It Always Seems Impossible Until It’s Done


One of the easiest decisions a person can make is to give up in face of adversity. But that’s the problem- it’s the easy way out. I know it’s difficult to face challenges that seem impossible to overcome, and choosing to stop trying to beat them would save you a lot of time and stress. But where would you be in life if you always threw in the towel and didn’t push yourself to overcome adversity? You’d be stuck in the past because you only got to where you are now by persevering against tough odds. We are meant to grow as human beings and this is just one of the unfortunate steps along the way because adversity is impossible to avoid. So are you going to secure the bag, or fumble it?

Where Do You Draw the Line in a Relationship?

Growing up, I used to think being nice was the best way to live life. You know, you put good into the world, and good things happen to you- you reap what you sow. However, as time progressed, I realized that, ironically, being nice can also end up causing you harm. There were people who saw that good things happen when you’re being nice- for them. The harsh truths I had to learn were that sometimes you can be too nice to people; some individuals will run all over you if you allow them to; and there are people out there that take advantage of the kindness of others. This has played a huge role in why relationships become very unbalanced.
