WHY AWAYS ME?!

Have you ever asked yourself the question WHY ALWAYS ME? or better still WHY ME?.

The saying “Why always me” is associated and made popular by Mario Ballotelli, just in case you’re wondering who he is, I would love to do a quick introduction. Mario Ballotelli is an Italian football prodigy. At just age 21 he has played in two top flight clubs in Europe, winning the award for European best young footballer for last season. Although he is a player with an amazing talent, yet he looks gloomy at all times even when he scores, he rarely ever smiles and the statement he always says instead of jubilating when he scores is why always me. His behavior has cost is team to lose several times as he is hot tempered and receives a lot of red card which result in sending off and making his team one man short.

A lot of us are just like Mario, as we often ask the question “Why always me?” or just like D’Banj (Oyebanji Dapo) we ask “Why Me?” We ask these questions in a lot of ways, while some of us are vocal with it; some others rather prefer to show it forth in their facial expression and other wise.

At one point or the other in our lives it is possible that we have asked ourselves this question. Asking the question is not the real problem rather the real problem is choosing to ask the question at all times and asking ourselves as if we have been singled out to face situations that are unfavorable.

If you are one of those that ask the above question, I have good news for you because I have an answer to your question and that would help you move on and stop asking the question. The reason why it’s always you is because you have chosen to perceive yourself as a victim of circumstance more often than not you act as though nature, God and everyone around you is the reason for your present predicament and that you do not have a choice over the outcome.

Rara o…!

It is important that I state that whatever you going through now is not new under the heavens and that other people have gone through it or are also going through similar challenges or worse, it’s just that they have chosen not to make theirs conspicuous or carry a makeup of mournful look on their face at all time as if the responsibility of the whole world is on their shoulder.

The key to overcoming gloominess and whatever challenges that you are facing is that you should understand that the affliction or situation that you’re going through is just for a while and that it is meant to elevate you as oppose to creating a demotion.

There is no gain without pain they say, the choices that we make when we go through certain things and the approach that we have to them determine whether all will be well or not. No matter what you’re going through always keep a positive affirmation and believe that all things work together for your good.

Cheer up and rejoice at all times, again I say rejoice. Keep a merry heart; a merry heart doeth good like a medicine, but a broken spirit drieth the bones. A merry heart is good for your health; remember that as a man thinketh in his heart so is he.
