                 Being at Peace With All Men


By; Akiode Oyin Joshua

How can this be possible, to be at peace with all men? I can never accept that because its not possible.

Exactly the major problem our country is facing today, Truly, we all have different views on every thing we do, also we grew up in different areas and different backgrounds.

Here is a story, of a man and his son traveling with a donkey. When they reached a spot, people question them, how can both man and son be on a donkey, do they want to kill the donkey? The man jumps off the donkey and leaves this son riding on. Moving forward, they got to a spot, another set of people saw the man walking and his son on the donkey. People questioned him again, how can you be walking and your son will be sitting on the donkey? The man dropped him from the donkey and sat on it while his son walked along. When they moved forward to another spot, people saw them and questioned him, how can you be on a donkey while your son is walking, that is wickedness. At the end of the day the man dropped down from the donkey and walked along with his son, the donkey is free. On getting to their destination, the people said it looked crazy, how can a donkey be walking without anyone sitting on it?

It looks like there is no way you can please people, from this story, the man pleased everyone

The solution is not coming from the people but you.

A statement in a movie goes thus: THE HATE YOU GIVE LITTLE INFANTS FRUSTRATS EVERYBODY. The problem is about you, yourself, not on everybody. I strongly agree that we can be at peace with everybody.

What do we mean by the word "Peace"?
From the dictionary peace means the state of harmony. This can only be done in the heart that is our mind.

In conclusion, please people on what they want and if that is going to affect your personality, create distance with them and walk with the one that suits you
Note: Friendship is not a must but a choice.
