Never sell the sun to buy a candle
BY Kudzi Valerie Kirichi
It seems to be a parable sought of but the phrase is so
simple to explain and to understand. Its not rocket science after all
but simply what most of the people do in life. We trade the things that
would last us a lifetime for small things that a quick to vanish. We
tend to leave what matters most in our lives for that which is
temporary. They are those things that come in our lives and they require
us to give up some things that we already had. But is it that they will
last a lifetime or they will be soon wasted? People often neglet this
part of the story simply because they think that their world has been
made meaningful and content with the newly found fortune .
Dear, there is more to life than the newly found thing.
The sun is something or let's say an object that provides the whole
universe with daylight. It is there for as long as I wouldn't know. Then
the candle is a man-made wax that can provide light only for a small
sphere place and last for certain hours and melts down. Even the sun can
at a point melt the candle. This then proves that the sun takes
precedence over the candle. Then why would one sell the sun to buy a
candle. Why do we have to sacrifice a bigger and great thing so as to
buy that which is temporary and doesn't last.
In life they are some things that we do that would cost us. They are
things we trade our time, money, brain and hearts for. It all comes down
to that is it worthy it. If its not really worthy it then why not
leave it. They say " All that glitters is not gold" and that's the
truth ...that which will catch our sight, steal our hearts and touch our
souls it ain't like that it's all good and worth the trade. Mind what
you trade with, what you sell for.
Every thing
you do in life should profit you. Invest your time where you are
guaranteed a result ..sell the sun when you know the candle you want to
buy will last for eternity.
