GATHER

GATHER

It is the default nature of every man to gather up stuffs for themselves, in fact man is never satisfied with what he has, no matter how much it is,he will continue to crave and seek for more. It is not odd, nor out of place to want more, or gather as much as we can gather, but the question is, what is the value and essence of what you are gathering?

Gathering is a necessity for continuous survival and relevance, but we need to be careful what we gather, for what you gather will determine how well you will survive and how relevant you will be. As much as the gathering of material wealth and possessions may be important, more important is the gathering, obtaining, and acquisition of immaterial wealth.

Knowledge, skills, understanding, are necessary and very important acquisitions for every human who would have an impact on others, and their society. These must be accumulated unrelentingly and at all cost, it must as a matter of fact be prioritized over material possessions. One can lose whatever one has gathered materially, but no one can take away your immaterial possessions, they are with you and for you for life.

In all, whatever we gather if it can not be used for the promotion of good living for ourselves and others, and the betterment of human lives in general, we have gathered, but in vain. Gathering for one's self is temporary gathering, but when you accumulate for others to benefit, you have gathered towards immortality. GATHER but in all thy gatherings, GATHER Wisely.
