Technology has really changed the world, what never happened in the days of our parents are the things happening now. Especially the social network era!! INSTAGRAM. Like seriously, millions of profiles on Instagram, each with his/her own posts, but the common thing these days is that people do not tend to show their real self on Instagram. I don't know maybe they are doing this to show off or to please some people or just to oppress their enemies. Lol like seriously, I just wonder
For instance, imagine someone waking up early in the morning without even saying their morning prayers, the next thing is a post on Instagram, "everything on fleek" like really, just try and check on the person at home on a normal day and u will see that nothing is on fleek. Sometimes most pictures people post on their Instagram pages are just random pictures but then some peeps have taken it upon themselves like if they see someone posting something, maybe she wore a nice shoe, or dress, bag anything and posted. The next thing u will hear is "Ha, I have to get this thing, this babe/guy is wearing, "I have to own this", 'I must do the same thing", Abeg don't give yourself high blood pressure o. Those people you see wearing those things or you see them having all the beautiful shots on their page, though some are real but some, you don't know what they are passing through, what they have been through and how they are living their life. A person u see laughing doesn't mean he/she is living that happy or perfect life, he might just be doing that to wile away his pain and sorrows.
They say all that glitters is not gold, this is a proverb which some people still don't understand. A friend once told me that it is easy for people to buy a clothing from a store, especially all these "abroad/oyinbo country things" with the label intact o, they will look for a nice location or environment, take a good picture and after that return the cloth back to the store for an exchange or if possible for a refund. But the next thing, you will see is that picture on the social media, and you want to kill yourself over something that the poster doesn't even have. God will help you.
In summary, my people, be contend with what you have, if you have it, no crime in showing it off, at least, you know you work hard for it and it is your own property but if you don't have it, there is nothing bad in working hard in a good and holy way in getting what you want but please don't be too desperate. There is time for everything in this life. All these rich Forbes, they invest on things that
will give them a long lasting revenue/income not something that will not profit them.
We are to decide how we wanna live our own lives, and at the same time we can live it the right way.
