I see some people have an overarching goal that actually stops them from living.
Some want to emigrate to another country so bad, that's all they live for. No matter how long this goal takes they are willing to pause their life for it. Four, five, ten years of planning to travel.
I understand the situation of the country is dire but how on earth are you comfortable saying all you've been doing for the past 4 years is planning to move abroad?
The desperation.
Man, you've got to enjoy life or rather live life. Find another goal that's pretty much within your reach, aim for it. I'm not saying you should abandon your emigration dreams but please don't live everyday of your life for a future that's not given.

When I see folks like that I shudder. People shouldn't be doing that to themselves.

I believe here Seun is talking about people who put life on hold. Like they aren't willing to be happy/enjoy-life until they reach osme horizon. In that case strive for the horizon, but be present in the steps along the way.
I think enjoy may be the wrong word given that reality.
I like Seun's main word he used. To live.
Liife is not about enjoyment or pure happiness. It's more about living it. Good and Bad
