SEASONS OF LIFE

It a beautiful sunny day, clear clouds, birds sing, kids playing, it was just such a wonderful day until we heard a horrendous scream of a woman. We dropped everything we were doing and ran towards where the scream was coming from. We discovered that the heartbreaking scream and crying was coming not far from where we were. We arrived at the scene only to find a woman helplessly on the ground covered in dirty and an ocean of tears rolling down her cheeks. Her sight was so somber, heartbreaking and very frightening that it made our eyes watery before we could even understand why she was crying. We inquired from her what the problem was, she didn’t respond in words but she just pointed at a window just above her. We went closer to the window to see what really made this woman so broken and helpless. What we saw was so heart crushing, shocking, unbelievable and very painful. It was such a horrifying sight that made us shade a tear upon taking a gazing only once. It was very confu...

T hey say no pain no gain. Regardless of how many times one fails but still having the heart to move on and try again is what differentiates achievers and failures. People who made a mark in this life be it sometime back or now had to withstand the reality of feeling and enduring the pain, frustration, discouragements, insults and even ridicules.

This paid off when he realized his 6 th album. He made a lot sells breaking the record for the first time in his life. He was highest seller in that year. It did not take long when he ...

I like winners. They have very rare qualities which I admire one of which is that they don't quit. In tough situations, they still move forward to accomplish their goals. Amidst strong opposition, they find their way and win. When all their friends are giving up, throwing the towel, they push forward. In football, golf or tennis, they use the same pitch, rules and are controlled by the same referee but they emerge winners. In life they meet the same problems we encounter every day; sicknesses, losing loved ones, rejections, marital issues yet they come out clean.
