DON'T DUMP ON MY LAND

I am the Head

This is not the place, where you say you can. Don’t walk confidently from there to another man’s land. Don’t allow your arrogance to guide you. I am the head of this land. Don’t dump on my land. If you are full of trash. This is not the place. I will not allow it. It does not matter how determined and inflamed you are. You will not walk from there to destroy my land. You don’t get to tell me you can. You will not destroy because you simply can. You will not get that permission from me. I am properly seated on my headship seat. No one will unseat me. It is my land. And I will protect it. Bad people will not takeover. I will remain in charge. And see who will be bold enough to come and destroy. There mere fact that you destroy things. Does not mean you will destroy mine. We have limits here. And you must learn to respect boundaries.

This is not a borderless land. This land has clear marks. Marks that demonstrate that it belongs to someone. The owner of the land has done great work on it. This is a controlled property. Property where owners are in charge. And they are not playing games. They know how to protect what truly is theirs. So don’t use ignorance that informed a previous decision on this land. I have been in charge since day one. And I know how to take care of my land. It is flourishing. My land is fruitful. That is even how you took notice. You saw the harvest and thought that, you could just walk in. Because that is what you always do. But get this. I am not those people. I am the head here. And you will not walk from there to here with just a motive to devour. You will not destroy what you don’t know. You were not there when this land was acquired.

No Ignorance

So you don’t know anything about this land. And don’t even think your arrogance will cut it here. You chose the wrong land. And you will not trespass. You will not dump. And nothing will be destroyed under my watch. I will not allow you. I did not start ploughing this land with you. And you don’t know the background. Don’t pretend you know anything. You just saw something and thought that you can encroach. As you always do where you are allowed. However, here. No one allowed you. In fact, you are not needed here. You are wicked. And I don’t need wickedness on my land. Take your trash elsewhere. Go where you are needed. In borderless places. Where everything and anything is allowed. But here, you must learn restraint. You must learn the meaning of respect. Don’t just come because you can.

This is not the place. And I am not the person you want to play with. Maybe, you underestimated. And thought that you can access anything. You were wrong. The mere fact that you don’t see a watch tower, does not mean no one is looking. I am watching. Always looking. Because I worked hard to have everything producing in season on my land. Fruitfulness did not just happen. So don’t see good things and want to destroy them. I don’t care how much envy you carry. I also don’t care how much darkness you bring. All those are your burdens. Don’t spread them. If destroying is your forte. Again, this is not the place. Don’t dump on my land. I don’t care who you are or how you carry yourself around. If you live mannerlessly. You don’t get to bring your bad manners here. Right here, people respect. And only act when instructed.

Don’t be wild here. Walking aimlessly everywhere. Who gave you permission to inspect? How do you inspect that which is not yours? Why do you want to gain access by force? Why can’t you live within limits? Don’t act childish. You know what you are doing. You destroy good things. Things that you don’t know how to create. Good things that you cannot become. And you feel that since, you cannot have them. No one should have them. But who are you again, to decide what people should and should not have? Who made you the judge? We are skilled here. My land is well managed. I only work with skilled people. Experienced people. People who know what they are doing. My land did not just begin to flourish on its own. People worked hard. And spent a lot of time planning. It took a lot of resources to get here.

Enough

So don’t walk confidently from there to destroy. No one will allow it on my land. Because we know the cost. We know what it takes to keep a productive field. Yet, your ignorance makes you think you know everything. To an extent that you just get up and go. But you will not get up and go with me. No one will throw anything meant for destruction on my land.  Since, your hands are skilled in destruction. Don’t touch anything. Don’t touch anything on this land. Don’t walk near the borders of this land. Stay very far. And don’t keep looking in the direction of this land. This land has an owner. And the owner will not let you in. Because you have reputation. Nobody will spend all that time and resources for another man to steal. No one will give you permission. Not even in their dreams. And you better listen.

We don’t have time to entertain foolish people. People who think other people will work hard. And they will destroy as they wish. Foolishness is no longer in charge. It is people with reasonable minds who are in charge. People who deliberately build successful operations. We are a determined group of people. People who work hard with clear intentions. And we will not allow anyone to destroy our progress. You will not bring your evil confidence here. You will also not bring malevolent practices from your region. If you practice wickedness from where you come from. My land should be the limit. And you should learn to remember all manners. Don’t come here arrogant. Don’t come envious. Don’t bring any garbage. My land is not a dumping site. So tone down your destroying confidence. Don’t walk into my life and think that you will destroy. Everything in my land belongs to me and I will protect it. There is no room or space for destruction here. So walk away with your ugly head. And never look back.
