Frank and Abel: Life And Principles
Once upon a time, there were two friends who lived together in a community, they were very good friends who have been co-existing peacefully for a long time. One of them was named Frank, and the other was named Abel. They were living happily until they decided to go and find the purpose for which their lives were destined for, so they went to see a spiritualist.
On getting there, the spiritualist told Frank that he is meant to be king over the community, and that sooner or later, he will be king. The spiritualist went as far as kneeling and bowing before Frank, and hailing him as the soon to be king, and this made Frank very happy. The spiritualist told Abel that he doesn’t see him becoming much in life and that he will have to bow to his friend when he is crowned king.
Frank left the place with excitement, while Abel left very sad. Frank began to boost of himself in the community and people starting hailing him king, and so he didn’t see the need to find himself work to do or try to improve his life, he lazily waited for the day he will be crowned king. Abel on the other hand left the community to another community to start his life afresh. Abel went into business and with time, his business grew very big and he became wealthy.
Many years passed and Frank remained idle, still waiting for the crown. One day, Abel returned to the community to see how things were going, and when the people in the community saw Abel and how wealthy he had become, they all decided to crown him as their king, that he will make a great impact in the community when it comes to business and investments. Frank objected and said he is the one to be king, people told him that he is too lazy to be king, and that he sits around from morning till night doing nothing. And so, they crowned Abel as their king. Frank got to realize that life has principles, he did not give himself value, he did not develop himself and was lazy for years, and these is not supposed to be how kings plan their lives. Frank on the other hand understood that every stage, position, destination in life have their requirements and criteria that you must meet up with.
