No One Is My Mate; I am My Own Mate...

Hello everyone, it's Dangerous_Fly once again . Please subscribe if you haven't and leave a like or a comment if you want to.

As children or growing people or adults we sometimes get into a period of failure and sometimes don't get things right but that doesn't mean we must be discouraged. We do take somethings for granted and also sometimes we work really hard to get somethings without anyone knowing exactly what we are going through.

This sometimes lead some people to say unto us, look at this or that person is your colleague, your mate, your age group or what not and he is way better than you. He does things accurately and is far better than you. He dresses with the newest assest but all you got is one way dressing.

Such statements are basically of the thought that when such words are said it will make the person sometimes have a feeling of being inferior and work hard to get into such places or have such entitlements but is that it?

This basically happens in the African communities where we see people laugh at others simply because they have got somethings, those laugh at don't have thereby giving them the authority to look down on them.

Instead of being rebuked, you see the adults in society also supporting them saying exactly the same words ,

• your mates have made it in life but as for you , you are always walking around with nothing.

• Your mates are having cars at their age but as for you , you don't own even a bicycle not talking of a motorcycle

• And a whole lot of comparison but sometimes do you know they funny part , these adults have nothing also and some are really poor but won't keep quiet.

What points am I raising?

There are basically sometimes that people find it really hard in life to make ends meet. They go up and down in search for all opportunities of which we might not see but instead of giving the person that hope that things will change we sometimes tend to make things worse as we would rather compare him/her to someone who we know has something without even knowing the source of that person's wealth.

All fingers are the not same and we shouldn't be comparing people to others and disgracing them in public simply because they can't cater for themselves not talking about buying all those Fancy stuff .

I thereby stand up always and say no one is my mate. If you want to compare someone to me you are not welcomed especially on the basis of prosperity. If it comes to academics, sports or such activities that we can easily get a winner , for that I am cool with it since I can be the best of it but in a situation where you compare my life to that of others aside certain activities but prosperity you are not welcomed.

So will someone not also tolerate comparing academics or any . Mostly such comparing only lead into putting too much pressure on the person of which he or she doesn't need.

Such pressure sometimes lead people astray after he or she gets mocked right in the face ; where people spit out such embarrassing words out to him. It can cause some to go in for money rituals , join fraud or whatever simply because of the pressure around.

I say , it is not advisable to always compare people to others based on their life, wealth or claims as it might drive the one who gets embarrassed into doing something that wouldn't be of help.

Thank you, and I wait for you at the comment section. It's Dangerous_Fly once again, Bring It On!!!.
