When there is nowhere left to go.

15 june 2022

It’s getting colder by the day. Anxiety hits harder these days especially for people of my generation. Now I am not saying our lives are harder than every other person’s out there but maybe it is. You see we are the 1% of the 1%.

I saw something online the other day from a Nigerian tiktoker. It reads ..

when you are born into this world it’s like playing a football match against life. At the point of your birth it is you 0-0 life.

if you are born poor or middle class then it’s life 1 you 0. If you are born into a third world country fighting bad governance and corruption at an intense level then it’s Life 2 you 0. If for some reason you are not educated or have any form of educational background then it’s life 3 you 0. If you don’t have connection in high places or don’t know any important person Life 4 you 0. If you aren’t born with a special talent that can fetch you money and fame again Life 5 you 0.

It goes on and on .. Now if you can have at least of these five just to mention a few then you really have a shot at life and If not well you just have to pray and hope for the best. Now do a self evaluation and tell me how many point you scored because I know what my score is….

You see there is something I have come to realize in life, it is the fact that our future and life is always tilting but at the end of the day there is always a balance. Things might get really worse and so unbearable but that doesn’t mean it wouldn’t turn around and get even better than the normal we are use to but then again it comes back. It is just life and as much as we want to fight or question it, it is what it is…

And so finding balance as a person is very important. 90% of the time it is out of our control. The only thing we can truly control is our idea of what balance or normal is to us. Let me explain further….

A man that saves $100 in his account. Sees that as his normal if something happens and he is not able to save up to that amount, maybe for a month or two he was only able to cook up $50 in savings. He would begin to panic. But if after those hard months he earns so much and start saving $200 then if feel really fulfilled and comfortable that he might even start spending lavishly. Why? Because $100 is “the normal” for him.

Right now those of us in the crypto world are growing through something of a panicky situation right now seeing even the almighty bitcoin fall below half its normal price. Let’s not even start to talk about our dear Bitcoincash. But listen when you fall so low that you are at the bottom of the bottom the good news is you have no where else to go but up.

Life can be a scary place and it comes at us fast. Sometimes we sit and wonder what if. What if we were born different. What if we grew up different. What if our thoughts, our mind, our looks, our life all of that was different, would it had made any difference?.

Watching things go sides ways and feeling like you are l**sing your sh*t while you can’t do much about it s*cks. Honestly it is a hard pill to swallow but then you just have to be like “well this is it, whatever happens from here on out I would remain positive” because truly the only thing we have control over in this life is the way we take and digest things. If you choose to see positives everywhere then you are likely to have a positive life and attitude. Same goes for the other way round but like i said the beautiful thing about reaching bottom of the bottoms is that there is no other way left to go buy up.

So if you are going through hell keep going because why would you want to go stop in hell.. right?. I don’t want to sound like a motivational speaker but no matter how you see it. It gets better from here on out..

Thank you for reading with me.
