"In life we face many different obstacles and challenges within ourselves. Some are different than others and some are the same. What I've learned is everybody has a battle. In order to win YOU have to fight. Fear of the unknown is a human feeling. Not knowing whether that battle you'll win or you will lose, always know determination is key. The dictionary defines "determination" as a quality that makes you continue trying to do or try to achieve something different. You have to be determined to win this battle no matter how hard life may seem to be. In the end, the battle you are fighting will look so easy. You're going to smile and realize life isn't so hard after all, God is putting you to a test to see if you will fail or will you ace it. God is preparing you to see if you can handle the bigger battles life brings. In life you will deal with a lot of obstacles, some are going to be easy, some will be hard. What you do with those battles is decide to never quit. There will be trials you will think is never going to get better. Be mindful that time takes care of many things. Life requires patience with the willingness to simply wait. Every question we all ask, " Will it be worth it?" Oftentimes the desire to quit and throw in the towel of defeat seems to be our only answer. Every test is a part of your testimony. Your resolve must be strong enough to handle the burden. The challenge is never as bad as it seems, my guarantee to you. Life requires you to learn new lessons by experience. God's preparing you so you can be well enabled to adapt. Every problem or obstacle you've faced, has been presented to you for the purpose of teaching life lessons that will allow you to be greater. Have clarity of thought as you progress forward along your journey towards the attainment of your goals and objectives. Know who you are with assured confidence.
Trust me, I know I've been there before. It took me almost seventeen years (now I'm eighteen) of my life to understand. In order to win you must be willing to fight. The other lesson; is knowing that it's going to take as long to repair any situation, almost or possibly double, the time it took to get there. For me, I endured many long days and nights uncertain, filled with tears but still fighting. Determination to stay the journey for my peace and finding myself eventually. I almost surrendered to hope because I thought it was all just a fairytale. A fairytale I could not see. I cried and cried because I couldn't understand why my life was not where I wanted it to be. I remembered the wise words once told, " Bend but refuse to break!" Today, the realization of being a quitter exists no more. But without that lesson, there would be no blog to share, no joyous smiles to wear and the meaning of a true warrior would not be as clear. One morning sitting on my bed and I told myself "This isn't you!" What I meant by that was I am not a failure, I am not a quitter. It took me several years to arise from my bed and say, "this will be my last day to except defeat." I didn't care how long it took for me to shake this pain from me . Shake the demons that I had been feeling inside, out of my mind and off of my body. I say this to say to you, "Life is a gamble. It is not about who arrives at their destination first, be determined to simply get there. It's all about winning. Never about quitting or giving up." Quitting is for the weak and you, are strong. Wisdom has taught me that if my tomorrow comes, it is a chance to make my today better!
