It is really a pleasure to partake in this 29th week prompt, which really has to focus on the challenges and the breakthrough I have encountered so far in life in order to navigate for a possible means of getting that breakthrough that is nowhere to be found easily, but one thing that makes it up and down is that life is never a bed of roses where things are already made; there must be an effort and determination that leads and makes the ups for me while I face the downs, which is challenging that outweighing.
My own reflection is identical to me and not the same to every other person's out there, based on what I have seen and what I have come through. Victory has been full of moments of challenges and success, which crowns it all with my experience so far. Therefore, at times I am in the midst of confusion where I am incapacitated to initiate ideas, but at some point, and lucky for me, someone leads me. Where does it come from? I don't know, but it is just by what I am building, which you will later know at the end of this post.
But ever since, I have grown to understand the good and the bad. I have come to realise that the life I am living is more of a rising ocean which still falls by its tides, which has enlightened me that things are not as straightforward as you think or feel as you have seen them. There is always a bridge of connection, giving the ups and downs I have been through which have been the experiences that have made me today, that enlighten and advise others on the possible things to do at the right time.
Having gone to the higher institution and served my father's land and passed out as a Corp member just 3 weeks ago not only reminds me of my achievements but also the experience that has come through the hurdles I have been through. Being alone, a man training himself in school, I can attest to the challenges, which tells me to tell you what the condition can be: having divided attention and having sleepless nights while others are sleeping just to make sure that problems are solved, because funny enough, no one can actually ask you how to solve your problem; rather, I am the only one to ask myself that question just to be free from burdens, which are quite challenging.
Have you ever experienced taking yourself to an unconducive environment, remaining in a posture that stresses stars out of your eyes? That is the exact condition that I have been through queuing just to fulfil obligations while in school. That is the reason that I do tell some people that it is never easy for any man; even when you have made the money, there are other upgraded challenges operating at that level. But despite all this, I still see the challenges I face as a way of building my strength that enables me to overcome tomorrow's challenge, because the truth is that if I can't overcome today's ups and downs, I won't be able to live to challenge tomorrow.
For me it is not all about the ups and downs but seeing them as encouragement which refills me with the victory of my past which I have been through, but one thing I fail not to understand is that I embrace the ups and downs since they are something inevitable which I navigate my route off from, but one thing you have to understand based on my experience is that when you resist it, you are doing more harm than good to yourself, which I am never afraid of. which gives me the ups of lasting for the next.
Sometimes I do tell myself when you don't have money, it literally means you are sick aside from the physical sickness, which is part of my ups and downs in life. In life there is a need for money. It is true that money does not answer all things, but almost because with money, 80% of my burdens are routed to escape for the next challenge. Honestly, the solid foundation I have today has been as a result of the ups and downs, which have been able to strengthen me. Even when I am stuck in the midst of confusion, my laid foundation decides for me correctly.
Haven't gone through a lot, which I can't mention all here, but ultimately I have come to realise that this life needs you embracing failure and success; these are the two things that can keep one going with endurance, anticipating that tomorrow will be better. The only thing I do is to dedicate myself to resilience and to learn. So be it, up or down, I remain the masterpiece of my future tomorrow.
NOTE: ALL IMAGE IS MINE.
