Lessons
in Life I have learnt
If
you believe you can do it, YOU CAN. It was when I was in
secondary school that I picked up this book from my dad's
library. I couldn't remember the title of the book now or
even have it now which I probably will blame myself for
the rest of my life. Oh where oh where can you be? But anyhow,
I think the title read something like" You can achieve
anything?" It started out with, this author saying
he can help you earn lots of money which I must admit is
the reason why I flip the pages in earnest! What I found
out from him was the this amazing lesson of the power of
mind over matter. If you put your mind to it, you can achieve
anything. He thought me the power of positive thinking.
Frankly,
I didnt't think much of it after that. But I did feel after
I finished the book feeling inspired and a feeling a sense
of worth and enlightment or some sort. A year ago, I begin
a journey of reflection in my life and I thought back on
what I wrote down on that list of things I want to achieve
many years ago, I was truely amazed by how much of it is
actually fullfilled?!
I
guess it comes down to how to look at it as well. There
are of course lots of abstacles and set backs along the
way. It is a matter how you choose to look at them. Cry
over them and blame your destiny? I believe that adversities
in life are like gems of life lessons. Each fall is telling
you something about life.
I
feel that the wrinkles on the face are like the journey
they have travelled in life. Each line has a story to tell.
Each line is a triumph of the countless battle with life.
