The world we are living today is full of painful words against one and other but one thing we fail to realise is that we are not the future holder for anyone, including ourselves but today we keep trying to destroy people future.
A young man was employed in one company this young man was so hardworking, no matter how hard that work is he can give his best to see it come out successful at first his boss was so happy with him.
They keep working hand and clove people like him so much for his hard work, the guy focus and believe that through his hard work he will surely make it, he takes it to be the begging of his achievement.
One day an opportunity came up for scholarship to study overseas, this young man was the right person need to apply for this scholarship, everyone was so happy for him and ask him to go for it, he was so happy, smile all over his face.
He decides to apply for the scholarship, he keeps working hard, more hardworking then before, he himself was so happy with the way he works for the company.
A few months later the list for the scholarship interview came out, the young man had about that and ran to check for his name when going all eyes on him, but he thought people were sneering at him because he is going to be the choosing one.
Finally, when he reached there he was disappointed with what he saw on the notice board, he run with a cry to his boss and told him about what he saw, his boss said, he was the recommend the person they choose for the scholarship.
He was shocked and ask him why! the way he replied, nearly kills the faith of this young man by saying that the guy will never make it in life, the young man is already a failure and says to the young man, rich people are born with a silver spoon, not with a rubber spoon like you, live to your level.
He replies to his boss by saying I was not born with a silver spoon but that doesn't make to become a failure in life, through my hard work I am going to become successful one day no matter how long it takes to achieve my goal.
He finally thank his boss for the words he said to him and said boss your word is motivation to me, you make me no who really I am and I am going to work to that starting from now.
The boss was surprised by the young guy, thought the guy will live after saying all that to him, the young man lives and starts working very hard like never before just to prove his boss wrong about how he thinks about poor people.
A week to go for the guys to go for the interview the CEO for the company came in disguise form, he was observing every worker he as for the guy that has been shortlisting for the interview he was no were to be seen, the guy was not even work in the company.
The CEO comes to know about the young man and offer him the opportunity to go and study, he says goodbye to every worker including his boss, his fellow worker wish him well in his studies.
After five years of studies, the CEO was pleased with his academic performance, he asks him to go and head the company as the general manager(GM) he was short of words and say thank you, sir. He told the young man he owns the future success of the company.
He was pleased to go home again and work with friends when his former boss had about is coming he was shocked, think the end for him in the company is near, stress all over him for a word he said five years ago.
Finally, he came back and take over as the (GM), he went straight off to his former with a smiling face and say thank you, boss, for everything and ask him to work ask one and never judge or say a hurtful word to someone or try to destroy his future.
Because words can never be forgotten especially the hurtful ones, boss apologise and promise to work as one, to everyone in the company.
Proverbs 15:1
A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
James 1:26
If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worthless.
Ephesians 4:29
Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.
Let be mindful of the things we say to people if you can't help don't destroy and know one thing if you help someone, that person will surely help you tomorrow directly or indirectly. Where you are today someone helps you to be there also.
