Price tag

The decision on how to start this was a task for my mind ….. I am tempted to reference songs by some certain musicians but then I chose to postpone the referencing…. Here is the build up to this particular one  …. I woke up on a certain Wednesday morning after being let down the previous day by a lady whom I really wanted to know better ( for the sharp ones guess you know what I mean *winks) ….. the pause … am sure some are shocked at that , am only human after all and I crave such (In 2 baba’s voice “ Nobody holy pass”)…..

As usual, I did my devotion as a striving good boy, said my prayers and the usual morning preparation and rush began as I discovered it was 6.05am (screaming in my mind “yeparipa” 3^rd mainland traffic). I rushed everything and was on my way by 6.35am …. Then tuned the radio to my favorite radio station 96.9 Cool FM (see cheap advert)….. Mannie and the angels are just something else; you can try them and am sure you won’t be disappointed.  Back to the gist, then came a motivational speaker talking about value and then he said something about “Raising your value – surpass all other expectations and then break your own record”…… Boom here came my topic “price tag”. 

The title reminds me of the song by Jessie J titled price tag …..

She said in the song: Seems like everybody's got a price, and then later she said It’s not about the money, money, money…… I like the song so much but the question I ask is if everyone has got a price and it’s not about the money, what exactly is the price?
While pondering on this, another song came to my ever active mind.

It is no other song but the one from the take banana artist (D ’prince) titled “goody bag”. The line that hit me most was: What’s your selling point? This also implies we all sell one thing or the other and for every sale there is a price.

As a sure boy (in my mind), I have seen and I have heard and am still seeing and still hearing.  It is so painful when one walks around and you see the price tag placed on certain people and worse still is to find out how cheap the price tag some people have placed on themselves.

I have a price tag; the value is just inestimable right now because I am a full package (I got the bragging right). Before you yab (insult) me, Ask yourself the question: What exactly is my price tag?

The gist continues with another title soon …………. Stay chilling and please make your price tag a valuable o
