Let Us All Learn To Help And Support One Another. - [ True Fact ]

I think I have said this before, but I still feel the need to stress the issue again. We are all young people with dreams, each one of us chasing his or her own passion trying to make a mark in this world. We have got musicians, writers, actors and actresses, models, athletes, bloggers, photographers, makeup artists, comedians, fashion designers, chefs, young entrepreneurs, graphic designers,...etcetera, with each talent and dream unique in its own way.

Social media provides such a great opportunity for us to showcase our craft to the world but sadly, we are not exploiting it because of petty childish competition and envy. It really pains me when I see peeps online struggling to get, attention for their products and not getting it because their friends are not being supportive.

We do not promote positive thoughts online, your fashion designer friend posts a picture of a new attire they just made and tagged you in it and you do not even as much as give it a " Like ". Your musician friend sends you a link to his new song and you do not even click it. Seriously, what is up with that? How much does a " Like " cost? All these " Slay Queens " that get over 1K Likes on their selfies, wait untill they decide to do something productive with their timeline and watch their fans reduce drastically.

" Why Are We Such Hypocritical Haters? "

We love and support celebrities who do not even know us, like and share their shit on social media all day long no matter how dumb they are, download their songs and " Famz " them like demi-gods but ignore our struggling friends whose works are probably way more talented than the celebs we love so much. Do you think the celebrities you run after today got there by magic? Someone supported them, their friends, family, colleagues; someone stood by them through their upcoming days and supported them to stardom.

I mean, wouldn't it be nice in a few years from now, to look around and see you and your friends all made and living your various dreams? Wouldn't it be nice to say to people " My friend just won a Grammy ", or " I know the CEO of that hot trending designer brand ", or " The author of that best-selling novel is my friend ". Isn't that the future we all desire? If there is one thing I believe, it is that whatever you wish for others eventually comes right back at you.

If you wish people good, good will come back to you, but if you harbour malicious contempt for others, you will always find yourself on the negative side of life. Let go of the envy, there are billions of stars in the sky but you never see them struggling for space. Let us love, help and support one another like the human beings we are. It is the only way we are going to make it to the top.
