Hello guys, today have been a nice day for me, even if i didn't go out today but i staying in doing what i love doing best, cobbling and i hope you guys too had a great day. We live in a period that could be easily described as a storm. But how do we escape the storm? what can we do about it? what can keep one from being overwhelmed by the storm? I will be telling you what i have learned about the storm and steps i took to see the ray of sunshine after the storm.
The storm
What is a storm? We can say a storm is a change in the weather that brings about heavy rain, wind and thunderstorms. We believe a storm can at times be scary. Same can be said about the condition of things today, it's like a storm, it's scary just looking at the market value of stocks, unemployment, poverty, stress, depression, illness and death, those are the stuffs we see everywhere and sometimes some people just give up and die in this storm. But when a storm come it don't last forever, you just have to keep calm, maybe take some measures and soon the storm is over. Same with the storm like troubles we face everyday. You don't have to give up, there is still hope, you just need three things to survive the storm. What are those three things?
How to survive the storm
Three main things is needed. First is:
*Patience
Imagine you're at a bus station but the bus is later, you got angry, you complained about the bud being late and even called the station. Will it make the bus appear magically? No. The bus will still come when it wants to come or it may not still come, but on the other hand you may have lost your strength and your joy, you lost. Same goes to our daily life, things may not go the way we planned it but relax, wait and maybe you may get a better solution. But you need something to add to your patience, which brings us to .
*Endurance
When your car key falls into a pit and your hand don't fit in, but due to where you want to go, you forced your hand in the pit, it hurts you, your injured but you keep pushing till you get your key, the you tend to your injury. It took pain but you achieved something. Same with our life, we face problems, it hurts but you have to keep pushing, endure the pain, face the pain and use it to achieve your goal and when you don't have much don't try to go for what is not yours. Endure till the storm pass. Now we have patience, endurance and what could be next?
*Self love
Some was asked if he will take a gift of 15 millions dollars, he said yes, sure everyone will take it, but there was a catch, he won't wake up the next day. At that moment he changed his answer to no, why did he say no? Because his life worths more than 15 millions dollar. So value your life, wake up like you're worth more than diamond and don't look down on your existence, you are you, there can't be someone like you again so after a long day, tell yourself you did great. Don't let people tell you what you are, tell yourself what you're going to be. Following this will help you see the rays of sunlight again in your life.
Summary
From a cartoon kung fu panda, i heard this quote: "yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery and today is a gift, that's why it's called present. The quote tells not to let the past draw you back nor the future weigh you down but live in the present, be happy you're alive, it simply means there is hope. So, if you ever feel like giving up, remember a storm is not permanent, the sun will still shine, it's just
a matter time.
Thanks you all for your time, thanks hive. Hope i gave someone the compliment he/she needs for the day.
