As I was pondering on the journey of life, a few things came to mind. What will life be if it is smooth sailing all the time? Will all the Mountain top experiences able to keep one on the cheerful side all the days of her life? Or will both good and bad times keeps her on a better position to say life is fair despite of the storms and challenges?
I came to a conclusion that it is better off to have all the Ups and Downs going on. Reason being the valley experiences are there to build our character and maturity if one is able to persevere and not give up. On a few occasions I personally wanted give up on certain hopes and dreams but managed to pulled through. But can't deny that I'm no saint who can pull through each time without much complaining and tears (haha). I have my equal share too on giving up certain areas in life which upon much reflection, these were the right choices and decisions made. Letting Go and Letting God (my favourite phrase in this season of life). There are valley experiences that took too much time but it was not wasted at all. In fact, what matters most is when one is able to "bounced" back to life.
While life may be unfair to some, generally to many it is still bearable. At the end it depends on one's perpective about life. Are we to say that hopes and wishes unfulfilled makes us lesser than who we are? By no mean.
We have to learn to say (and mean it as well ^-^) "It's alright, I'm still in one piece, It's okay" and move on. Life after all is not a bed of roses but we can go through them if we believe that it is possible and tough times are not here to stay. One just have to see things from a brighter side and fill our minds with things that are good and positive while memories that are less pleasant be allowed to linger for a while and forgotten after we've learned from them.
I'm thankful that life is never a journey to be travelled alone. We have a choice to allow the Almighty to walk with us if we allow Him to. I'm blessed to have people to walk with me through every valley experiences.
All praise and thanks to the One who never fail to love us and show His grace whenever we needed. I'm grateful for His mercy and patience... without which I will not be on the Mountains after my visits to the Valleys.
