledge, especially about how to be professionals in their fields. And in the process of doing all this, they wouldn't need to run helter-skelter to pay fees like I did during my schooling, when I had to do menial hard jobs to raise money to feed and pay for fees.
Life can be this sweet for my children, and there's no crime or sin attached to that.
Thanks for reading.
