Worrying About the Wrong Things

The world we live in today is a very busy one. We are all up and about our daily activities all the time just to earn a living and be comfortable in life. However, some of us still find time out of our busy schedules to worry about things that don’t really matter.

We all have problems in our lives, but some problems or worries are not really worth it if you ask me. Worrying about your next meal or how to cater for your family makes a lot of sense buy worrying about not having the latest iPhone or Gucci bag doesn’t make sense to me. Na who chop get time to worry about these things.

Personally, I believe that everyone’s worry is valid because you never know how much what they are worrying so much about means to them. But then, there’s always an exception. If there’s one thing that people make a big deal out of that I believe doesn’t make sense is our desire for perfection. We all know that no one is perfect and perfection is just a concept. We all try to be the best at whatever we do, but to be perfect is far from our reach in most things.

Talk about how women are pressured to look in shape just to please men. These women will go to heaven and hell, take drugs, use ointments and so on just to look like what others would want. It doesn’t make sense to me. Men on the other hand are not left out. We’ve all seen how women of today talk about wanting a muscular man and what have you. These days, all o it men are in the gym. I don’t know if there is a war coming or something cos it’s really getting out of hand. Exercising to keep fit is good, but we mustn’t put too much pressure on our bodies just in our quest to please others.

I always say that someone who loves you will always like you so far as you take good care of yourself. Don’t go pushing yourself to the extremes just for others. Whatever you’re doing, do for yourself and not for others. Cos your life is you’re and yours alone.
