Tuesdays with Dr. Fadeni

Stay Grounded! (Another Tuesday)

A new Religion is moving like a tidal wave through every facet of western culture, shaping and redefining societal values as it goes.

It masquerades as wokeness, but at the core of it, it just a new trend for young people who do not believe in anything. Not God, education, family values, morality, keeping good and healthy relationships, or even in themselves.

‘I no owe anybody anything!’ is not being woke. Neither is Daydreaming about stumbling upon stupendous wealth while idling away is not a solution. ‘When I buy my Benz, na woman wey follow me suffer go enter,’ ok then, why not start from somewhere?

You are not pushing new frontiers just by idling away or running around in circles, chasing your own shadow. You need to find an anchor because the storms will come.

It’s wild out there. Yes! but that is why you need to stay grounded. Connect to the core of who you are in the face of these uncertain times, and make the most of your time. The people peddling this pseudo-wokism (‘Problem no dey finish’ e.t.c) to you, won’t be there when real-life situations arise, and you realize just how much you have limited yourself to meet up.

Stay grounded…not woke.
