Many times, we pray for the blessings and favour that we do not recognize the other blessings that come to us even when we do not pray about it, the blessings that are always ours even before we pray about it, and as such, we don't recognize those blessings because they are not celebrated like the other blessings.
Yesterday, I spoke with a friend who told me one of her church members died by committing suicide. He hanged himself in his room and nobody knew about his death until his girlfriend arrived. He is now in the mortuary and nobody can tell how a young man decided to take his own life after coming this far.

The struggles and challenges of life most times can cause depression and if not handled well, can make anyone regardless of age commit suicide because they are tired of moving, because their strength has gone weary and they have given up on life so that is why I am grateful for the strength to keep moving and kicking forward despite the struggles, challenges, and difficulties I face every passing day of my life.
Back in the day, there were times when I felt like committing suicide, but I never tried it because I felt obligated to stay with my family and comfort them of their loss, and so the thought flew out of my mind the same way it came.
Here I am today still pushing despite how hard things are getting, here I am still aiming for a better future despite the huddles and the storm. Things are getting tougher in the country, workers are been laid off, the economy is skyrocketing in a bad way but this isn't the best time to lose strength, we've come this far with the help of God and we will keep on pushing forward with God by our side.
