All of us reach a certain point in life where everything seems to turn out bad. Nothing seems to come according to plan. Everyday is just striving to survive. Each day gets harder and harder. If you're in this stage of life right now, I want to encourage you!
Everything that we are going through, every situation that we are in. It has an expiration date! It doesn't last forever. It may seem it is forever but that is because of our impatient nature.
When we look at our past experiences and struggles from a bird's a view, we can see that it's just phases. If we talk about a struggle we just went through, most of the time we talk about it for hours. Maybe even days! But as time goes by, we talk about the same experience and we just use one or two paragraphs. As years pass, we talk about the same experience and we can fit everything in just one sentence.
Everything we go through, good or bad, becomes a part of us. It either makes us more mature or more bitter. It will make us stronger or weaker. Like the rough waters, it can make us a skilled sailor or have Thalassophobia (Fear of the Ocean).
Would you decide to learn from the circumstances you are in today? I'm not saying it's easy.. but I hope you will choose to press on and fight the good fight. And as you conquer the situation you're in today, look around and help those people around you who are in the same situation or maybe even worse than yours!
