The weight of life can destroy you or help make you.
It's your choice.
It has never really been about what happens to you in life but how you respond to it. The biggest decision you really have to make is if you are going to let whatever that has occurred ruin your life or if you are going to take life by the horns and keep going. When it really comes down to it, don't we all want to be known as the person that never gave up and continued to pursue their dreams no matter what happened?
We all face these great pressures.
There is pressure to be just like everyone else. There is pressure to be something you are not. There is pressure to act, speak, dress, and look a certain way. It's amazing that we all haven't crumbled under this immense amount of weight.
Why don't we all just face these pressures?
Fear stops us from acting. Fear stops us from being the person we truly can be and taking the next step. Why? Because that next step takes a massive amount of faith and willingness to go through the pain. It takes a huge amount of effort to become who we truly are. It takes guts.
For those who are willing to sacrifice their comfort for the betterment of tomorrow, they will shine as lights for many others around them. They will turn into diamonds. They will show the world what is possible.
If we take on our challenges as the things that will help define us in the future, we can look forward to the pain and pressure. We see the grind as something that is necessary for us to go through in order to help ourselves, others, and the rest of the world.
The choice is yours - to live in fear or courage.
Break to pieces...or turn into a diamond?
