Pressure



This will be short! It’s simply from what I’ve observed lately. You know, I’m growing older and the thought of whether I’ll make it in life keeps knocking on my thoughts. I know I’m not alone in this. I know that for a fact because I’ve heard stories, watched on tv, heard on radio and heard from witnesses the stories of people who’ve taken this thought too too far. There was a story in the news of two young boys;16 and 18 who killed a boy(10) with the intention of using him for money ritual but were caught, the story of two people who drove two flashy cars into people standing at a bus stop. Their cars totally damaged, 6 people died on the spot at the bus stop, others injured but none of the drivers died. My friend Collins called me to share  how depressed he is because he feels he’s failing in life. Honestly, there’s a lot of pressure out there and I don’t think we make it a point to intentionally appreciate the little things we have anymore. Give me a ✅ if you think I should share how I keep calm by appreciating all I have. I think we need it now more than ever. Well... It’s almost 12 here and I need to go to bed now. Goodnight
