Over time I've discovered there is no absolute
finish line for everyone in the race of life.
Our tracks are different and our durations are
different.
The only thing we have in common is the same
empire.
For instance, one person graduates @age 20 and
struggles for another 5 years to get a job,
another might graduate @ 25 and get a job
immediately.
One can marry a virgin and wait for the next
decade to have the blessing of children, another
lady probably after having series of abortions in
her past, becomes a mother almost immediately
after marriage.
A fellow becomes MD @ 38 and dies @ 56,
another becomes MD @ 55 and lives to 90.
What a life?
Life is full of twists, turns-ups and downs and
many more surprises and disappointments.
Life offers each and everyone of us different
opportunities and once an opportunity is lost, it's
gone forever except by the grace of God.
It is up to each one of us to patiently prepare,
wait, recognise and utilize every opportunity. We
learn on the way.
No one has it all or knows it all.
There is a reason why we all don't fall @the
same time, It's so that when one is down, weak
and discouraged, the other who is strong can
encourage and lift the other person.
God never promises that the road would be easy,
but he promised never to leave or forsake us.
Although life is complicated, let us learn to go
easy on ourselves and trust that God is working
it all out for our good (even if it doesn't make
sense now). Whatever trials, challenges or down
times we face, all shall pass and in due course,
we will be up and strong again to lift up those
who may be down around us. NEVER LOOSE
HOPE... We all have a story to tell someday...
