Life has an ebb and flow that moves very much like the cycles of seasons.
Accepting the whole package of the life experience is our first journey in embracing Hope in our lives.
Part of the journey of life are the unpredictable highs and lows. Embracing this knowledge provides us with a stronghold of assurance that in the paradox of life lies the constant of ups and downs.
Knowing that there will be lows allows us to practice how to handle them when they arrive. In the end what we hold are the memories and the experiences of the highs and lows.
How many times have you started something only to give up? What if you were few steps away from reaching your goals? What if you were few days away from getting what you wanted?
Sometimes we give up right before we are about to savor victory. Sometimes we only need to keep standing for few more days before our lives can change to the better.
This is why you should never lose hope in life!!
It’s like the story of the Bamboo:
The bamboo when planted will take 4-5 years before it surfaces the ground. Because you do not see it growing should you not care to tend the earth and water the soil?
It had spent five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to survive.
Life will not present you with a challenge you could not handle.
Those who lack patience would say that bamboo trees are difficult to grow. Not because they require extra consideration but because you have to water them for years without seeing any results. In the first few years a bamboo tree grows few centimeters above the ground then in the fourth year it shoots up exceeding the height of all other trees.
Aren’t your dreams and aspirations worth believing in?
In order to reach what you want in life you have to be patient and persistent… be willing to go through the challenges, learn from the mistakes and enjoy the journey.
Daisy Says: Never give up and never lose hope.
