The Road of Life

 

THE ROAD OF LIFE
     Life is a journey. It is a road of possibilities, opportunities, happiness, sadness, challenges and trials. It is full of mysteries that only us, ourselves, can discover. As we take every step in our lives, challenges and difficulties may block us on our way to test how strong we are to hold on and to never quit in this journey we called life.
     Let's have this short story in defining life. When USA launched a mission in space, they found out that the pen would not write in zero gravity. So they spent 10 years and 12 million dollars to find a pen that would write in low gravity and under extreme temperatures. Do you know what Russia did? They used pencil. If we connect life to this statement, we would come up in the thought "life can be simple so don't complicate it". We don't need to complicate life just to have a comfortable feeling but instead, let's take it simple and live life simply. Trials might make our journey harder but, if we take it easy, there's nothing to worry about.
     Life isn't about knowing yourself. Life is about creating yourself. Another thought life can relate to. In this journey, creating oneself is the main purpose. Through the challenges and predicaments, which makes us disappointed sometimes, we are molded on what we want to be and what we will be. It makes us strong and determined to value life as the most wonderful thing we can ever have. Let every challenges and trials serve as our lessons in living life to the fullest and making it better.
     We can also define life as an alternating current. As what we can observe, its waves go ups and downs. In life, sometimes we are at the top and sometimes we are at the bottom due to how we work with the problems and how we take it. We cannot say that we are always on top for God holds our lives. We cannot tell God to take us to the top for all we have now is His plan to us.
     We cannot be successful in this journey without Him. In this road of life, many things would happen. You may lose or you may win. You may pass or you may fail. But, whatever status or position you have now, there will still be people staying to support and comfort us especially our God. Let's prove this thought by this quote"Life is like a yo-yo in God's hands; whether we go up or go down, we always end up in the palm of His hand".
     So, even though you are the poorest or richest person in the universe, God will never leave us. Remember, life is a journey with Him. Let's take it simple and let's make every challenge and trial to be our inspiration or lesson in living and journeying this road of life.
