Tis the season to be jolly fa la la la !
*laughing uncontrollably at myself*
I'm so corny. I really think that song is funny.
That's another story...
Today I come to you as your friend, your fellow peer, better yet as your sister.
So bro & sis, let's chat...
This has been on my mind since I've entered college and have gotten super engaged in social media. I've come to the conclusion that our generation is so superficial and so engulfed in materialistic things. Unfortunately, this isn't everybody's life behind the iPhone. Behind the lens, we are struggling to pay for this and that but on Instagram, Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter etc. it's all about the look.
What's wrong with living in your truth? What's wrong with living in your struggle? Now if you're not struggling and this is your real life then this doesn't pertain to you. May you remain blessed.
To those who don't think that they are blessed....
Bro & Sis,
YOU ARE BLESSED. Blessed to be alive, blessed to be able to live a life where you can enhance yourself each and every day you're here. Don't let others on social media, school, wherever discourage you. Just because you don't have the latest this or that, or even a Mercedes Benz. Hell, you have a Nissan Altima and it runs just fine. Recognize what you do have and acknowledge that God has brought you life every time your eyes open each morning.
To conclude, don't let social media fool you. No matter how little you have or how much you have God can take it back in an instant just like an instant message. Be grateful, be humble, most importantly you are blessed.
Bro, sis, what you think? Let me know.
- Your sister from another mister.
