WE SHOULD ALL VISIT THE ASYLUM; YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT?

A soul to uphold, a magnet to attract, a needle to thread, two legs to walk, two hands to work, one brain to think, a whole lot to invest, some leaders to strengthen, a country to behold, some citizens to appreciate. A little walk down through the heart of man can only do much more than just a stroll through a greedy life that thinks only about himself and feels that every other thing is insignificant.

They need to visit the asylum, yes! they do. The kids in the house that steal the meat from the mother's cooking pot, neglecting the fact that the pot of soup is meant for the whole family, and in a bit to satisfy their covetousness, they steal those meats not to quench hunger, but to have a better taste of what is meant for the whole family than other members.

A mother is the chief cook in a home, her affairs to oversee the home makes her feel that she has absolute power in most cases, and thus a means to eat better than others. In her coded room (kitchen), as she boils the meat and fish, a great chunk has been swallowed by her mouth, the plantain cannot be enough for the family, because mother has tasted more than enough. The meal looks lean not because better quantity was not cooked, but mother already ate her first round before the arrival of daddy. Mother's monthly allowance to cater for the needs of the family sometimes fizzle away, not because things are costly, but she has invested in gold, costume and body accessories business. An issue to trash on the table of the disciplinary committee and not the bin right? Just hold on.

My father, my father, the only car we have is not meant for the family, but only for you. If mother has to take us to school, public transport is the best option, if mother carries a whole lot of load, her stress to convey those to her destination is her cross not yours. The moment you enter the house, the TV remote control absolutely gets to be under your care as you change the channels without an apology, even though we are seen as too young to be apologised to, but we are still significant. The only thing we see on your food are four meats and 3 fishes, while we struggle to get a full piece of meat, and though we need it more than you do, but the tradition has crippled our mindset.

The natural resources, tax payers accumulation, and other financial gains of our country seem to be what is meant for all of us, but the last time I checked, a group tagged leaders that I appointed have gathered a larger part to some countries that the citizens do not even accord them because of their colour (racism). And we keep suffering like a dog that has no piece of meat, but goes back to feed on its poo. Has it ever occurred to you that after a man has spent all his money and he is in dare need, he searches those places where he kept all those he already spent if he could get a little sum of luck, but the bag is drained and what is next?

We all need to visit the asylum I repeat, because it all started from our homes. It is not the right of asylum which is sometimes called right of political asylum which a person persecuted by their own country may be protected by another sovereign authority, but an asylum meant for the insane or lunatic, an obsolete type of institution for housing those deemed insane. Let's take a vivid view at this scenerio, we are hungry, and a good samarithan gives us a bowl of rice, and I decide to scoop out a greater part, all of a sudden, I start to pour it in the sea, please am I sane? That is the case of greedy people. In their own bit to get their share, they cheat other people and the dividend of their cheat is wastage, so they need to visit the asylum because they have derailed from the right thinking path, and mentally, they are ill not to know that what is meant for all should be equally shared by all.
