Gunman step her Craig paddock, 64, an addicted gambler who enjoyed playing high- stakes poker, killing himself shortly before offices stormed his 32nd – floor room at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino. Authorities seized over 40 firearms that Paddock had in his hotel room or at his home in Mesquites, Nevada, where police also seized explosives and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
The police described Mr Paddock as a crazy lunatic full of hate. Amazing world indeed! Note that this man was wealthy! He was not a poor lunatic! What will drive a wealthy man to become full or hate for society? It shows that vanity is the last bus-stop of wealth! Hear Sir Richard Steele: “Vanity makes men ridiculous, pride odious and ambition terrible.” No wonder he wasted close to 60 souls in a few minutes!

Indeed, success, joy and fulfillment are not tired to money, education who you know, who you don’t know, power, social ranking, etc, but it is determined by discipline, connection to God and inner peace! Success is not the key to happiness! Happiness is the key to success! Success is not measured by how popular you are before men but how popular you are before the throne of grace.
Success is how much you care about others and not how famous you are! Success is love because GOD is love! Yes, success is not is not measured by how much you take but how much you give! Yes, success is not measured by just your testimony alone, but how people testified because of your life! Oh! Success is not just victory, but the amount of opposition you overcame before that victory! So the rich also cry when their hearts are not rooted in GOD!
