CHOOSE TO BE DIFFERENT


Nothing is sweeter and more satisfying than the feeling of living life and achieving something worthwhile with a pure conscience. Life will not give to you what you feel you deserve, but what you make a demand for, and in dire situations it is quite difficult for us to live without the things we desperately need. It is in moments like this that our strength of character is being tested. It is very easy to say you want to live right, but the actual reality is when you are able to backup your words with actions.
Times have changed and so has it been with cultures around the world. Nowadays young people have gone haywire. Young girls walk on the streets semi-nude or worst still completely nude all in the name of fashion. They sell their bodies and even boast about sleeping with every Dick, Tom and Harry, and even with some men old enough to be their 'forefathers'. Some go as far as sleeping with animals (bestiality), abuse social media by uploading their dirty pictures and making meaningless posts without second thoughts of how damaging it could be to them both in the present and in the future. It is now a normality to find young people engaging in sexual relationships just because they what to belong. Daylight murder of babies from unwanted pregnancy and such anomaly is now seen as a modern trend. For the ones saddled with keeping the babies, show no sign of remorse or mental rehabilitation to right their wrongs just like their male counterparts who are so engrossed in social vices. They pride in their youthful exuberance. Where did we forget our morals? What do we see today from our young men of today? Their absolute show of irresponsibility and lack of purpose makes me wonder if there is any hope left for humanity. Their strength which should be their glory is now been channeled into crime. Their quest for power has led majority of them into cultism. I can recall the words of English Catholic Historian, Politician and Writer:
'Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely...'
Hooliganism, homosexualism, leasbianism, drug abuse, internet fraud and other acts of perversion by these young people makes me sick and wonder if they'll ever leave good footprints in the sands of time. How did we consent to their dirty lifestyles that seen them become prisoners in the gulag of mediocrity? Now, they have also been possessed by the spirit of mammon as their insatiable appetite for money has led many into evil and diabolic practices.
So contemptuous is the fact these young people are encouraged by negligent adults who are either parents or guardians also caught up in the web of immoral life. The public officer who steals from the government coffers? The clergy whose masked deceits has led many of his sheep to hell? , the educator who miseducates a young child into destruction?, the parents who are a shadow of themselves and are not true role model for their children to emulate?, and I could go on. The society prefers to celebrate “a Barrabas” who is evil and has caused them pain, than “a Jesus” who is meant to be their Saviour. A good man is not revered and is seen as the devil's advocate for his good deeds. Living in the society has never been more questionable than it is now. Where do we go from here? It's time for us to live right. We must challenge the status quo and be the change we want the world to see. It starts with personal culture.
It's time for a change. Remember, nothing changes around and about you until something changes within you.
Cheers!
