When the troubles of life knock

I have lived just a few years on this planet Earth, and I must say, life does not get rosy all the time, even for the wealthy. There are times the troubles of life knock us down, and we feel discouraged or unmotivated to pick ourselves up and continue pushing. This is very common, and everyone experiences it. For some, it happens within a short while, while for others, it lasts longer, say days, weeks, or even months, depending on the situation or condition. Pexels
When this kind of thing happens, what I look forward to is a better day ahead because, actually, there are people who have faced this kind of issue, succeeded, and became better in the end.
I have seen people who were beaten and battered by life to the point of considering suicide because it seemed as if life was against them, but in one way or another, they found themselves back on track, picked up their broken parts, and gave life a little push again with maximum determination, and they succeeded in the end. These scenarios keep me going. They give me the assurance that I can never remain in that bad spot when things are not going fine. These scenarios tell me that there is actually light at the end of the tunnel, and for me to reach there, I must not give up, no matter what happens.

One of the things I have come to know about our existence is that no one remains in one spot forever. If someone is seen in a very hard situation, as long as the person keeps hustling with determination, they will surely come out of that situation.

During my school days, I failed a class twice, and I was made to repeat in both cases. During the last one, I felt like giving up because it seemed like education was not for me. But I became determined when I remembered that there were people who passed through my situation, even worse situations, and they summoned courage, repeated, and put in more effort born of determination, and they passed and never failed again. That was it. Ever since I passed that class that year, I have never seen myself fail any class again.

This same thing is what I tell people about marriage too. There are some people who have been depressed about life due to marriage or relationships, and because of that, they develop low self-esteem and believe no one will come for them in marriage again. That is a big lie. As long as the lame, the blind, and people with any kind of deformity are getting married, what makes one think that the glory of marriage has left them? Everyone will get married as long as the person keeps being good. In fact, even the bad get married too, so you see.

Sometimes I know it is hard to see the end from the beginning and get motivated to keep pushing, but it is very much advised.

Thank You!
