Passivity of your existence

Do you really believe in whom you say you believe?
Do you really love the ones you say you love?
Do you really want the things you fight for?
Do you really mean the things you say to friends?
Do you really fear to fail a course?
Do you really care when you say you do?

Or are you just simply bound by the consequences society places on you: not finding a job, reaching 50 and realising you're still single, praying for something to happen and it doesn't, scared of what people will say about your preferences when you tell truly the things you want. Are you scared that if you answered these questions with answers that society doesn't approve of, you will be perceived as the odd one?

The passivity of your life and existence is the consequence of wanting to fit into a system of living that you were made or created to alter. Or don't you believe?

We have all come into space and time to cause some kind of change. You may not know it at this time, but you must continue to live, love and tell stories genuinely without cooking them up to conform with what is expected. You and I know that a story that has once been told is a stale one. Let's start telling our stories truly. 😎😎

About being a Christian, you sometimes forget what it means.
You and I are probably guilty of this. You sometimes want to be a passive Christian, the same way you love passively. You don't want to be responsible in the sense of the word. You just want to be when you feel like being. And on other occasions, you want to be able to take off the cloak and do the things the other person is doing. We won't be referring it to a cloak if we didn't think about it beiñg a distinct outfit to put on or a shape we are meant to assume once in a while. You sometimes become a passive Christian because you do not know what it entails. This is the reason you subscribe to all the fallacies that are told of how to be a Christian and forget that the life is not life of Christ if there is no power.

And about loving someone. If you must love, you should do so with your head and heart together. Do not say you love someone for the convenience it provides. Also, do not contemplate the other person's commitment. Let them know in the ways you can afford to let them [I believe gender and choice should apply here]. But be genuine in whatever you say to them.

Are you not passive in your career? You are making career choices not by what resonates with you, but by what society pays best. You do not want to wake up week after week and realise there is no work to be done and money to be earned. But trust me, this is not the case when you choose a career you are passionate about; whether or not it pays the best.

Are you even present at the events you attend? You are at a function and the only people that know that you are present are those on the other side of the social media. The lady sitting next to you  doesn't feel there is a human around her. She would probably only notice you when you sneeze or when you mistakenly step on her feet after laughing about a joke told by the person you are chatting with on WhatsApp.
Get connected with the environment where you are.

Are you even present and truly yourself? Sometimes, the only place you are ever present is in the misconceptions of the version of yourself you believe to be true. We all have a wrong impression of ourselves most of the times. That is why some psychologists advise that you should always try out some soul searching questions to know where you are in the scheme of things. This is also a reason for failed friendships; the guy feels he has a friend and the friend thinks they both are in some kind of romantic relationship. And it goes both way round.

You comments are welcome. But I do appreciate an opinion on what I have written about, and not a comment on how well I have written what is written. Thanks.
