Each man was born for a purpose. Some find the purpose, pursue it, and fight on to fulfil it. Some find it, but sit unconcerned, and allow nonchalance to kill it. Others do not find the purpose at all. So they come and live on this earth, and pass on, sometimes unnoticed.
But I have searched carefully for the purpose behind my own birth; and I will pursue it, and spend all my all in fulfilling it. And that is why I do what I do.
I do what I do because I was born to find the helpless, and help them. I was born to find the hopeless, and show them hope. I do what I do because, I was born to search through the earth for orphans and widows, and tell them that God is their Father, and caretaker. I was born to find the disheartened and comfort them; and the poor, and show them the way to prosperity. I do what I do because I was born to touch the world and transform it, beginning from Ghana, throughout Africa, and the rest of the continents...
It is for this purpose, I was born. And it is for this reason, I do what I do. And it is because of this, that I will keep on doing what I do, and do it with all the grace and all the years my creator will bless me with, in all humility, in honesty, and in hard work.
So will keep on writing I,
For all the peoples on the earth;
And do it as my days pass by,
Even till the minute, I lose breath...
So help me God.
