Money isn't the root of all evil. It's the love of money that I the root of all evils. It's that greed, the unholy desire to do anything, irrespective of the process, to accumulate wealth.
Money have been said to have a spirit. This because of the things that people do just to have money. People have killed, people have committed atrocities just so they can have money.
Now, so many people don't want to go through the right process to get money. They are ready to cut corners just so they could arrive on time.
This love for money is very evident where I live. I mean if there's one place right now on the earth where the love of money I prevalent, it should be the place where I stay. It's not just in my county, I mean the very local government where I reside.
You'll boys of seventeen driving cars their parents never dreamt they could ride and people hailing them and showing them all the attention they don't deserve. Yet, they don't mention how they manage to accumulate so much in so little time.
A friend of mine, whose parents are not so well to do happen to be living in a rented apartment. Few months ago, a boy in Ss2( that's like high school) paid for the entire compound which contains not just my friend's family but several others and told them to evacuate the building. This boy is no more than eighteen years and can hardly put together a string of good words. One now begins to wonder how he made his money.
There has been no time when covetousness prevails as the time we live in and my only hope is that people don't get carried away, at least those that matter to me.
Since these guys are the 'happening' guys, everyone wants to be like them and the rate of killings and immorality in thus place now is at an all time high. My heart weeps forth this generation!
