How do you measure greatness in a man?
"The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively."- Bob Marley.
The volume of wealth a man acquires has never been enough to measure his size or capacity as it affects humanity. Positivity in a man is what makes him have the strength and beauty to affect those who are around him.
How do you measure greatness in a man when everything about living points to an empty bin where money just seems to be the master to the master than it should be a slave to the master?
Do not seek to be a man who is all important in his own eyes and that of fools because he has material possessions that go from here to Timbuktu.
The fools world is easy to arrive at because, it takes no work to get there. You happen there by a silly unguarded choice of yours and whenever there is no understanding of what truly matters.
Let your greatness be so great that, it has its own unique ability to empower and effect positivity on every soul you come in contact with.
Money can buy everything these days, but, that may just be the best definition of stupidity known only to fools and those who have no idea what it means to impact a life.
Make your life about a duty to humanity that is not influenced by wealth or material possessions but by your untainted integrity and courage to put love in play and you will be the greatest that ever lived.
