It's been a while, how have you all been?
I haven't been able to make a post all this while because of a newly found hobby. But today, i decided to squeeze out some time to make this short post which is in form of a question;

"WHAT DO YOU TRULY WANT? "

This is a question that we all need to ask ourselves this new year, so that we will stop pursuing shadows. Knowing what you truly want will save you the stress of pursuing the wrong thing.

When you ask most people this question today, you will get different kind of answers like; I want a car, I want a house, I want money, I want to become an artist, I want to become an actor/actress, etc

But the problem is that, most people tends to confuse what they need/fancy to what they want.
Its normal to fancy a thing/person because of its beauty, popularity or uniqueness but that doesn't mean that is what you want.

A want, is a desire or a wish, need is a demand or what you require, while fancy is when you would like to take possession of someone/something because of its beauty, uniqueness etc..

Most people will spend almost their entire life trying to get what they think they want, only for them to later find out that, that's not what they truly want. You need to be sure of what you want before pursuing it, so it doesn't end up being a wasted years.

As for me, "WANT "is not something you can see or touch neither is it a career. But something that only you can create for yourself because it has got to do with you(you know yourself better than anyone).

For instance, if you say that your "WANT" is to have a life where you won't be bossed around by people or looked down on, then you should know that you are the only one who can create such live for yourself. And to do so, you need to; walk towards achieving it, be focused, and be ready to make a lot of sacrifices.

Most people tends to think that something's are very easy but later come to realize that it isn't after finding themselves in the same situation which they thought was easy.

#NOTE; Am not trying to confuse anyone, but am just trying to make a point. When you want a thing, you focus on it, and then you walk towards making it a reality

I wish you all a happy and blissful NEW YEAR. (And I also hope you end up finding what you truly want).
