A person with no money will depend on yours
A person with no peace will take from yours
A person with no ambition will sabotage yours
A person with no confidence will make you doubt yours
A person with no direction will pull you off track
So be careful who you keep close, stop carrying people who have no plans to grow
A friend of mine did his child's dedication yesterday, but I couldn't attend because I had another commitment.
I still wanted to celebrate with him, so I sent him a message asking for his account number. I planned to send him 20k as a congratulatory gift.
He sent his account details, and before I could make the transfer, he asked,
"How much are you sending?"
I replied, 20k. He laughed and said,
"Big girl like you? I know you can do more than that."
I didn't even know what to say.
I was the one who offered to send him a gift. He didn't ask me for money, I offered out of goodwill. Yet somehow, it became something to bargain over.
I quietly closed my banking app, wished him and his family a happy celebration, and left it at that.
That moment reminded me that gratitude costs nothing. No one is entitled to another person's kindness, no matter the occasion.
We really need to talk about the entitlement mentality in Nigeria.
