Often times in life, I have seen and met people who live their lives as though tomorrow was non-existent. These set of human squander their today like it means nothing and when tomorrow which they thought was non-existent comes they freak out and repeat those things which they did in their today which is now yesterday hence they continue squandering each day of their lives until they realize they have no more today to squander and at this point life to them becomes nothing more than “HAD I KNOWN”.
The above has recently made me to wonder about what exactly happens to these set of humans who messes up their today with procrastination, silly excuses, life damaging actions and words wrong decisions and choices, bad friends and acquaintances, going to the wrong places daily, bad communication and everything evil you could think of and the only answer which comes to my mind is that “THEY PAY THE PRICE”. This price could be life changing either for good or for bad and most times could lead to self destruction or self realization but what’s important here is that these set of humans get to pay the price which to an extent do not matter to those who have chosen the part of self destruction but at the other hand means a lot to those who have chosen the part of self realization while paying the price.

Moreover, most times this price could be so huge that it might involve paying with the most treasured things in life, for example it was reported recently that a man in the United States caused his son’s death on the day of his graduation from college by refusing to believe that the people he accused of stealing a bottle of perfume he bought as a gift for his son on his graduation day wasn’t stolen by them; hence it is only after these set of humans pay off with this price that they realize how totally messed up they have become and at this point they are only left with two options which are, to continue messing up everyday of their lives and keep paying the pay or quit messing up everyday of their lives to turn a new leaf of life. It is at this juncture that these set of humans will either choose self destruction or self realization knowing gainfully well that they have what I call “SUPER LIMITED CHOICE”. Super limited choice in that for them life has now become a “yes, I can change” or a “no, I can’t change” and this is that sole point where they could cleverly cling to lives realities to become somebody or foolishly escape from lives realities to become nobody leading them to live life in misery and pains until the day when they decide to end their own lives by themselves or leave it to fate to take it away from them through natural causes with the later been mostly the choice for these set of humans.
However, the big question now is “How do you live your life?” Do you live your life messing everyday up? Do you live your life making the wrong choices and decisions? Do you live your life based on damaging actions and words? Do you live your live procrastinating daily? Do you live your life so freaking bad that everything good to you does not matter but everything evil to you matters a lot? If the answers to the above questions are all “hell yes!!” then you need to be careful because you actually belong to the set of humans who will soon start “PAYING THE PRICE” or who are already “PAYING THE PRICE” for all the silly whatever you have done and if time is not taken in the nearest future, you might be faced with the “SUPER LIMITED CHOICE ISSUE” which will either be your turning point to becoming a somebody or your destruction point to becoming a nobody all through life.
Furthermore you might ask, for how long will these prices be paid? The truth is that, the extent of the price anyone will pay for messing up their lives is totally dependent on how unfair and negligent they have been or were to life, its challenges and daily affairs. To some, they pay very little prices while others wallow paying huge prices but the most touching thing is that both groups of person described above get to feel the pains that life brings and gives to them as they pay these prices. So you and I have to be careful about everything in life and most especially how we manage ourselves in the cause of living life so as to avoid “PAYING THE PRICE”.
Finally if you are already paying the prices, I personally advice that you cling to the path of self realization which promises more hope than you ever will have elsewhere in life because this path has d light that your life needs to glow again in it utmost awesomeness.
