"Hapo mtu wangu ndio mwisho wa reli, hii life imekuwa wagwaan kuruka". This is my friend telling me the plight of his life. "Kila siku niko kwa husle na vile life ni khaard, lakini maisha nikuskuma hii gurudumu ndio nijijenge". He utters as he sits there bewildered by the fact that the struggle for making it in life has become a reality check.
Well then, aluta continua. Looking down at the city streets, I see a throng of people rushing to catch the evening bus back home. Tired, hungry, drained, brain clogged, aching these are just but a few of the after-effects of a long day one has had to endure to put a meal on the table. Such is the life we live, trying to make meaning of it all.
Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come. It is part of life to face & encounter obstacles. Overcoming the obstacles thrown at you like hand grenades, that is indeed the key to happiness. Nothing in this life is out of your reach & everything can be achieved through gradual steps, one small step at a time.
In this moments we live, you may encounter many defeats or falls. Do not be fettered, for it is through this defeats, you can know who you are, what you can rise from & how you can still come out of it. As a friend of mine just pointed out, "Mwanaume ni effort". Just like the brick walls, are there for a reason.
Brick walls are not there to keep us out but rather they are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something, because they are there to stop the people who don't want it badly enough.
