Slowly but surely I will survive. One step at a time I will arrive.

The journey has been a long one, with new experiences and lessons every step of the way. Although I never expected things to turn out like this, but I think this is the best way to learn valuable lessons of life and learn how to stand on your own feet.

I now understand that for one to live happily with other people one must be independent. Instead of tiring people about their life issues, they must figure out a way to live with their problems and adjust to their sufferings.

Life is unpredictable and you cannot always expect things to go your way, nor can you just sit and fold your hands and say I have failed. Don’t ever accept failure while you are still alive, life isn’t as easy as we make it out to be.

Even the ones who succeeded in life walked on the same route as we did and with their perseverance and determination they pulled through. Don’t always expect favours from other people because that might ruin the beautiful relationship you have with them. You have to hustle for your survival, remember no pain no gain.

You must be a go getter and chase your dreams because fortune always favours the bold. Failure is part of life, if you do not succeed, don’t lose hope, just go back to the drawing board and try again. We are still too young to be giving up on our dreams because of financial issues, we should instead find a way to tackle the issues and work on making our dreams a reality.

You cannot always get what you want in life but at least try to make a living out of what you have. Life is an unfair game and we must play it accordingly for the sake of our well-being.
There is no point in pointing fingers and blaming people for how things turned out, find a way to live and survive.

You cannot always rely on people. Get up and rinse yourself, continue with the journey of life and accept and appreciate the little that you have. Appreciation is the first step to success.
