There is an issue that has been burning in my heart and I want to talk about it today.
This horrible self imposed plague is called #INSENSITIVITY
A lot of people carry this plague around without even knowing it
There is a thin line between your definition of showing concern and being insensitive
When you see that ex classmate of yours, you knowing he/she is not married and the first thing you say is "why are you still single? As fine as you are, are guys or ladies blind. Please tell me, when did beauty or good looks become a prerequisite to having a happy home or getting a precious gift of a good man or woman? That you got married to the first man who asked for your hand in marriage does not mean some people will have it so easy
When you see that lady who has been married for sometime and is yet to put to bed and you go asking, when are we coming to carry your baby, please tell me, are they God to know when the lucky sperm will meet up with a willing egg? That you conceived the month you got married does not mean every other person's story will be like yours
When you see that person who you assume should own a car and you go about asking, when are you buying your own car? You are a big girl/boy. Please have they shown you their payslips for you to be the judge of what they should own or what not? Do you know the financial obligations they have that have made them live within their means?
When you see that woman who has only a child and you go asking her, when are you giving lagbaja a junior, please tell me is it your junior? That you are able to birth 5 children in two years does not mean the other woman will have it so easy
That you own your own business does not make the people who still work under someone less important or make you better off.
When you see that lady/man who you think is quite on the big side and you go running it in their faces of how they should watch their weight please tell me, is it your weight? There is something they call emotional intelligence, learn it!
Let us put a stop to this plague.
Stop judging people based on your own life journey, stop putting people under undue life's pressure
Our stories are different, our experiences will never be the same that is why we are unique in our ways. No two people on earth have the same kind of palm not even identical twins born of the same mother.
Write your story, let me write mine.
Learn how to truly show concern for others
You know that woman who is yet to conceive and trusting God for a child, please keep them in your prayers
You know that man or woman who desires to be married but has some challenges along this line, please keep them in your prayers. You can never go wrong by praying an intercessory prayer.
Let us know the difference between being insensitive and showing true concern
Do not be the reason why someone would remember the battles they are fighting
Let your love tank increase daily
