As the clock ticks towards the New Year, exhilaration bubbles everywhere like soda water. The craze is all about celebration and 'fun' things to start the year with; that's all good undoubtedly. However, isn't the mere repetition of a banal, momentary moment of joy that fades away quickly and brings about nothing in us ? The year changes, what about us ? Clothes ? New Instagram posts meant to please people we don't like ?
Well, on widening our horizons, we shall think of what refreshes in us as the year changes. Let us cogitate and ponder over how to become better people, which is very much needed. More righteous, more caring, more mature, more pious, more aware. And most importantly, more human. A human that uncoils him/herself from mass media and pervasive social ills of the time that has entangled us. Social, moral, and religious values that are being demoralised. They blindfold us; they wipe off our tears to make us believe we are 'happy' ; they enslave us in the name of freedom. Let's wake up. Let's think about how we can spark off a METAPHYSICAL change rather than materialistic changes that radiate no much significance.
Alright, Alright, I'll stop being so serious. Just a reminder before we cherish and celebrate the coming of 2018.
Let's be good with it, let's welcome 2018 in a manner it deserves by being more human.
DEAR STEEMITIANS OUT THERE, as a tiny member, I'd like to send you many happy returns on the coming of new year. Hope it is a year filled with joy, prosperity, and success for everyone out there.
Enjoy
