Hello.
The unpredictables of life have two consequences.
It can let you down. It buries a hole so deep that it makes climbing up impossible.
And so you blamed. You blamed the rocky walls for not lending their hands to carry you upwards till you reach the surface above.
You forgot. You forgot that the walls have ears and not arms. You kept blaming and forgetting. And before long, you died.
Nonetheless, the sudden shifts of life can also lift you up. Yes, it still buries you deep beneath the ground with nothing in sight. But you did not blame.
Instead, you started climbing. You gave the rocky walls hands.
You remembered. You remembered that walls have strength and not courage. You kept climbing and remembering. And before long, you reached the top.
We tend to depend on the
surroundings and the people around us. We do that so that we can
blame them when we did anything wrong. And when we fail, we keep whining and hope that
they would come back and help us again. But we forgot. We forgot that in the end the person who ultimately fails or succeeds is
our individual selves.
It is about time. About time we stop depending on others, but ourselves. It is about time we keep climbing and start remembering. It is about time we reach the top.
Thank you.
