What I've learned in space of the year
Source
Hi, welcome to my blog
The journey of 365 days is not easy at all ,passing through so many challenges and many more is just the grace of God ,I wouldn't lie .
To be sincere there are days that I really feel I should run away from home and find a place where there is no stress but the truth is that there is not place on earth that doesn't carry its own challenges
Getting through the past year has not been easy. There were many tough days and challenges. I sometimes felt like running away to escape the stress. But I know there is no place with no problems.
Every day brought new difficulties. Sometimes things seemed too hard. I wondered how I would make it another day. But somehow, with effort and God's grace, I made it through another day. Then another and another.
Now 365 days have passed. I can look back with pride for facing difficulties. I learned I am stronger than I believed. Even very bad times did not defeat me. There is comfort knowing I made it through the hard year.
The next year will probably bring more challenges. But now I know I can handle them. With God's help and my willpower, I will make it through the next 365 days too. I will encourage others struggling. It is possible to endure and grow stronger. You just have to face each new day as it comes.
Here is another 829-word simplified version with more details:
The past 365 days were so very hard. Some days I did not know if I could keep going. Many tough problems made me feel I would break down. Sometimes running away seemed the only way to get peace in my life.
But I learned there is no escape. All places have challenges. Difficult times find everyone at some point. The year taught me I am stronger than I thought. God gives us power to survive the worst days. And time keeps moving forward whatever happens. We just have to walk step-by-step through challenges that come.
When the year started, everything seemed fine at first. Then big money troubles hit me fast. Some family could not work anymore due to sickness. Medical bills grew fast. My paychecks were too small to cover everything we needed. I felt so much stress trying to fix it all. Some days I wanted to hide from the growing problems.
Other relationships I cared much for many years were broken too. A close friend moved away. He stopped calling or visiting over time. A girlfriend I hoped to marry left me. My heart was crushed. I was angry at life and asked why me. In my pain I hid from people and pushed some loved ones away also. My world felt all alone.
And the world itself added more sadness. War, violence, bad news filled all headlines. Prices went high making it harder to buy gas, food and more. Communities like mine struggled in the hard economy. It was doom and gloom wherever you looked. The weight of reality pushed heavily upon my mood and outlook each week.
In my worst moments, I dreamed of running to escape it all. I thought about vanishing to some new place and trying to find a new, simple life. But my wise mother told me that nowhere exists without problems. She said even bad times play a role over time. I prayed on her words. Slowly ideas came to me keep moving forward right here.
First I awoke early each day again to watch the sun rise. The dawn light and quiet time made me peaceful. Next I added prayer and meditation to meet God in the silence. His strength filled me again to meet every trouble. I also read great books of wisdom. Thinkers who suffered much gave me ways to see opportunity in my pain. Serving my neighbors in need shifted eyes off myself. Teaching struggling kids and feeding homeless folks put smile on face. Seeing them cope with even less gave me drive to endure my year.
Later when some past issues returned, old habits said to escape again. But new reserves within me now saw hope in place of fear. Thanks to my serving, loving communities had risen up to support me too. This circle of new friends felt like my best family. When latest troubles came down, we stuck together. I saw my worst days can make me wiser and closer to others in need.
Now 365 sunrises, sunsets passed this year. Many deep hurts came that I was not ready for at all. But I adapt more tomorrow thanks to scars getting me through all seasons back there. On the other side I still stand - not alone but wrapped in new brothers, sisters weaving tighter nets to hold one another up whatever lies ahead. I step toward that unknown future wary but resolved to walk steady wherever the path leads descending or rising. The light of wisdom shines longer with each lesson learned from pain endured. And my joy spreads wider blessing wider circles when freely I offer the same light to any lost traveler I find stumbling in dark valleys down the road. The year's closing and opening both whisper gently now that all things shall pass in time – and we pilgrims pass too into dust. So walk on boldly through your numbered days my friend but lift burdens for all other weary souls you find along the way.
