We have at one time or another wanted to be identified by a certain group or be seen as belonging to a certain “click”. Changing how we dress, eat, talk, socialize with, hang out with and so on. Yet in all this, we have ended up losing our true and close friends, all due to our desire of belonging. Admit it!you have been in such a predicament before. Engaging in things you don’t usually do so as to be known as one of the cool guys.
Life has a way of handing us circumstances that makes us rethink how we do things and handle the outcome. Many have fallen prey to the peer psychology in which they change who they are for the sake of being part of what society deems as being the “in thing” or as bluntly put ” being cool”. Shame on you!
When you were born you were loved the way you were and no changes or alterations were required to make you someone else. Taking up how a certain click of people operates has clouded the mentality of the young making them go to extreme lengths to be seen as “cool”. If we continuously indulge the ideologies of those around us we shall loose our true selves in the world of others
.If you ever take time as an individual and appreciate your worth no one will try to change you.Be proud of who you are, a true son of the earth or a daughter of Africa.You are who you should be no matter what others think of you, know that you are unique in your own way. It is either, others will learn to take you as you are or they will shove off and get themselves a life.BE YOU!
