The birth of a new baby's always heralded with a cry from the baby, but joy from the family and well- wishers. Why are we happy while the new baby comes out crying? Nearly everyone knows the cause of the happiness. But why does the baby come crying? This is the $64,000 question that we all seem to delight. Rather, we seem to take delight in the baby’s sadness.
Most times, I wonder deep within my mind’s depths about this scenario. Why the weeping? What is the cry about? What must be responsible for making the innocent little infant start of its life with a cry? “JAMB question.” In the quest for answers to this easily overlooked, but critical question, I cannot but ask another critical question: what is life all about?
The baby cries as it pokes out its head into this world because it comes out with the same question – what is life all about? – But could not find immediate answers to this question. The new comer realizes it is in the journey of life and confused on how precisely to navigate in our confused world. So the question lingers, “what is life all about?”
Today, many people (even the gown ups) are still unable to find answers to this destination-revealing question. What is life about? Pause and ponder. Try to answer the question; I realized there is a need to ascertain 2 things;
1. Who you are
2. Why you are
