About the Item
Destiny of a Young Man is an original painting by John Ayobamidele. John created Destiny of a Young Man Acrylic on a 29.5W by 41.3H inches primed canvas.
Destiny of a Young Man depicts the Day arrived, and the wheel gradually gained momentum and led human Hearts towards knowledge, something the Hearts had known for a long time.
The man was not yet able to comprehend the Wisdom of his own Heart. He had not actually guessed that the Heart was capable of knowing and all the while, the still, small Voice, which imparted the wise counsel of Life, was practically inaudible to the insensitive human ear. The intellect was not able to perceive what the Heart knew, for it was subject to decay.
The Heart woven out of Light belonged to Life. The Heart’s secret was that it could not live without Love. Only Love’s energizing currents could wind the hidden main spring therein, the spring that allowed the Wheel of Life to rotate. The Heart without Love was dying away, losing its life force.
There was nothing for him to fear once the darkness desired such hearts, Evil was amassing legions of venomous thoughts, capable of poisoning the whole Joy of his heart with their sinister stench.
Joy was the lampion oil that made the Flame of Love glows brightly. The dark host of the evil thoughts was successful, depriving the little fire of the nourishment it needed. The Sun wished to apply the full force of his energizing currents to restore her soul to Life. He did not blame himself for having lost the Gift (her) but rather was depressed about the evil world and the ability to love. For the Star himself, the most important thing was Love, so that the Fire-breathing Warmth of his Heart would be enough for all. But to that end, it was necessary to find such a heart capable of accepting the mighty Warmth of Heaven, unafraid of being burnt and staying alive in the Fire-breathing Flame of Love.
This was something only the man could wish for. So, day by day, the Sun circled the Earth in search of her.
