My fellow brothers, you may say my mouth smells, but if I use the same mouth to cut kolanut for you, you may still collect and eat it happily. So if I use that same mouth to advise you, please do not refuse to listen, because sometimes the value is not in the messenger but in the message being delivered. In this life, I am not saying you should not make friends, but please be mindful of the kind of people you move with. Observe deeply and move wisely. Not everyone smiling with you truly wants your happiness or progress. Some people celebrate with you in public but secretly pray against your success in private. Always remember this: the world is not as pure as it appears. Even where people gather to eat together, many still do not want others to be fully satisfied. That is why silence, wisdom, and observation are very important in life. If someone tells you two words, reply with one. Do not talk too much, because a day may come when the same people will twist your words and say you spoke a hundred things you never said. Nowadays, many friendships are based on benefits. When there is food, enjoyment, money, or favor, people rush into your life. But immediately those things disappear, many disappear too. Life has taught us that some people are only loyal to what they can gain from you, not loyal to you as a person. Never be too available for people who cannot stand up for you when it truly matters. Never jump a fence for someone who cannot even jump a gutter for you. Some people will act normal in your presence, laugh with you, and pretend to care, but behind your back they are busy snitching, backbiting, and destroying your name. My brothers, shine your eyes. Inside every circle, there is another hidden circle. Inside every caucus, there is still another caucus. Not everyone close to you is genuinely for you. Rugged observation is very important in this generation. And let this advice touch your soul: Do not lose your good heart because of wicked people. Stay humble, stay prayerful, and keep your peace. A clean heart will always defeat a fake lifestyle in the end. The same God who sees the tears people hide also sees the betrayal they pretend never happened. Protect your energy, value loyalty, and never force yourself where you are not appreciated. Life becomes easier when you learn to know your real people. I have known mine, and I hope you also know yours. Papapasupe… that one go understand itself softly ✌️ — Ogba Presido Lastborn 🤍 #alorasealordsally - @lastborn488
