Light comes after the darkness

There is no one who hasn't faced struggle or sadness or darkness in life. The things that happen in life often shakes up us and throw us out of balance in life.

The pure experience life throws at you comes in the form of win, lose, celebrations or challenges, some will be good and others be bad.

Some experiences give us pain emotionally or physically. Often times we feel betrayed by life itself as the situation it throws at us. We start questioning as why we have to face the struggles and complain about the life being unfair.

What we fail to realize is that often times the struggle presented to us comes in form of a hidden gift. When we face struggle, relationship failure, low point in life, time we lost in darkness. It is in these moment you realize that you are not your circumstances but meant for something greater.

It is a gift because these struggle bring you to your knees where you question your purpose of your life. It allows you to go deeper into yourself and allows to find who you are and who you are meant to be.

As the phrase goes, "Light at the end of tunnel", after the lowest point in your life, the only way is up. So don't let the struggles, hardship of life distract you from your true purpose. Learn to find happiness in smaller things. Appreciate everyone and everything, be thankful to people who helped you in your hard time. Be generous to people who are in their hard time.

Thank you for reading.
