Daily Celestial Challenge : Lovebeautyfreedom
So this is my second post in relations to the #celestialchallenge created by @sirknight,in today’s theme “LOVEBEAUTYFREEDOM”, I will be writing really of the top of my head......hope you enjoy it.......
Am live in a considerably small town in Nigeria and where am from..... Is a town almost devoid of freedom...... Freedom of/from a lotta things really.... Take for example... I was coming home from school the other day and i was stopped by some men of the uniform (police) ,they asked me who i was..... Told them i was a student and i was heading home.... And almost immediately one of the men shoved his hands in my pocket and pulled out my phone and stated going through it.... Without my consent or a warrant presented..... While i was about to resist the inhumane treatment ....the chief told me that if i do not cooperate they would take me to prison or something.... And they then asked me if i had a laptop in my bag... Told them yes.... And the automatically confiscated it and asked me what i was doing with a laptop.... I could barely answer because i was bewildered at the questions they asked me in this 21st century and the way these men of the law.... That are supposed to protect me were mistreating me..... All because i am not wealthy or powerful to make them respect me.... Long story short.... I had to endure the humiliation and even beg before the let me go...... #policebrutality..... Yes it happens in more places than in the united states..... We are not allowed to air our views and opinions.. And even when we do... It is ignored, brushed aside and not even debated...... You can even get killed for talking too much....... #fact..... Freedom if movement.... U better watch your back on this one.... The security is in the negative side of the number scale........
After all of this.. How can we love when there is no freedom..... LOVE.... Lol.... Its a phenomenon that many people around here never understand or even get to feel until they fizzle out of existence here..... Most people around me are living in something i like to call "SURVIVAL MODE"......its when one does everything and anything necessary just to stay alive.....and in this mode... Your mind process information differently from a normal free individual..... Cos all you wanna do is oust whoever you encounter all through your life....
And that's something that that makes appreciating beauty..... True beauty.. The kind that resides inside a person extremely difficult here..... The kinda beauty that makes a person look out for his neighbour..... The kinda beauty that makes you see the light and good in every situation.... The kinda beauty that always makes a person radiant with smiles and goodwill..... That kinda stuff.......
Anyways..... I still have faithful tho... That a miracle is on the way that will turn everything from what going on right now to the best possible situation..... And i urge everyone reading this to never relent i. Spreading love whenever you can...... Cos that only when we are indeed free..... When we love...... And its only in freedom we can understand and appreciate the beauty that resides in everyone and everything..........
Have a great day y'all.
