Brave new world | Look the other way.
I learnt something from my Aunty.
She said caring about someone isn’t just about telling them , it’s about going out of your way to please them. It’s being uncomfortable to make someone other than you happy.
I didn’t get it at first , it didn’t make much sense to me till she asked somethings of me. She knew it was going to be difficult for me, she asked me to do it anyway. I grumbled . It was tiring and I was extremely uncomfortable.
She brought up what she once said about going out of your way for someone . That’s love.
It was then I realized what she’s been trying to pass across. My view changed at that moment.
I started questioning people that would say they care about me but have nothing to show for it without even realizing it. I find it weird for you to say you care about me and won’t go out of your way for me. You can’t say you love me and not remember me in prayers. You can’t say you love me and not encourage me to be better , you can’t say you love me and not correct me or help me back on track if you see me deviating from the right direction.
Someone once told me that anyone can say I love you. It’s left for you to watch out for the ones that give you things they don’t have in abundance . I don’t mean material things in this case. It could be though. However, it could also be something money cannot buy. We all live in a crazy world , everyone is extremely busy. It takes someone that genuinely cares to create time out of the little he or she has for you.
It took me a while to realize this and I’m glad I know this now because I have never actually seen things in that light. Focus on the things that matter, it’s all vanity.
What you want still exists , no one should settle. Get rid of bad energy and bad vibes from certain people. If they aren’t contributing to your growth with God and in Life, why do they still exist in your world?? Why are you still keeping them ? Don’t be afraid to let go. Growth comes with a price. People aren’t meant to be in your life forever , the key is to know when to cut them off. If you want to be better, you need to be selfish at some point. Think about just you and what’s good for you.
Its sometimes difficult to find people that don’t judge but advice you and make you feel better. Surround yourself with those kind of people, the sort of people that not only want good for themselves but for you as well . The kind of people that push you to greatness, the kind of people that work with you to get a seat at the table where kings and Queens dine. The ones that look out for you , the ones that got your back. You know them. I call those kind of people breath of fresh air.
There are 7.6 billion people in the world and sometimes all you need is 1.
Carpé diem.
