The strive for a better life

Life can be best enjoyed when living the best life.

The strive for a better life is one thing every human would want to have for themselves and their loved ones. No one wants to live a life not worth living. A life filled with chaos and disaster isn't anyone's prayer, so we tend to look out for any possible means to get our desired better lives. We look overall it will take for us to achieve and experience our best view or decision of life, we then go all out to seeing our dreams and aspirations fulfilled.

Sometimes we cannot but wonder why this is so, we wonder why after getting what we want from life, we aspire to get a more and comfortable version of it from what we have had or experienced and this beleieve is just because that's the way we are wired. But then we can't blame anyone for aspiring or wanting to have a better life because it's inbuilt.

There are a plethora of ways by which humans strive to achieve a better life, from getting a better job to migrating from one place to another, learning new skills and techniques, self-development, and many more.

I would like to talk about the most trending of it all which is the migration of people from one country to another. Over the past years, statistics have shown that the rate and influx of people migrating from a different country (underdeveloped country) to another (developing/developed country) keeps on rising year after year. People who reside in underdeveloped or developing countries strive every day to get a better life for themselves and the only way is by migrating to a more enabling country of their choice. All developed embassies are now filled with a high rate of applicants and applications of several individuals from different works and walks of life. It is however so surprising to see the well-to-do(upper & middle class) people of such countries also trying to migrate to another country of their choice. The right to a better life is to be enjoyed and embraced by everyone. Take for instance Nigeria as a developing country, Nigeria has a country has experienced an alarming rate of outflow of her citizens migrating into other countries, closer neighboring countries as well. The United States embassy at the busiest state in the country experiences and deals with thousands of applications and appearances every single week. The more they get denied their visas the more they apply, you will be surprised to see someone who just got denied a month ago reapply, hoping to get a favorable decision.

Asides from the US embassy in the state, there are lots of other embassies that also experience such a great influx of people. The UK embassy is also a place you'll find people standing outside the gates as early as 6 AM in the morning.

Getting a better life is a must for every individual and citizen of different countries. We must give and make it our topmost priority to achieve this, do not be complacent with where you are, you can enjoy, and experience a better version of life only if you are willing to see outside your close environment. Never doubt yourself or see it as impossible, because, it doesn't really matter if your choice of a better life is by migrating to another country, getting new skills and techniques, or getting additional jobs and a raise in pay, all i am saying is you should do what is best for you whenever the thought of having a better or best life for yourself and loved ones come always embrace it.
