All great men have left their
“footprints on the sands of time”. This has been done because they all led lies
that contributed something positive and negative to society. That is why they
ate still remembered with awe and affection; they continue to inspire generation
to exact themselves in their chosen field of endeavour. Sometimes their
personalities and deed appear much larger than life; they become legends in
their lifetime
On one hand , there are millions of men and women trying to eke out a meagre
existence for themselves and , on the other hand , there are other enjoying
untold wealth and luxuries without any thought for their neighbors, leave alone
the society , the nation or the world. These people are the ones who lead
useless lives. They are born bred and die like worms. Their life spam is short
not in terms of years but in terms of the memories contrasted with them, people
they leave behind. Contrasted with them, people who strive to make a mark in
life are remembered long after they die.
We must all realize that we have been entrusted by the ALMIGHTY withy something
concrete to achieve in our lives. Each one of us has been equipped with unique
abilities and sensabilities. the need is to realize them and exploit our
potential to the full.
According to James Mason:” the joy o living comes from limmersion in something
that we know is bigger, better, more enduring and worthier than we are”. Life
therefore is not only a struggle for survival of the fittest that would
tantamount to an animal existence.
