Helping people is a gamble.
A few will be grateful and remember you for life.
Many will ride on like you only existed for that moment.
Need has a way of making people humble temporarily.
People will come to you when life has cornered them... cry... beg... make promises from a place of desperation.
But once life gives them space again, they can make you question yourself. Painting your kindness as foolishness.
But that is life…
We become bridges in people’s lives, and they will cross through your sacrifice, your support, your love, your presence…
And after crossing, it's Au revoir.
Painful, yes...
But understand this, being good is not a business where every investment brings profit. Even your good can K.I.L.L you...
So be GAMBLE AWARE.
Build yourself to be ready for the worst type of pain… because it will come and surviving it depends on how you build your emotional and mental strength today.
We all have a story... The weakest and most used version of me came when I practiced forgiveness without boundaries.
That movie you people are glossing over, the one that has 90% South Africans in it - I'm not watching it.
I'm definitely inconsequential but that's my own silent protest.
I would rather spend that time watching Okonta's stinkerfest at Kebab league.
Learn to hold a grudge.
Expect surprise from anybody, including those you think can’t surprise you.
Switching is real.
Never build your life on assumptions.
People change when their interests change.
People change when your position changes.
90% of the time, these people were part of you... friends, family, people you once defended with your whole chest.
Time reveals what emotions hide. And that is life bringing you back to the drawing board to:
1. Learn who to tell your plans.
2. Learn who to celebrate with.
3. Learn who to keep at a distance.
The goal is to become aware.
Have a good heart, but don’t be careless with it.
Anybody can surprise you... Both the quiet ones, the close ones, the old ones, including the ones who promised they never would.
So stay awake...
And when this hits you, keep these 3 things in mind:
1. Adjust your access.
2. Protect your peace.
3. Keep climbing.
Life will not stop because of your pain, or grief... So by every means, you must keep finding your way, even when life is lifing you.
@Lexybabs Chinua Achebe said; when a rich man is sick, the poor comes to sympathize. When a poor man is sick, he recovers and later goes to tell the rich that he was sick.
Know the difference!
This is free advice from an expensive psychologist. If you’re an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don’t make everything a matter of life and death.
Everybody needs to calm down!!
It wasn't only ceraVe.
The CeraVe lawsuit is a complaint filed against L'Oréal, over claims about certain acne products containing benzoyl peroxide:
1. Acne Foaming Cream Cleanser
2. Acne Foaming Cream Wash
Your regular CeraVe moisturizers, hydrating cleansers, sunscreens and lotions are completely unaffected by these allegations
Benzoyl peroxide is a common acne-fighting ingredient.
Under certain conditions, such as exposure to heat over time, benzoyl peroxide can break down and potentially form benzene.
Benzene is a chemical that, at high levels and prolonged exposure, has been linked to health risks, including certain cancers.
Independent testing by a laboratory called Valisure claimed that some benzoyl peroxide acne products from various brands, including CeraVe, contained or could generate concerning levels of benzene.
Following these claims, lawsuits were filed alleging that consumers were not adequately informed about the potential risks.
It is not claiming that everyone who used CeraVe products was harmed or claiming that CeraVe intentionally added benzene to its products.
It wasn't even only CeraVe.
The benzene controversy involved multiple brands that use benzoyl peroxide, including products from:
CeraVe
PanOxyl
Neutrogena
Clinique
Clearasil
CeraVe received a lot of attention because it's one of the most popular skincare brands, not a problem unique to CeraVe.
