BEYOND A PERFECT FIT

"Can" = "Should"

By Uchenna Igboanugo Published about a year ago โ€ข 1 min read


As the world continually tend towards making a natural selection, based on preferences, affiliations and more, a need for acceptance into a circle gets on the increase.

To avoid being alone (which is also dangerous), many have either forcefully or consensually formed an ally with those they shouldn't have ever considered for such.

This very error has brought down many relationships, businesses, political, as well as academic aspirations, and even lives.

That there is a vacancy, and you need one to fit in, doesn't mean you should.

To every vacant space, there's a specific thing meant to fill it. Don't just get into one because you feel you can fit in.

Hear me...
Not all perfect fits are right fits.

No matter how long the plastic can remains fitted to the lamp holder, it can never perform the function of a bulb, and thus would defy the essence of the lamp holder and itself.

Likewise, for the lamp holder to accept it because there is no available bulb in sight is not an excuse, and thus can never meet the demands thereof.

Beyond fitting in perfectly, ensure that you fit in rightly. For only then can your true potential be put to use.
