I am 26 and I have been through a combination of black/white shades that life’s canvas offered me. I liked it in shades and hanged on the front wall without hesitance or pretense. I did open the small window of my experience as and when I felt a need to breathe in some fresh air from outside which my dear society offered me. Thankfully GOD has blessed me with enough maturity to differentiate between what is right or wrong and wherever I could not, I had my justifications. Justification was not to satisfy the doubts of others but to have a peace with self, who doesn’t want to sleep well in the night.
I remember not so good days of the past and how I thought “I would never survive”. But the fact that I am writing this, is a proof that most of the times especially during darker than black times of our life we tend to underestimate our power of survival. We are not aware of our capabilities and power until put to some test and the mere fact that we survive makes us stronger and less prone to damage, when we land up in the similar situation next time.
It’s just that we are plain human and the way we have to revise the book before our exams we have to keep revising and reminding our self about the courage, power, and capabilities, potential that we possess before we appear for “Life Examination”. Sometimes even boasting helps!! Talk about your talent, Praise yourself, Brace yourself.
