One day there lived a poor man in a certain village his name was "JEEGE" So JEEGE wondered how do people become rich? he went to consult his friend "KEVIN" who was a christian.. KEVIN told his friend that if he wanted to become rich he should go to church and pray to GOD to make him Rich.... JEEGE went to church and prayed for a couple months telling GOD to make him the richest man in the village so that people can fear him...He continued to pray until he thought that GOD was not listening to his prayer..So JEEGE went to a JUJU Man "witchcraft man"and told him that he wanted to be a rich man..The JUJU man told him to bring a hen..JEEGE did exactly what the JUJU Man told him.. he brought the hen..and the JUJU man told him that if he wanted to be rich then he is going to make him rich..but he should follow the following simple instructions:HE SHOULD STARVE THE HEN FOR 5 CONSERVATIVE DAYS..I.E HE SHOULD NOT GIVE IT FOOD FOR FIVE DAYS..on the 5th day he should bring the Hen back to the JUJU man..
On the 5th day The JUJU Man told him that the number of corns the hen is going to eat is the number of days JEEGE Is going to live with the Riches...JEEGE was very happy because he thought that the hen is going to eat alot of the maize corns because it was hungry...when the JUJU Man threw the corns to the hen the hen just ate 3 corns and went away..The JUJU Man told JEEGE that he is going to stay with his riches for only 3 days...

There is a universal tendency in human being to look for ready made answers. Because we are sometime insecure and lack confidence in our ability to make good decisions, we often rely more on the experience of others than we do on our own. Because we are afraid of making mistakes, we look for some authority to show us or give us a formula.

COWARDISE
The world has no room for cowards , we must be ready to toil, suffer, to die. And yours is not less noble because no drums beats when you go out to your daily battle fields,as no crowds shouts when you return from your daily victory defeats.

THE REWARD OF SUFFERING
In- order to respond to the call to love God and our Neighbor as our-self, there are obstacles to be removed, gifts to be discovered limitations to be dealt with. Love warms and natures this process. But i belive that it is suffering that sets the process in motion. Rainer Maria Rilke sentiments" I love that dark hours of my being. Love in dreams is easy but real love is harsh and dreadfuf reality. one of my favourite myths is the story of Adriane. Her response to her pain can serve a message of life for us.
"When Thesus returns from Athens to Crete, he is given the message that he must pass through the labyrinth of the understanding to slay the minnotaur{a dreadful beast}Frightend by the prospect of this fearsome journey, he enlists the support of Adriane who aggres to hold a thread so that Thesus can both enter the complicated and threatening Labythinth and find his way out. In return for this favour, Thesus promises his friend, Adriadne, that he will take her with him from Crete.
