Hello everyone,
Life truly is full of uncertainties sometimes i just sit down and think about how unpredictable this world is one minute things are moving smoothly and the next it feels like the ground is being pulled from under your feet but no matter what happens we still find strength to wake up every day and keep pushing.
I remember a time in my life when I was very low It was during a period when business was not moving well I had invested my little savings into something I thought would yield a great result, but things did not go as planned every day I kept calculating how much I had lost i was down emotionally and financially to make matters worsenthat was when bills kept piling up my electricity bill was due, the gas finished and even my phone charger decided to spoil at that time it felt like life was mocking me I cried in my room and kept saying why me but something happened along the line. I didn’t give up i started looking for other ways to survive I began to use my skills in small freelancing jobs and slowly I started earning again I remember the first time I got paid after a long season of nothing I danced that day like I just won a jackpot it wasn’t much but it gave me hope that things can chang from that small win, I was motivated to keep going and little by little life started picking up again that period taught me that no matter how hard things are they don’t remain the same forever.
On the other hand, there was also a time I was at the top, enjoying myself thinking I had finally left struggle behind I got a job that was paying me well life was sweet, and I started relaxing too much I thought to myself at least I am stable now but out of nowhere the company downsized and I was among those who were laid off that news broke me It felt like I was back to square one after all the effort I had put in Regret filled my heart I kept thinking If only I had saved more if only I had invested wisely that period was not easy for me Mentally i almost gave up but I kept encouraging myself i reminded myself of the times I had survived worse situations. I began to practice gratitude thanking God for the little things I still had, like my health, my family, and my skills gradually I picked myself up and started afresh.
From both experiences I have learnt a big lesson life is not a straight road there will always be ups and downs but what matters is how we respond when you are low don’t remain there take small steps no matter how little to rise again When you are at the top don’t relax too much prepare for the unexpected and stay humble to anyone going through a tough time my advice is simple don’t give up life can change in just one moment keep pushing keep believing, and one day you smile again.
