What you want to be
My career as a Private Investigator has led me to places and exposed me to so many adventures in life. A good number of people feels that this field is a bit risky but if it is, then what do you consider being a Police Officer, a Soldier, Doctor and Teacher to be?
To me there is nothing like doing what you love doing and doing it to perfection,
"The
only risk in whatever profession you can imagine is life itself."
Do
what you know best and do not allow anyone talk you down , many will
under estimate you, many will look down on you but it is only you who
knows your worth and your goals.
We were hired to investigate the
house break/burglary in one of the apartments in the building and that
led to this discovery, there was a dead smell from the nearby room and
neighbors were tired of the occupant who has no work and is always on
the street begging.
“He is a good for nothing slot” said one of
the neighbors
No shouted another,” he is just a lazy fool”
With
orders from the court, the police were called in to clean up the room,
the door was broken after two hours of knocking without answer, we saw
this old tattered man and must be in his late 40(s), the smell in the
room was unbearable but it needed to be cleaned.
SURPRISE:
This man is a beggar in the street and has no immediate family around,
while cleaning up his room, the police discovered so many tied up bags
of money, these money were carefully counted and to everyone’s
amazement, a total of SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS was
recorded.
The first neighbor that called this man a slot owes six
months’ rent.
Isn’t this amazing that the beggar whose room has a
dead smell, that tattered slot is richer than all of us in that room?
This
man has been begging for the past 30years and each time he come home,
he will tie whatever money he got in a bag and drop in the room.
Sir,
you are rich so why do you still beg? One of the Police officers asked
him
It is what i love doing and does that give you guys the authority
to invade my privacy? He responded.
His room was neatly arranged and the money given to him but to my surprise.
Be what you want to be.
People will always underestimate you
But be yourself and what you want to be
You might not swim the ocean
You might not even walk with style
It is not important if you do not have the zeal
Just be what you want to be
You might not know how to kick a ball
Your cloths might be full of patches
Just be what you want to be
They might consider you disable
But you know that you are cool
Juts be yourself and what you want to be
It is left for you to trade your charm if you want
You might not know about the internet
Your English might be the worst
BE WHAT YOU WANT TO BE!.
