Life's Challenges

I wished for it and BAM! It came.

I thought that life was boring. Nothing to think about. It was so uneventful it's a little frustrating. Then I wished for life to be more interesting and damn! It came true and it was one heck of a ride! An experience I won't forget. Masyado akong nasubok ng mga nangyari!

Pero what's good about it is I manage to realize a bunch of things. Things I'm sure I won't know with my simple way of life before. Always happy. No big challenges to test me. It was a secured place I unknowingly built for myself because of the things in my past. I didn't know I was running away.

Then I opened the door, and left that place. I was paralyzed for the second time in my life. The second time I thought of just dying. I was so fragile. I was lost. I was scared. And I found out, that I really didn't know myself.

Di ko talaga alam na ganon kasi I'm always happy doing the stuff na makakapagpasaya sa akin. I always take the easy way. Pero napagtanto ko na I won't grow as a person if I keep doing that.

But now..

I feel I became much stronger than before. I was so thankful to have experienced it now than to have it later. This was really something. Another experience on my "box of life".

Next time, I won't be beaten. I won't run away. I'll face it with my head held high!

"Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you,
they're supposed to help you discover who you are."
