A fool chooses a spouse based on skin colour - Counselor Adofoli

It's funny how some people discriminate or treat others badly because of their skin colour forgetting that whether black or white skin, all are the same and of the same quality and value. They all come from the dust or soil. It is unfortunate that some people see their skin colour as better than others, some even accord you respect based on your skin colour.

The bitter truth is, all skin colour are from one source and will all return home one day. We will return to dust one day. Blue skin, Black Skin, Brown Skin, White Skin are all from the soil. They will all be buried in the soil one day no matter how valuable you see your color, the value is the same. Soil is soil, dust is dust.

The wise who know this will treat every colour with respect because disrespecting another person because of colour is just like disrespecting yourself. You are not better than the other by the colour of their skin. I am yet to see a particular colour of skin or person of colour type that who died were never buried, nor decayed but remained as they were.

This kind of foolishness or village behavior or attitude or mental illness called racism is not only between the white and the black. Even among the black, people are so sick that they let the skin colour of a person define how to love them.

There are good men or women who are turned down in relationships or marriages, treated bad, and even called names because of the colour of their skin. As if the success of one's marriage or relationship depends on their skin colour.

Neither does looking good or cute together in photos show you have a perfect marriage. It takes the spirit of God, character and love to make marriage perfect, not skin colour.

Again, children are gifts from God and He chooses their skin colour, not men. Every wise person knows that, the colour of a child goes beyond science and also, it isn’t everything that science gets right.

So men and women who look down on others and reject their marriage proposals because of the colour of their skin or body, I want to submit to you that you are acting foolishly and need to grow up.

With all said and done, let us learn how to treat others the same way we want to be treated. After all, colour doesn't matter for no matter how you look, we are all from the same material; which is soil. We will all return one day irrespective of the colour.

Let’s relate to people by the heart and not by skin colour, let’s see the good in them not the look of their skin. Let's embrace and appreciate good character and not a skin colour. Your life partner might not have the same skin colour as yours, but might have the same depth of understanding.

True beauty is never defined by the colour of one's skin but by their heart. Let’s learn to be good to others for it will always come back in unexpected ways. Let’s care from the inside, ignore the looks, be kind at heart but mature in mind. That's what defines beauty and best personality, not the colour of one's skin.

In conclusion, "You will have to sweat to earn a living; you were made out of soil, and you will once again turn into soil” - Genesis 3:19 (CEV).
