GLORY, FOR HONOUR OR DISHONOUR?

"The glory of young men is their strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head" _Proverb 20: 29
If indeed the strength of the youth is her glory,then to what application is this glory?
Is the strength of our mind directed towards positive,constructive thinking for national development and generational transformation? Or are we basically thinking mischief? Nelson Mandela started the fight against apartheid as a youth. Rev. Martin Luther King Jnr led the match for equal treatment as a young clergy. Most of the discoveries we enjoy today are products of the strength of young men.On the other hand,the kidnapping, pipeline vandalism, scams, terrorism and ritual killings are also products of the strength of youthful minds.
What about the strength of your lips?Are your words building or pulling down?Are you quick to like and share posts that insult and damage the image of our great nation and leaders?Are you one of those always at newspaper stands cursing and declaring doom without proffering solution?
Are you among them that cry about the untidiness of our streets and yet are quick to drop polymer sachet by the roadside  after drinking its content?
In that little corner of yours,what role are you playing?Are you contributing or destroying?
In our strength lies the glory of our lives,families and nation;let's apply our strength to honour.
The decadence is indeed much but together, our strength(be it mental,physical or spiritual) can bring the lost glory!
