“Life is about accepting the challenges along the way, choosing to keep moving forward, and savoring the journey.”

Endurance― the power word that can move a mountain. And those with a futuristic acumen, those who genuinely want their state to be changed, those who want to grow― they find ways to flourish despite hurdles.
Consider it a statement― wrap it with your determination and you will be there― sooner or later. Sometimes you just need to take the first step towards the impossible and who knows this can be the final brick to laid the foundation of your dream or perhaps, this single brick will form the entire of it like that Amoeba― a single-celled creature with the perpetual activity of regeneration.

We are easily moved from our determination because we do not want to try something new or are too shy to publicly announce our uniqueness. Overpowered by the waves of imagination, we deny giving impetus to our futuristic acumen and prefer cooping up in the corner of our room— our so-called comfort zone.
And as the day gives way to dark night, submit all the glory of dazzling light to that pitch-black hollowness, we find peace labelling our condition as destiny— thus passing our boo-boo to the benevolent Almighty.
But what we do not realise is that uniqueness is beauty— the sublime ecstasy in being unique has pushed God to create so many faces, so many personalities— different in appearance, behaviour, and integrity but united by the notion of authenticity, doability, and creativity.
And our God, mocking at our perpetual tendency of riding the tandem of captivity, takes away all the snazzy elements, leaving nothing but a speck of dust— that too rotten in the half-shoved jar resembling our feeble sketch.
But God was willing to show us the path of righteousness— mingled with destiny yet supercharged by our free will, we had the chance to make it a top-notch with a cherry on top.
Only if we could help ourselves with a bit of courage to see it with our eyes instead of snivelling. Only if we could….
