IF THE RESPONSIBILITIES COULD GO AWAY

When I read the prompt, the first thing that came to my head was to write about making the whole responsibility of being an adult go away. I thought about it again and realized that wasn't really what I wanted. Trust me, being an adult comes with so much responsibilities and to be honest, they get tiring at times. The whole concept of adulthood can actually pass as a responsibility at times. However, it is a good responsibility and not something one should run away from. Breaks could help though! It can actually be a lot.

Speaking for myself, I don't even think I have seen half of what adulthood shows a person, despite seeing a lot already. I mean, I am still leaving with my parents and there are some major things I need not to worry about. However, it comes at a cost, which I am cool with but some other times, I just wish I didn't have that responsibility--house Chores. Trust me, I know it's quite normal to do and I am not trying to be lazy. My point is just that it can be a lot sometimes and being the only female child and last born, there is definitely no escape from those chores.

There is always so much to do in a day and I end up tired and frustrated many times. I don't even get to do some of my personal tasks before getting worn out for the day. To be very honest, not all days are like that, but I would very much love for the responsibility to just go away please. I wish I could just maybe pay someone to get it done without me having to stress myself in any way. I do love doing chores when it starts to get too much, I do get tired. I love soft life please😂💔

If I were living alone, I know I wont do as much chores. I will be the only person moving stuffs around and cooking will not be everytime, I don't even eat like that. Plus, I will just try to minimize the stress as much as I can since I will be the one deciding the things I want to do. Unlike at home, where I alwsys have to follow the rules and instructions laid down.


There was this time I fell sick like thrice in just a month when I was at home and it is due to stress. I was just trying to be a responsible child and daughter, lol. I would even do things I wasn't told to do. Lately though, I tend to not put myself in that state anymore, I just do what I can do for the day and shift the rest to the next day. I also have various classes I am taking online and various personal tasks I have to tend to. Sooner or later, I will have to find my way fully to the outside world and it's only reasonable I prepare for it. Being relieved of my numerous house chores will give me so much time on my hands and that will be channeled to meet up with other personal things

Thanks for reading ❤️

Being an adult is really hard, I can relate.
I also have to do all the chores in the house coz right now I'm the youngest 😂

Sometimes you just need to sit back coz this adulthood journey isn't easy at all

It is not o, may God help us.

I said it before, these girl ehn you too love soft life😅😅😅

But then again, if wishes were true? They say... Sometimes, i too wished for a life where i could just wake at anytime with food.. Wifi and all round enjoyment.. Before you know it, am already tired of sitting at one spot and then missing work back..
So i believe responsibility tells differently for people

I may not be able to relate, but I can feel you. When this house chores becomes continuous, taking most part of your time and less of the things you want to do for yourself, at some point you begin to feel like a servant, but this time, not paid to do the things you do.

Life is like a phase, you will soon pass through this phase and head on to the next phase. Just prepare yourself and be ready for it.
