Old age is such a lonely and boring experience and the struggles of youth much more an excruciating experience than the former. In order to fence the gap between both necessary evils you will have to diversify your interest while young, concentrate on a specialty but maintain added interest.
When I titled this piece Stress management, I am referring to what could be done to harness those spent up energies and the emptiness that follows down the lane of retirement, when all activities
is winding up down to senescence, when my beautiful girl could hawk no more because the oils of beauty would have run dry, and my fraudulent brother could dupe no more because there would be little he could do with his energy and Mr. Wicked Man could hardly perform his racist and hating duties because like it all goes, All roses must wrap up while the sun sets.
Reason is you'll need to make up for a large vacuum that is going to be left in your heart for the life you have lived behind and one of the best ways to do that is to Keep
helping people and sharing. Learning to love now ever than before.
We hardly think age is setting on in until one day, we take a closer look at the
mirror and there is that one strand of a hair we're going to pull off or a shrinking
along the neck region but don't let that bother you...This is the reality you have been blind at while the roses blossom...Calm down, the body is shackled by stress but the mind is ever growing young.
This is the reason why you're going to diversify your interest while your roses blossom young people,
because life is too difficult both now and in the evening and too precious to plunge into an abyss of despair with nothing to fall
back on...activity keeps the mind young and healthy once it tends towards the progressive.
The 'NOW' is in your youthfulness, while you got all the energy to dupe, cheat, hop around,
push drugs, hurt innocent girls, use them and dump them, tell lies every seconds at any slightest opportunity
and the 'EVENING' is when you'll cry pain, when all the pains you have inflicted on people will hunt you,
when you'll sing 'I have seen them before' When vanity will plague you, when you'll live in your own world.
The difference between both activities is; One is active and blind while the other
is wide-eye opened with no activity...It is called Pay Day! And the money is spent in the grave!
Physical Stress and stress of the mind kills a man or a woman One year before his utter annihilation.
Most miserable people I know at age 21 didn't know what to do with their interest.
The truth is when you attempt to get ahead at the expense of others irrespective of how they feel or take advantage of
other's weakness, you will be resisted every of the way yet when you seek to get ahead by creating
a value for others the world will happily push you forward.
Rise above the crowd and genuinely seek ways to bring the crowd along, it is a much more effective strategy than looking for ways to push everyone else down...There is only so much you can possibly take away from others, yet there is no limit to what you can create for yourself and the world around you.
Those who win big can't do it by creating losers, Infact those who win big do it by
creating and helping other winners, those who win big in the race and game of life do it not by fighting what's already there but by creating something that had never existed.
Great minds knows that the way to true happiness and fulfillment is to create as much value as possible for as many other people as possible and that you can influence right now.
One of the greatest ideas that has kept many religious movement thriving despite severe criticism and betrayal is that they know how best to manage their followers irrespective of scathing pressures and persecutions from the society; Every follower is as important and useful as the founder and where such love abound, it is almost impossible to break away or renegade.
An average mind is already trapped by a stint of an ambition at conception, the idea to cry or frown when mistreated, even at senescence, the absence of activity, an activity laden with love, care and concern for others induces stress, it could be society motivated stress or self imposed when you unfortunately get into conflict with others at every minor disagreement:
"Wise King Solomon did said; anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, either negative
or anxiety lacking values...even if we are not equal, I believe we should learn to complement
others, either white or black, rich or poor, believer and infidel, tell each other good words,
share heart warming messages to one another, disconnect our heart and energy from this one blind
way of thinking negative about others and an arrogant attitude leading to nowhere,
create happiness as much as within our capacity, Let's learn to accommodate one another in love and care,
the energy you spent loving people today certainly will usher you into a stress free tomorrow, and we all know how long tomorrow is.
And besides, sometimes we could be contributing in making our world a better place for all humanity, white or black, rich or poor, believers and infidels because we would have learn how to manage the chief cause
of all stress being the desire to impress others and lord our ego over others.
And May God help us to do just that.
