366 days of wisdom (July 03, 2020)

Day 185 of wisdom

“The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you're made of, not the circumstances. ”

Mel Robbins

Circumstances in life does not always come to disrupt, dent, destabilize, or destroy us, most times they are allowed into our lives to bring the best out of us. Circumstances always come to squeeze out what is within us, and not to make us what we are not. When orange is squeezed it gives orange juice; when when you squeeze lemon it give you lemon juice; orange does not give you blood when squeezed, so when circumstances come, it brings out what you have in you.

Cheerfulness is a choice, one can maintain a cheerful spirit in the face of rough, tough, and difficult situations, or choose to be destroyed by the same circumstances. Keeping your cool, and calm despite the difficulties you encounter says a lot about who you really are, and tearing down yourself, giving up, quitting also shows the weakness of your spirit.

In the words of Henri Frederic, "it is not what he has, or what he does which expresses the worth of a man, but what he is." Let your true self, your inner being be the poster of what you truly are, don't let circumstances change your being, rather work on changing, and remoulding your circumstances to suit your life, and purpose.

Strength, integrity, courage, power, wisdom, compassion, and optimism are the virtues of great minds, and will be exhibited no matter the circumstances around them, they must always allow their inner strength to win no matter what. External circumstances should not control a man, but he must control the circumstances around him, and make the best use of every situation.
