The purpose

By Solomon Agada

The essence of existence is to live a purposeful life.

Discovery of one’s purpose is a virtual necessity towards defining one’s Identity.

In life, everywhere may look alike and seems to be where one is headed. But with the help of continents names, country names, states identity, street name and house addresses makes locating a destination very accessible.

Until you know your worth and core value in life, you’ll wallow in the shadow of vagabondism (though the purpose of a vagabond is to serve as an example to the definition of what a vagabond is).

The 3 types of purpose using the ladder analogy.

1. The ladder setter/holder: This person serves the purpose of setting and ensuring that the the ladder is set and safe for use without causing fear or harm to the user.
2. The ladder: This equipment is a vital tool when an height is needed to be reached for work.
3. The climber: This is the individual who needs to work at a certain level of height, but can’t get there without the aid of an elevator.

In life, you may be serving as one or two among these three.
Any of these three can’t make the job to be done independently but collectively.
Synergy, togetherness, cooperation, unity are the mechanical fuel towards achieving progress in life as an individual, a family, community, Nation, and the world at large.

When any of these three gets hurt, damaged or week and not properly attended to, it will cause a great setback to the process which may truncate the purpose of the others and suffocate the actualization of the work.

And in Nigeria, the WAZOBIA represent this ladder analogy, but due to sentiments, bias, hatred and greed we live in a country with God given resources yet no full actualization nor account for it.
