PERMIT ME TO LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOU

  Hi, I’m Sam ,   I want to thank the official and unofficial content creators who take pride, care, and joy in capturing and sharing moments on social media. It’s one thing to capture moments either for personal use or public consumption or for both and it’s another thing to share it. My perfect evening is lying on a soft bed or sofa in a very unusual but very comfortable position scrolling through Instagram or X and Tiktok (I'm still trying to get used to tiktok though) and taking in all the funny, beautiful, educational content on social media and honestly scrolling through social media might seem like a waste of time for a lot of people but it helps me be creative and fine-tune my creative ideas.    I think there are different ways we can choose to look at life; some may believe that life is slow for them because they've not gotten to the stage where they would like to do certain things but unfortunately, they can't do those things, other might think that...

THE REAL ME

Hi, I’m Sam , When it comes to opening up to people, I follow my instincts to trust so easily and I've never been burnt from that which is why I think I still do it. I don't think there is anything about or in my life at this moment that at least 2 persons are unaware of. My circle is pretty tight but not everyone in my circle knows absolutely everything.

  Hi, I’m Sam,   We count it all joy and a blessing when we wake up each morning, and each morning comes with the absolute undiluted feeling of a new beginning, a fresh and can-do spirit. As the days continue, knowingly or unknowingly we are open to creating and maintaining relationships with people in different areas of our lives; it may be our neighbors, a familiar taxi man, an attendant or owner of the store we frequent, our colleagues, the roadside seller who tries to convince us to buy what we clearly do not need, our relatives, etc. The chances of increasing the closeness or distance we might have with any of these people increases with each day we come in contact with them and as such we unknowingly decide what extent we can go for them. We can be having a not-so-good morning and still choose to politely decline to buy what we clearly do not need no matter how persuasive the seller might be, we just unconsciously decide what extent to go not to ruin the relationship...
