Harsh reality

Back then, l used to be an impatient person. Too many ideas in my head and l wanted them all to simultaneously take a stage but l soon learned that everything got to have its time. The mere fact that there is a birth date then there is a death date for everyone alive. You can't rush anything to occuring regardless of how against your schedule that is. Patience is the mother of fate, success, karma. I must say the present person l am is thankful of what the past me passed through. Patience is more than just waiting , its also about what you are doing while waiting.  Do you think that if you had got the things you have now three years back you will have had the wisdom to handle them like you are now? We all need to mature to receive certain things , equipped to manage them regardless of their sizes.

How do you bravely face life's challenges? Take a deep breath cause life itself will take you on that practical tour, advices here are besides the point as there are no manuals and no experience is ever the same even if there are zillion living species on this planet, your story remains yours uniquely so. But one thing for sure is you better be glued up about what is it that you want your life to represent? The vision of your ultimate self at the end of seasons.
Our circumstances are all different and everyone has a baggage of some sort on their shoulders. Others deal with their hot spots silently while some cry out for help and pity, nonetheless don't allow your life to be defined by your circumstances. Yes they made you but they are not you. There is more to what you can do than you actually realise. Situations will always make you feel small but that's the time you need to shut down the volume of the world and turn up the voice inside and do right by you, let the world wait.

I looked at how much change freaked me out back then. I was always too careful never to jump out of the circle, l didn't want to do anything that could anger my parents yet it didn't mean they never got angry at me and l learned regardless of your good intenstions at doing something , someone else will perceive it different so do what you believe is right for your life, your future in your present. Change is inevitable,  nothing stays the same. We can't be young forever, neither can we play small forever, it serves no purpose to the world and to ourselves. I wanted to be an actor while at school, they refused l make it a career and the one thing that's sweet that l licked from that decision was the capabilities in myself l discovered from their word "No". Their word "No" forced me to ask myself whatelse can l do, next thing l have a list dropping off the pages of the things l can be. A "No" can be a "Yes" in disguise.  Don't walk away before overturning the stone, from far it always appear immovable.

Some people will feel offended by your success even when you never stopped them from using a chance they had. Some will out of the blue be your wombworms, sucking your achievement out of you, always calling asking for money, pity, lift. Distance yourself from such creation, negativity is a strong, free deodarant that is highly contagious.
Right now there are people that naturally hate you for being the best at being yourself, they can't stand how your honour yourself and love your being. That's where now you begin to value between what's worth your energy and what's not, do not entertain your haters' games and riddles, your league is way beyond.

Your killer can be anyone. We live in times in which your own sibling can sit and plot your death with the world and that's the harsh reality of our times so don't think your life is dependant on the bond you have with someone. We all have witnessed sibling rivalries either in our families or communities. Hate and Jealousy can dilute blood. The ones that always say " l got your back" are the very same people that will stab you in the back, afterall they are in the right position. Literally tolerate them all but trust no one. The one thing in this world that is priceless is trust, genuine trust, so fragile yet so fundamental.

The harsh reality is that reality is unforgettable like the pain someone has put you through, forgiveness cannot even erase the scars. They remain. Many are friends when you are happy but when sad and broken apart real friends appear through the cracks. On a daily basis many people ask for honesty yet they can't handle the truth, its harsh, its mean, its untamed. A bright smile does not mean no harsh tears smash waiting under my eye bags, it means l can keep it down when necessary and let it hail when my world is walled up by my thick skin of life goes on quotes. Some people enjoy dragging their baggages on to your highway but its your highway so be unapologetic about the rules you practice on your way.
