I thought about what to write for so long and I came to the conclusion that this one was the best I could have written about. I have had my fair share of pain, adversity and all that bad and uncomfortable stuff life throws at you but I just believe that I have to keep going, keep learning, keep striving for the better and of course, keep growing.
Learn to live with it
It is one skill that is very important for every single living thing on earth, survival. Good things don't just come at your like you have some fairies who grants you wishes, wait, maybe they do, but life would always happen, and you decide how to react to it. I was reading the book by Kevin Hart the other day and he said,
Life happens, and you can choose to cry about it or whatever, I choose to laugh about it.
You won't be surprised I guess, he is one of the funniest men alive. Life would happen, things would go against your plan, but you decide how to react to it. Where I live, there has been a famous slang which prompted me to even think and apparently write about this topic, it goes "Life no balance". Its in a local language in Nigeria called pidgin English. It made me think and realize at the same time that life isn't fair, or should I say, balanced, Lol. You have to learn to live with this things and strive for the best for your self, aim for your goal, be determined, focused, bla, bla, bla.
I am guessing your next question would be, "how do I live with it and all". You just have to channel that energy, that pain, that anger. When you realize how painful tooth removal is, you won't take so much ice cream. Okay, that was probably a bad example but you get my point. I stumbled on a video online recently and I saw a man talk about how bad life was for him as a kid, how poor he was, but he became rich because he got angry, with poverty I mean, haha. He says, "anger is God's gift to us humans". He got angry and vowed that he won't be poor and started working. He channeled not only the anger but also the pain of suffering and turned it into good fortune. A famous rapper once said,
This is probably my beginning of #500wordsaday challenge. I don't know how long I can keep it up. I also didn't write my best, I just thought about it and boom. Tell me what you think though. Oh, and by the way, I made this badass graphics, 😎.
I turned my misfortune into a fortune.
The graphics already says everything for this final part. Live your best, laugh, love, learn, grow. Realize that life isn't going to revolve around you and that you are not always going to get what you want and that's okay. Get a grip of you self you entitle little prick. I know, that final part wasn't necessary, hahaha, I just felt like saying it anyways. Be happy. don't let anyone or anything take away your happiness. Don't be grumpy old Ebenezer scrooge, nobody wants that person around.
