Important Lesson From Yahooze!
When the Yahooze song was released by Olu Maintain, I was part of those that despise the song because of what it represents. Though so many interpretations have been given to the song, my own personal view is that the song is glorifying a social ill that needs to be condemned by all and sundry.
Soma days to Christmas, I visited a friend and the video was playing on the television screen and I decided for the first time to pay attention to the song and the lyrics. Don’t get me wrong, I am a Yoruba guy and the song was in Yoruba as well, so I understood everything the guy was saying but I decided to pay closer attention that particular day.
After listening for a while, I discovered something unique in the song and that was exciting. Before sharing my discovery, let me quote a part of the song that intrigued me:
“Awon kan waye wa gbowo,
Awon kan waye was sise,
Awon kan…”
For those that do not understand Yoruba, let me try and translate it to the best of my understanding:
“Some came into the world to make money,
Some came into the world to work…”
What discovery did I then make from these lines? DISCOVERY OF PURPOSE! The truth is that a lot of people have purposed in their heart to do a lot of things, whether evil or good. Taking the Yahoo guys as an example, all they live for is to look for a “maga” to dupe. Though a lot of people detest their actions, but they are living for something.
I have seen so many people talk negatively about this act and you may be one of those people. My question is what are you, as a person, living for? What is your own purpose on this earth? What have you come to pursue on this earth?
Discovering the reason you are here will help transform your life in numerous ways. It will give you a peace of mind knowing fully well that you are on your way to achieving something meaningful in life.
Like one of my mentor said, this purpose is SERIOUS business! You should be concerned about discovering why you are living if you have not discovered it. As I have always maintained, God NEVER creates a lackey or a purposeless being, so it is your duty to discover why you are here.
Do you want to live a stress-free life? Is it your desire to look into the future with so much excitement rather than with trepidation? Is it your desire to be insulated from the worries of common people? All you need do is DISCOVER YOUR PURPOSE! Spend time with God and ask Him to reveal why you are here to you.
After discovering what you are here for, begin to live it and you will witness a tremendous change in your life. Any time you listen to Yahooze, let it minister to you and allow the message to sink in.
