******************************

They just want to feel among, your life is much better than theirs.

They just smile for the camera but deep inside they are lost.

They wear the new branded shoes and clothes, with diamond necklace and earrings to match their outfit.

They follow big people like lost pet.

They had the opportunity to be like you but they chose that life.

You are enough, you are trying, you'll surely make it.

Deep inside they envy you because they've lost their sanity to the outside world of immoralities and fame.

Don't feel disturbed by their actions, don't let them influence you.

Don't stoop low to their lack of being contented level.

Believe me, deep inside they want to be you, they want to end their fake life but they've gone far enough.

Don't believe what they say and don't let them belittle you.

Stand up high with heads straight and shoulders up and walk graciously on your way.

They can't stop you now because you don't feel disturbed by them because now you know better, it all a fake life.

Believe me, not everything you see on social media is true.

****************************

The rate at which people flaunt their lives on social media is just too much.

I'm not saying you shouldn't celebrate yourself on how hard you've worked to get to the place you are. In fact you should, your journey in life should motivate people to never give up.

Sadly we are left with the opposite, many have gone astray with the aim of making it, balling hard to get there irrespective of what they had to do.

Some go to the level of begging people to wear their new branded clothes, shoes and even undies or even rent them with their last card just because they want to feel among. They call themselves "pepper Dem gang".

You'd see the way they flaunt the dress that isn't theirs coupled with earrings , shoes and bag just to post and make their friends see they have arrived.

The guys would join gangs, do cyber fraud and some would even go the extent of using their partners, parents, friends and even themselves to gain wealth.

I am sure you've heard of -1, well if you haven't then I'll explain it to you.

Whenever you hear them say -1 ,it means another year is taken or subtracted from their age. These people have made use of themselves using their age to pay the price, this means if they were to live for 80 years, they'll have to live for 40 years instead including the years they've already used before they made the sacrifice.

Have you ever heard of a person barking like a bull dog?

You know that earth shaking bark of dogs right?

Well that's it.

I once met up with these people, the first one whose age was subtracted stayed 3 houses away from my hostel then.

When he came with a brand new car, people celebrated with him. It was the latest car then, I was on my way out when I saw wine been poured on the car and the guy to celebrate his success. I stopped to look and was happy for him.

Well , while going back on my way I heard a friend ask him, you don't really look joyous, what's wrong? Then my antenna like ear heard the word from miles away, minus 1.

The second guy who barked was at a club, my friend and I went to the club to celebrate with our friend on her birthday.

On getting there, we vibe normal, sang to music and danced giggling endlessly.

My phone rang and I had to go outside to pick it up because of the noise.

I had to walk fast so I'd able to pick the call, after many excuse me and lots of pushing, I got out and picked the call.

I was already at the club park where the noise wasn't much and I picked my call and chatted away with my friend.

Suddenly I heard barking from one of the cars, I was surprised and was curious to know who would bring in a dog to a club and keep it locked up in the car.

I spoke out loud to myself cussing who would have kept the dog locked up in such manner.

A tap on my back freezed me and I turned immediately to see my friend who I went to the party with.

She had heard me cussing and on my way to save the dog only for her to stop me in my track.

I became dumbfounded and was to ask her why she wouldn't let me save the dog but her hand pointed to a far away car and I had to move three legs closer scrutinizing my eyes to see what she was showing to me.

I bit hard on lips to stop the choking sound that almost escaped.

Right there was a guy barking hard, I had to move back and turned around to follow my friend back to the party..

Have heard of people barking but I never believed, seeing is believing they say because I saw and believed.

Minutes later, the guy came inside and looked okay, smiling to his friends and girlfriends of his return.

I heard the barking comes at anytime and they must bark or they'll loose their life. The more they barked the more money they received.

So tell me, why should you feel bothered?

Some girls do prostitution, some sleep with animals, some have sugar daddies , zaddy like they are being called๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ who take care of their needs.

But here you are, not barking, not prostituting so why should you be bothered.?

I hope this article was Informative enough to motivate you and tell you how strong, powerful and beautiful you are.

Will great thoughts in your mind and things will surely work you way.

Thanks for the usual tips, comments and love. I appreciate you all, including my viewers, sponsors and readers.

Thanks for reading and stay safe.

It's such a pity when people actually what they see online to get into their head, making them do what they aren't supposed to do because they want to feel among. Not every good thing on social media is actually the real thing. Many are fake. We shouldn't be disturbed but we should be ourselves.

I noticed you do bold all your write ups. It affect the eyes of some readers here. You can only bold words you are trying to emphasize on. My observation though.

Yes ninety percent of them are living a fake life . I'm sorry though, that's a selfish reason on my part, I can't see tiny letters right so that's why I prefer them big. I'll work on it, I never knew it'll disturb others too, thanks for calling my attention to that, I do appreciate.

And some people think jazz is a fable, well.. I have never envy people who flaunt their flamboyant life on the internet because they fail to understand the essence of life itself. I'm glad I'm doing well where I'm

The envy to have material things or to look like someone else is more acute in social networks. It is a social cancer to want to look like or have something that only have in the networks is like wanting to have that virtual life. Envy to the highest degree... interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Sad to know that nowadays people love showing off their expensive things on social media and others also wanted to follow and that even he/she can't afford to buy it, chances are they can do a bad thing for them to be able to buy those materials things others they want easy money like robbery, etc. As they found it easy to do than those who work 12 hours a day in a good way.

Social media deceives us a lot. Unfortunately, most people cannot tell the difference between socials and real life, hence they always want to emulate what they see up there while forgetting that a higher percentage of what is being showcased there is nothing but fake life.

Sadly as it is, they really do forget the higher percentage of what they could get just because they want to feel among and ball on time.

When we are to follow what people do on social media or with their lives we all will feel like we are nothing that their lives is way better than ours and that we can never live up to their expectations whatsoever but deep down we know is all fake and most of them are not even happy with their lives but just trying to prove
