    Wow! Thank you for sending me a special shout-out. I really appreciate it. African immigrants are focused on work, work, and work with no breaks. We need to learn from our Western counterparts about how they live their lives.

    I read a report sometime ago that about 72% of black adults in the UK were either overweight or living with obesity.Similar findings are well known in the USA and l wouldn't be surprised that it's a similar issue in other countries overseas.
    What could be the reasons because l don't think many are overworking themselves and neglecting their own health?

      Unhealthy eating habits. As a result of overworking, most of them don't have time to prioritise their eating habits and hence subscribe to junk food.
      Others may be experiencing subtle signs of depression and yet again others may just be genetically predisposed coupled with chronic stress as a contributing factor.

    • @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom
      @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom  Місяць тому

      That is due to bad eating habits, too much sugar, fat, and junk food. Thanks for watching!

    Thank you for raaking this important topic. Materialism and Western Values are kiling us and destroying our culture and tradition. We in the Diaspora have lost ourselves.

      True. Hopefully, we can find ourselves again. Thanks for watching!

    Bad food is an even bigger problem.

    • @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom
      @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom  Місяць тому

      That is true. Especially when you combine overwork with bad food. Thanks for watching!

    It’s ok to work hard and that may mean 2 jobs. However, it’s not sustainable for a long period. Once you get to a certain position/ age, it’s better to work harder on one job / business and have a “balanced” life.

    • @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom
      @ThisSideOfLifeWisdom  Місяць тому

      I agree. There are times when working multiple jobs is expedient, but some people don't know when to stop or get addicted to it, and the adverse effect does get worse with age. I appreciate your insight. Thanks for watching!

    Jesus is coming back. Are you born again? If not, secure your eternity today. You do not have to go to hell. Jesus paid the price for all your sins. If you want to be born again Say the following prayer but you also have to believe it:
    Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins that you was buried and rose from the dead the third day. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior.
