THOSE WHO START A FIRE..............


    Those who start a fire are not the ones who necessarily put it out. One thing I know about most boys is that their rooms can look like a store, dirty clothes spread on the floor, cups, spoons, car dolls on the bed, books strewn all over the place.
 When Lisa was growing up, her brothers room used to earn her money at times. The boys would wait until their mum would start yelling for them to start blaming each other for messing up the room, then later on, they would clean it up, but they never did it alone, at times Lisa sisters  would be hired to do the job, then later on mum would come and give the boys a credit. 
    The boys used to wait until their mum got angry for them to act, and when she was angry, the house was never a nice place. So Lisa  knew that if she cleaned up the room earlier, the tension won't be there and everyone would be happy. And it was so. 
    We always wait until things get out of hand, and instead of coming up with solutions early, we first start pointing fingers at each other as the situation worsens. If I walk into a building and notice a bomb, my first reaction will be to alert others because if I don't I will also be affected by it. I can't see a bomb and then say that the experts will come and detect it and I walk into the building undisturbed.

    We were all born with a purpose and a common purpose God created us all to accomplish is to live the world a better place than we found it and not vice versa. I know it may be hard cleaning up after other people's mess but at times we also mess up and other people clean up after our mess. But don't go around cleaning after everyone's shit, clean only what you can for that which you can't don't concern yourself with it in any way.
