being grateful

I count my blessings. I remember a quote by a wise man; “Life can be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” I agree with it. Only when I reflect on how I got through my life challenges and difficulties that I know I have been blessed beyond words and my imagination.

When troubles come, stick with it. It is like a teacher and only when the lesson is learnt, it will leave our lives. And if we are slow in correcting ourselves or learnt from it, it’ll still trouble us…again and again.

When it comes, assess its root cause, seek the counsel of the wise, set their advice into our action, set our action into motion, persevere until it is overcome.

There is a story of a great Teacher, who walked on the sea towards His disciples who were in a boat. A disciple of His named Peter was called to walk on water towards him. Peter obeyed and walked on the raging sea towards Him. Peter was amazed. But he looked at the raging waves and started to doubt. He then began to sinking. The Teacher saved him and asked, “Peter, why did you doubt?’ The lesson is when we are going through the raging situations created by our life challenges, focus on the goal and the resources we had put in place to overcome them instead of focusing on the challenges itself.

So, in conclusion…be focus and persevere. And all of these troubles will come to past. Cheers!
