You Are Better Than Nobody!
By Dr jarlat Uche opara
Always living in illusion! Carried away by the sizzling sensation of the imagination of what you think you are, fuelled by the hype and ingratiation of people.
Do you feel on top? Beloved? Special and indispensable? You may be on a free ride of ego massaging.
Wake up, see through the many praises and truckling of people around you, they are most times selfish and self seeking.Who do you think you are better than? Who exactly would sacrifice self for your comfort? There may be, but scarce . Those who would disinterestedly offer their coat, in a cold environment with a buffeting whirlwind to cover your nakedness.
Wake up, you are not better than anybody. Each was uniquely made, with our individual differences to compliment.
Time is a defining factor, being oneself, running ones race and maintaining ones lane without competition and comparison, the real deal.
Be yourself! Live your life unpressured, relating to others in a self effacing manner, simple and humble.
Be on your lane, life is parallel, no confluence, different lanes, different destinations, different goals, different vision and mission.
Be on your lane, be focused on your speed, there is nothing noble about being superior to others, the true nobility lies in being superior to your previous self and the worse shame is being the diminished version of your yesterday.
Focus on yourself. Forget the noise from praise singers. Such does not define who you are. Your real self lies outside the praise and hyping of the hungry crowd, right inside you lies your real self, only a sincere introspection would unveil it.
When the crowd praises and gives you the sensational feeling of importance, it is not about who you truely are but a reflection of what they get or intent to get from you.
Be unique. Be genuine. Be humble. Be simple and live above the flattery of men, a poison so lathel, nobody survives from it.
*My take away* You Are Better Than Nobody. The only person you should be better than is your previous self!
