PMA
No, not Post Menstrual Aggro (You know that horny feeling you girls get after your monthly bloody crusade).
I remember like yesterday, some few years back when I had serious issues/situations to deal with. I just started becoming independent, quite younger and with no one to depend on (My bad actually, 'cos I love my independence, and I love getting things done - myself). No regrets, I was wired that way. Anyways, during those period, I was in a deep shit. With no money, and a proper shelter (I just wanted to be alone from all what I regard as wahala - rules & sh?t. I just wanted to make it on my own - yes selfish, but I was positive), I was funked up!
But one thing that stood by me all through these times, aside the fact that some unseen forces dem dey kampe for my behind and forward, was my power of positive imagination and fantasies. Regardless of my issues, I kept a positive mental attitude. Yes, as tough as things were, I was positive. I was perhaps against some ef'd up odds, yet my fantasies kept me safe from the reality that was before me.
I proceed from one level to the next, and proceeded and still proceeding... Most people will perhaps just accept it as it is/was and bitch about every thing under the seen and unseen beautiful stars, but I held on to my fantasy like a live line on "who wants to be a millionaire" .
One advice I can share with anyone is, regardless of the situation (like someone said, there are no problems, just situations...) is, keep it positive. I usually use this as a case study: Imagine you are trapped on a deserted Island. If you sit by the shores and wail like Bob Marley and the wailers, you will spend the rest of your miserable existence high on frustration. But if you wander (like I wander in my own fantasy), there is a huge chance that you'll stumble on materials to build a raft, gather food, and sail away to civilization. Or imagine you find yourself a safe with diamonds as its content with a dial lock. If you keep staring at the funker without doing anything, the funker will stare back at ya. But since you have nothing to loose, you can keep tossing those numbers and somehow someway, the ef'er will sha open.
It will cost you nothing to dream or fantasize. But always take a peep at reality to see where you can lay the blueprint of your fantasies on the platform of "known reality". Regardless of the jam you find yourself, imagine positive things, and somehow you shall be paid for your efforts. Life only gives to those who give onto it. And Live thrives on our ability to conceptualize, to dream, to fantasize. Everything you know or believe in comes from a concept, dream, or fantasy. From you - (your papa and mama fantasy is the result of the yanshing wey produce you, and Life responded by give you... life!) - to that cute shoe or jeans you've got.
Sometimes it seem crazy, but never be negative, and you'd be surprise what you'll find... Good luck while you dream, but take it from a man who knows, dreamland is vast, and there is a chance you'll get lost.
Stay positive!
