Be Your Own Hero
Tough Times Never Last, But Tough People Do!
I've learned a lot this year. Professionally I’ve learned that things don't always turn out the way we planned it or the way we think they should. And I've learned that there are things that go wrong that don't always get right or get put back together the way they were before.
Unexpected problems are a part of life, they are like storms & they cannot be escaped, even if we want to hide in the storm shelter it is still there pounding away. We need to learn how to prepare and ride them out.
We may say that we have friends that are there to support us and we have family that is there to help us when you need help. This may be true, but when the tough time starts we are left all alone. There’s a saying, you come into this world alone and you depart from it alone. I never depend on anyone because I know even our own shadow leaves us when we are in dark.
Sometimes I ask my mother, why doesn't God help me in my troubles? My mother always says, if we are going through tough times, we need to know why & what we should do when we are in them. If not we become confused & frustrated & she believes that God really does have a purpose behind our problems. God wants to use our problems for good, to make us better and stronger for our personal development and in turn for us to be able to help others in their lives.
The world is an uncertain place. We make friends and lose friends, but in the end, the one person we always have to depend on is ourselves. A big part of what we become in life has to do with who we choose to surround ourselves with. We should be with those people who make us a better person and let go of those who don’t.
I have seen some people often create a role model for themselves but I personally do not look up to anyone. I like to be my own role model. I want to be my own hero & solve my problems successfully.
Good times become good memories, Bad times, become good lessons. There's always something good that comes out of every life experience. You can never lose; you can only gain from life.
Don't give up on yourself. Fight for yourself and what you stand for. In life, you've got to go through some bad times to get to the good ones.
The only person you can always depend on is yourself
