Blame Game

WOLOF:

‘Defa Sohor Rek, MunonNala Dimbaleh Nga Tuki’
‘Defla Banya Jox Ligeuye Rek, Moye Boss Bi Fofu’
‘Jekeuram Borom Baxa La, Defla Banya Def Si Jaama Rek’
‘Hamga Nyata Years Mungi Europe, Wye Dula Yorbu, Defa Wicked’
‘Mungfa Di Party Rek, Mbokam Yang Fi Di Bahal Kherr’
‘Korku Defa E’nyan, Borpam Rek, Hanna Ak Mboki Jabarram Yi’
‘Ki Bugut Ken Tekki, Wye Yallah Waxut Ken Dara’
‘Toubabam Bang Ko Yornay Aye Article, Wye Du Mayeh’

END OF WOLOF

These thoughts and so much more are so clichéd that they now make me sick, and I believe the moment of truth is long overdue. I believe only an uncaring person will blind his eyes and pretend to not knowing the sufferings of others, but I believe pointing finger at someone who’s in absolute clear of your troubles is also the pits of insensitivity.

I believe you wouldn't have an enemy more than yourself if you exonerate yourself from taking personal responsibility for your life. If you prefer to remain faithful to your prejudgements, expecting the entire human race to not only be of assistance, but to hand you the life you could've created for yourself, and if you’re not afforded the exact life you desire, or the one you think you deserve, you get down to blaming everyone, from God right down to the devil.

Believe this or not, ours is the ‘Helpageddon’, don’t look it up, it is not yet in the dictionary. It is the end of supportive-world, and no one should expect humanity to be as humanitarian as old times, trust me. So I guess the sooner we bring the blame game to an end the healthier for everyone.
In fact, sometimes you don’t know, the people that you think are preordained to alleviate your burdens have their own inconveniences; and just because they do not see any need to pressure others with their anguish, doesn't mean they’re all right.


Perhaps ruthless, but if truth be told, nobody is obligated or designed to be anybody’s guidebook. Nobody owes anybody anything, and whosoever volunteers to motivate anyone is only doing it for kindness’ sake. Just take it as a bonus and appreciate. I hope this piece causes no offence

You only get one life to live...

I’m sure some of you’ll remember my bashing of those kids who fervently trust that “you only live once” (YOLO), mostly to feed their desire ...
