There’s No Method To This Madness.

There’s no method to this madness.

I’m supposed to have my shit together. Basically supposed to be making all then right decisions but life has a way of hitting you point blank in the face.

Is there really a method?

Being a Nigerian, the basic dream is to leave Nigeria in search of a better life, even amidst the ridiculous exchange rate gaps, I’m supposed to focus on leaving. How can this be my reality? Its not as if I don’t think America/Canada/Europe is good enough or that I wouldn’t go to any of these places if I could afford them. The problem I am pointing out is the obvious difference in my reality compared to another 22 year old American. He’s probably in school, working a job that can afford him his own place or better still working with his team to launch that new “big thing”.

It’s unfortunate that I have to “pray” and “hope” for a change/change of heart of/for our thieving leaders. But then again, it would be really naïve of me to blame “them” as if my/our complacence did not contribute to the level of decay we’re facing now. It’s always “all good” or “getting better” because we learnt how to endure injustice while looking up to “GOD”.

I’m so mad at myself for where I’m at right now but like some of the motivational speakers I’ve been reading/listening to lately, I now understand that nobody really gives a sh!t about my realities and one would even argue that if I can maintain or publish blog posts, I should be able to make something for myself from the internet.

I think I’m going to do just that.
