Life is not difficult; we are the ones who make life complicated for ourselves through our actions and inactions. One thing I have always prayed for is not to have problems that are beyond my capability.
The truth is that no one is beyond predicaments, and whether we like it or not, it is something we are all bound to experience, whether at work or anywhere else in the world.
There is a saying in my locality that goes, “No one is beyond temptation, but no one ever prays for a temptation that may cost them beyond their imagination.” It is just what it is.
That is why we really need to be our brother’s keeper. If you can help someone, never mock their predicament. It is one thing that many people do not seem to understand. Some people capitalise on the fact that you have issues and then use them to their advantage.
I often hear people say, “Is it his or her problem? He or she should face it squarely,” forgetting that their own time is coming. No matter how smart you think you are, you can never outsmart destiny.
We should always be grateful and never think we are all in all. Never look down on anyone. There is a saying that a moving person is a success in the making.
I have seen people who work tirelessly yet go home with nothing and little to show for it, and I have also seen people who work moderately and yet have everything figured out. No one is an island, and you can never tell what life has in store for you.
Be humble, and always remember that if life throws honey your way today, do not think it will last forever. Just enjoy it while it lasts. Nothing, and absolutely nothing, is permanent in this life.
