Lets talk about sacrifice.
.....As I sit down now battling the ins and outs of Java programming I recall the big dreams of my high school. My mind wallows to all the abstract and miscalculated plans I made, the risks not withstanding.
I have always prided myself in being at the top of every food chain. For the few that I prided to lead it took a great deal of passion, sacrifice, hard work , setting of goals and focusing on the target at hand. I came outside and being at the top of the food chain became a priority and so I set the ball rolling to begin building Africa's next top tech firm that would compete in the ranks of Google and Microsoft. Accruing a net worth of 70Bn$. Sadly again I learnt life after High school is no different when you have dreams and ambitions like mine. It still took a great deal of hard work, and this time I have to work a lot harder. Sacrifices still had to be made. This time even much greater sacrifices...a sacrifice like no other, a sacrifice of one of life's greatest gift. A sacrifice of your youth. It meant investing hours in coding and practice, around experts so as to learn. Now my eyes are fully opened to the risks and losses ahead but who cares about 6 years of youth which can be invested to return at least 60 more years of stress free life and ascertain you a smile on your face every morning when you wake up rather than a curse as you plan on how you will acquire your next meal.
True strength lies in submission which permits one to dedicate his life to something beyond him for the greater good. No great thing was ever built without sacrifice. I may offer a shilling for a mention where sacrifice was a key component towards the building of a successful venture but offer priceless for a mention of where it wasn't . Need I cite examples of sacrificed youth? Our very own Mark Zuckenburg built facebook with his friend in shifts throughout the whole night or as young Gates sacrificed his sleep to get a chance to code at University of Washington. As statistics and history have clearly put it I to have no otherwise but to make a sacrifice. Painful it is but I have no choice. At times there I am staring into my code editor window after a failed debugging operation and part of me begins to wish for what am sacrificing but then hope beckons ahead. I confide in my love for programming to see me through
Feel free to join me in making these sacrifices for a better tomorrow. My friends I also do miss you guys but this is a sacrifice for a better us tomorrow. Adios......
Let me get back to the love of my life , Java . The most powerful and beautiful programming language known to man. Though hard I will crack it and great innovations and programming solutions are headed your way.

The most... beautiful programming language known to man? That's Python, son.
