It started long ago with the Creator and one of His creations. Neglecting of what one have did not start today. It started way back, and  has since then remained the same till today but with some differences. between fellow creations.


 It was said that when God created the earth and wanted dominion over the humans He created for better directions and good governance, that one of the angels He created and endowed with much abilities and beauties came up and had God's loving purposes for His creations thwarted, and that has over the centuries kept things moving just the way it has been, wrongly.

 The same issue of sovereignty have kept men for ages at each others throats, who are you and what I am.

A person would spend years with sleepless nights and some hurdles to get something into existence and peradventure, when whatever it is tends to be getting shape, he then starts looking for more hands to join him to have his inventions made available in some larger quantities for the benefits of others who would be beneficiaries of his products by patronizing him.

Then among those ones he called in to be his associates in the business, they, he would have placed in various managerial positions and few he would place above others in the organization while he chooses one or more staffs to be his closer associates depending on who they are or what their qualifications is. Then as time wears on into the business, so many other things will ensue as well.

When the founder begins to enjoy the benefits of his years of hard works and starts helping those that are working with him by giving them their own due shares of what they agreed on, as time go on, it won't be long before some of the staffs start looking for pay raise and promotions, which are not bad itself.

But what becomes bad is when those that were placed closer to the CEO starts eying his position unduly. Whenever they began showing disdain for the privileges they are given, so many things too will start going disorderly leading to ungratefulness among them and that in turn makes them to loose their envied positions in the company. Some of them would take a step further to show or try to prove to the boss that they too has known what he knew and may go ahead to start their own without knowing that what they are seeing is not an overnight achievement; and by the time they become aware of this, so many other things would have gone terribly wrong with them because they have lost the privilege of working with an established company and are highly shortsighted on what it takes to bring a firm like the one they took for granted to life.

When that becomes their ordeal, instead of humbly returning to their original boss who has shown them that life is to be lived just as it was originally created and meant to be, -to be lived and touch others positively with the goods from it, they won't do that but instead, will resort to blackmailing the individual who exposed them to the real life as it were. And since that is not going to take them anywhere, they will remain there and have their lives in mediocre.

This happen in all areas of life, ranging from the gate man you have at your house to the maid who you employed to do house works for you.

It's either your position as the landlord is being envied or your husband is being cornered for a selfish attentions.

It is in the offices too and virtually every where but in all, very few, l mean so little are by the corner doing all they possibly could to expose these as wrong ways of doing things.

Are you one of the few? It pays to be because majority are not always right after all.
 But in all,Prideful approach to life is the surest way to hit the rock.
