Its about creating friendship and achieving your God given purpose in life. Do you think that everyone achieves his dream or the purpose God bestowed to him. I doubt but what might be the reason behind not achieving your purpose. I have no definite answer in my head but i think it is the lack of trust and faith in yourself that you can make it despite the difficulties around the issue that really make people to give up.

Due to the degradation of culture and the changes in our communities, has build a situation where people are not willing to step up and do stretch themselves and take a risk and see what will happen. for example lack of patience among young people is evident they dont want to go through the journey but want quick riches and this has led to some joining criminal gangs.
