MANGO


I don't really like mango as a fruit, but I have friends who can eat them like their life depends on it.


After dealing with a mango fruit, if we take the inedible seed, dry it for a while and then bury it in the earth.Lets continue to irrigate it provided there is no rain and then ensure regular weeding.


Fast forward, in like some 8months the mango seed has now germinated into a mango tree whose canopy provides a pseudo-shade on a hot afternoon.
Like the provision of the shade is the primary purpose of planting the seed, the mango tree suddenly stops growing.


1year, 2years , days counting , no flower, no fruit. Alas!!! 
our mango tree is certified barrel in contrast to its purpose of producing mango fruits.


The consequences is multi-facet in nature. One, as a planter I constantly anticipate harvest that will meet the needs of my friends and hence help them to save some money. so I will end up with no harvest and secondly, my friends won't be able to save.


Directly and indirectly our lives are on a stand still, because the mango tree fails to fruit.


Here is the message;

"when we fail to grow into all God has designed us to be, other people whose life is directly or indirectly hinged,connected or intertwined to ours won't grow too, so everybody is on a stand still".


It's rather simple and clear. When you don't grow deliberately or otherwise, always try to imagine the rippling consequences of your actions and inactions on other people whose life are connected to yours. 


As a result of your direct or indirect influence on others, you must take your growth and advancement very seriously. You must be committed to growing and stare off the course of mediocrity.


       Let’s go a step higher. YES WE CAN.
