Who Says Your Life Is Not Worth Living

Ogun State in Nigeria, is the state of my birth. I spent the early years of my life there but what later  become my adult life was molded and shaped in Lagos. 

Growing up in Lagos gave me the practical understanding of life existence and what it means to a  whole lot of people. The hustling lifestyle of most Lagos inhabitants tell the story of people, irrespective of class and status, who give meaning to their live just by living it.

I moved to my home state, Anambra, to continue my education and today with so many accomplishments, I've made a home here . And i continue to positively live my life, i never stop telling those around me on the need to live and have their own freedom in life.

It was W. Somerset Maugham, who said "there are two good things in life, freedom of thought and freedom of action.".

This is an amazing and powerful quote that everyone should stop and really think about.  There’s nothing better than having your own freedom in your life.  This can be accomplished by taking action and learning to manifest your life to its fullest potential.

One shouldn’t have to put their needs, goals, and dreams aside simply because you don’t think they’re important, worth the chance of coming true or because it doesn't work for some .

This concept that your dreams are never going to come true and it’s best to stick with reality, whatever that reality might be, is the easiest way out of taking responsibility of your life.

It’s so easy to just give up rather than have a strong soul that can guide you to your dreams.  This path is a harder path to travel through, but the only path that can lead you to true freedom that you deserve.

It’s difficult to try to be strong in a society that advertises so much negativity.

For example, this negativity can even be found within your own family, close friends and even on TV screen.  People, in general, that just say you can’t do something, it’s out of your reach, quit living in the clouds and come back to reality, all these comments get ingrained strongly in your mind and ultimately you fall for it and believe these comments.

You have to be strong in blocking out negativity in order to be strong, have self-value, spiritual-awareness, and self-worth.

This isn’t an easy task to do, because in this society we have been brought up to listen to other people’s opinions and not question them.

For example, we believe what we were taught by our parents and family members and just take it as it is rather than question their teaching methods.  You have to learn and make a wise decision and differentiate in what to block out and what to not.  If someone says you can’t do that, simply because they have no faith in you well this is where your inner strength is able to shine and prove them wrong.

Live the life you want to live, after all you deserve the very best.  As mentioned in the quote above, freedom is the most important thing in everyone’s life.
