Hello there guys. There's often this negative vibes that comes from a feeling of being entitled. In this video, I discuss about the reason for default sense of entitlement and how it relates to our powerlessness in done certain choices we have in life. I discussed how vital this can be in the basic relationship we have with ourselves, our lives and the Society, race or culture we are born into.

This is interesting and I grabbed everything you have said. While listening, I remembered the story of an Aunt where she narrated her past experience. She said she needed to pay her school fees and while she told her Father, the man couldn't afford it and she asked "Dad, when you know you can't take care of me, why did you bring me to life?" This question touched the man but I believe the man didn't have control over his situation then and no one can blame anyone except if we aren't taking steps to move out of such life.
Yes, we all want life to be automatically good to us, we want to be entitled to everything because we think we didn't beg our parents to bring us to life, but we are here now, all we have to do is to allow our consciousness to be awaken and realize reality itself is cruel and good most times and we need to accept that fact. No one wants to be poor and strive to survive, but since life has dealt with us and do not have control over it, we only need to see things in different perspective and embrace life as it is, then we should take actions.
I can relate to the experience of your aunt there. The truth is that we can never blame ourselves for having that sense of entitlement. When we are not responsible for our choices then the least we can hope for is that these choices favours us. So many people have been bereft of good things in life and one of the reasons why it is more saddening is because we didn't choose to be breft and lacking of all the good things of life.
But like you have said sometimes we'll let her pain derived from the sense of entitlement to blind us from the fact that it is an unforgettable experience to actually exist, thrive and feel the beauty of being alive.
The world is filled with too many sad occurrences. People who are stigmatized and others because of their conditions and these conditions are not actually of their own making. We cannot be strong at all times because it's okay to be weak and pained when we don't get everything we deserve from life.
Thanks for your brilliant comment. 🔥
Omooo you really burst my head here.
If I may add, there is this popular saying that when life gives you lemons, make lemonades.
As you said, since we didn’t choose where to be born or which family we should be born to, that shouldn’t be the cause of our downfall. I know people that used their environment to bring themselves out of situations. People from poor backgrounds getting rich and even those from riches ending up poor.
This is where choices come from. Make the right choices to get the right results.
DON’T LET YOUR BACKGROUND PUT YOUR BACK ON THE GROUND
This is absolutely true but many people don't even know how to begin to make these lemonades. They're too encapsulated with what they don't have, they actually begin to lose the essence of living. We're not totally autonomous in our choices, especially since we cannot create ourselves. But then, anyone who is born is privileged to witness the beauty of being alive and this alone is something we can bask on in our times of troubles. Thanks for stopping by bro.
Omo boss you wan use English scatter my head.
Let me end with this....
“Ones there’s life, there is surely hope “
Thanks for this piece
😅, no now, I no speak grammar, Na the way e be na.
Thanks for watching bro, hope your side day okay?
It is a lucky day I guess I could watch the video. Otherwise my sweet network is quite lazy 🙄
I remind me of a quote, "it is not your fault if you are born poor, however it is your fault if you die poor."
There came a time in my life when I developed so many complaints for being in the wrong circumstances. This mindset only worsened my mental and physical condition. I felt more lack of control.
What I have realized with time There are certain things in life that are not in our control, but there are many things that are in our control. But a preoccupation with those that we can't change snatches from us the opportunity to bring betterment in many other.
Some people would like to control or rule their destiny, predetermine their existence and this is always because, life turned out differently, in ways we can't even begin to fathom. When people experience bad luck, they question the reasons for their existence. Most times, this is determinant on how well or how badly the life of a person eventually turns out. We cannot even begin to fathom.
Thanks for dropping by and watching.
Everything doesn't always turn out according to our desires. There is a saying of a MUSLIM scholar. "I recognized the existence of God by the failures of my will."

I believe questions do occur like that sometime especially when facing hard times and challenges in life which sometimes looks unbearable to bear and this has sometimes make some people regret to be born to a particular family because of the sufferings they are going through. But the truth be told we are definitely born for a reason which we may not throughly know why but the heavenly father knows which is why it is sometimes good to challenge yourself to overcome hardtimes to achieve positive results and also to try to be greater than what your family didn't achieve to surpass such scenario, that definitely will keep one motive to eradicate the such hard situation in life.
This is a very beautiful message and one that we should repeat as often as possible. Our circumstances don't define us, we have the power to manifest things, so if we're going through a rough patch and feel like life is being unfair, we should really ponder why we're we having the experience we're having. There are teachings in all things, in all peoples, places and trades. Circumstance is like the book and its letters, we can't change the book, only read it, and in order to really read them, that is, to understand the message that it's imparting us and integrate it into our awareness, we must first accept the book's existence, no fuss, just realize that, yeah, this is the world and this is what's happening and there's nothing we can do about it, but we can definitely do something about how we approach it. We can resist or we can let go.
Surrendering to the Flow of Creation is difficult, scary. But once we start doing it willingly, thankfully, we begin to realize just how well-designed and supportive this Universe is, and that gives us a different perspective on our story, even our traumas, hatreds and regrets. There's Love all around and within us, but we can't put conditions on it and receive it in full at the same time. We can't have our cake and eat it too, we have to give.
