Two days ago, I went to work at Mercy Land, Port Harcourt. And after I was done with the job, I was paid a little cash, and I started leaving for home. Just before the east-west road where I can board a taxi to my base, which is at Uniport environment, I met a group of adults begging. There are about 6-7 of them, ladies included.
It was one of them that stopped me, and the way he approached, I thought they were doing evangelism in the streets. He now said Please, I want to talk to you and I said, " I'm all ears. He started by saying he wanted to ask me for a small favour, I said Alright, if it's something I can do, then why not? All in my thoughts, he would ask for a few of my time so he can share the gospel of Jesus Christ with me.
But guess what? He started telling me that he and his colleagues have not eaten since morning, and they have been walking around and even getting thirsty and they needed to get water and drink but they don't have any money with them, he wants to seek a favour from me if I can help them with a little money so they can eat. I looked at him, a mature, well-grown-up adult, and I looked at his colleagues, and all of them are the same.
And I asked him, Do they stay around this environment? And he said No, I then asked again, Then what did you come here to do and he said They are selling products, and they haven't made any sales yet. It now dawned on me that these are Neo-life kind of related people. I know they don't like to hear the truth at all because I have encountered a lot of them in the past.
I told him bro, let me tell you what you don't want to hear, don't allow any company to limit your potential as a vibrant youth and forcefully turn you into a street beggar. You aren't a lazy person, you're a hardworking person, and the hard work I'm seeing in you, if you channel that in the right way, you will never find yourself begging in the streets.
I know you don't want to hear this bitter truth, but for the fact that you sell a product and you met me, instead of you to advertise the product you're selling, and tell me how the product will be of a help or meet a particular need for me and why I need to buy it, but you're here begging me of money. That completely shows that your products don't solve any problem in the marketplace. Your products don't meet people's needs, and they're not in demand in the marketplace. Why then are you wasting your life on this?
Imagine the long kilometres of trekking on an empty stomach in an unknown environment? I told him, you're an adult, you should be able to identify a good opportunity and a waste of time. How do you even convince yourself against this reality and forcefully accept being a street beggar? I told him after so many encounters with people like you, I have made up my mind never to take you guys seriously but I am going to help you with what I can because I am a member of Gateway International Church and this is our month of random out of kindness, and I'd be showing you kindness for that reason only.
I took about 30% of my payment and gave it to them and they left. It's not up to a 1-minute walk, and another set of beggars stopped me again, the same category of people. I didn't even waste my time; I just told them I have given their colleagues what I have, and I'm not giving out any shishi even if they mistakenly swallow a shovel now now before me. They were like, Why is everyone saying they have given to their colleagues? I was like What do you expect when you willingly accept being a street beggar?
Personally, once you fall into those categories of people, my heart of kindness towards you is gone, and I will never take you seriously in life.
