What is life and living

Life we know is in stages, after one stage comes another, life and living is continuous we pass through it in phases. Nothing is static in life, even our insatiable human wants leaves us with the desire for more at all times that spurs our diversifications.

 Life is very progressive and if you are not moving with the times and seasons you will encounter difficulties continuing.

Everyone has problems in life; those who always stay happy are the ones who don't let their problems take over their smile. I remember the struggles I endured to train myself in the university, it was as though there wouldn't be light at the end of the tunnel but I persevered. Several nights I cried myself to sleep when no help was forth coming, I battled depression, lack of finance and academic stress. It still surprises me how I showed up everyday a much stronger and determined person despite my worries. I always look my best and smile through the pains. You can't look at me and tell of my troubles because I don't look like it. When I narrated my story to few of my course mates in our finals, they were in awe as to how I pulled through it all.

We all have different ways of dealing with our problems. Some people use it as a reason to feel sad and miserable, and some look beyond it, and remain positive and hopeful. I am one who look beyond the "now moment" to the future I hope for. I have a way I navigate through the present in hope for the future, that brings me consolation instead of pains. I know hard times won't last a life time, it's a phase that will soon pass so I hold unto the day I will look and see it no more.

Sometimes, we see people who are happy and cheerful. We think their life is complete, problem-free and perfect. We don't know their entire life story, struggles, problems and pain they might have endured or currently going through.

Don't make your life miserable by looking at people who are happy. There is no one without a fair share of life's struggles. Everyone is struggling with something; it's your choice whether you want to regret it or just smile through it.
One attitude shift has changed my life tremendously:
Remaining calm and composed when life is working against me, so I can respond to my emotions with clarity and lean toward solutions that upgrade my reality.

When you see people with what they prayed for, be inspired rather than envious. We will never understand the extent of their hustle: the tears cried in silence, the setbacks, the patience, and the number of times they came close to giving up. Their journey is not ours to judge.
You made it through a tough year. Maybe you haven’t achieved all your goals, and life isn’t exactly as you hoped. Still, acknowledge the effort it took to reach this point, and all the things you’ve accomplished.

At the end of our lives we will have nothing to take with us, but those who love us will be able to remember us and our legacy by remembering how much of a blessing that we were to them in their lifetime.
