I think that a lot of people go through life thinking that they are not strong enough, they think that they are not brave enough, the challenges that the people face seem big.. life indeed has a way of showing people what they are really made of, even you yourself would be shocked on his long you can hold.
It is only when people go through tough and difficult times that they really understand how strong they are really.
For me the moment that I found out how resilient i was, was during the 2021 Crypto Crash, you need to see I was then, seriously, to be honest that time was really a hard time for me, everything too then seemed to be going wrong all at once, i had spent a lot of time and energy on cryptocurrency, then i had a lot of hope that it would work out,
ithought I had found something something that could really change my life....... Then the crash happened and it was a big disappointment to me, I was let down, suddenly, it felt like everything that i had worked for was now gone, my mind just kept replaying the numbers, the losses, the what ifs, seriously, It was heartbreaking.
I honestly had thought that i was not going to survive it, silly me,at least mentally, and I could not stop thinking about all the things i had already lost, all the potential that seemed to disappear overnight.
Somehow even in all that chaos I managed to keep myself together, not perfectly, of course, yea...I had my moments when I felt really scared and frustrated, I wanted to give up but then I did not give up, at least i didn’t give up completely, I didn’t let it break me completely, I got through it somehow and looking back now, I see that getting through it all was not just because I was lucky or because the time was right, It was because I was brave, I did not think that bravery was something I had in me.
It turns out that I do have alot of bravery in me and I realized that being brave does not mean that you are never scared or anything, It means that you keep moving when things seem really tough and hard like when everything feels like it is falling apart around you.
That experience changed the way I see myself, i learned that i am stronger than I gave myself credit for, losing that much, watching everything drop, and still managing to hold myself together showed me that i can handle a lot more than i ever imagined, It taught me to always trust myself, to believe that i can survive even when things feel like they are impossible, it also taught me perspective no loss, no matter how big it feels at the moment, is permanent unless you let it define you.
Now whenever life throws challenges at mei remind myself of that particular time,If I could survive that kind of heartbreak, stress and all the uncertainty of that crypto crash, then i can survive anything, now i am braver than i thought , I am stronger than I knew, I am more resilient than I ever imagined when it comes to the crypto crash and other tough times, the crypto crash was a tough experience, for me but it taught me that I can handle a lot of things.
That experience did not just test me alone, it also did reshaped the way I see my own strength and also my own courage, i survived it then, and yes ..... surely I will survive anything that comes next by God's grace
