Just living


Should you just stop trying then? 

That’s a question we ask when we have come to the end of our strength and are still unable to make headway. What’s the point of trying if you are just going to fail? What’s the point of even trying a little if you fall flat on your face every time?

Well, as tempting as it may be to sit back and throw in the towel, it really is not an option. I have learnt that playing a game isn’t always about winning. Sometimes it is the process and what you learn along the way that matters. You must have put in some level of work, commitment and perseverance, all of which goes towards building the strength of your character.

So maybe the aim of living isn’t about the end point we set for ourselves but the process of transforming us into the person we become. Ask yourself, will I let myself become bitter from a mistreatment or will I become a stronger, more steady person? After all, living is about being involved, existing is just about taking in air. So, quit existing, start living. Yes, as long as you are living, failure will come along on the way to success, but it’s all part of the process. So, fail, learn and keep moving and transforming into the person that God created you to be.

It’s all a part of life.
