Having one of those days?…One of those weeks?…One of those years?
Hang in there!
Remember, when you hit bottom there’s no where to go but up! I know it’s hard. That’s why it’s called adversity. If it was easy it’d be called something sweet like comfort…or happiness…or health…or peace…or something like success.
But it’s called ADVERSITY. Because its adverse to comfort…its adverse to happiness…its adverse to health…its adverse to peace…its adverse to success. In fact, whatever it is that would make your life easier, adversity is adverse to.
So you’re in adversity right now. This very year. This very week. This very day. This very moment. You’re experiencing adversity. What do you do?
You go through it!
As Winston Churchill said, “If you’re going through hell, keep going.”
I’d say it like this, “If your going through hell, why stop? Why slow down? Why loiter? If you’re going through hell…RUN!!! Get through it and get out of hell!!!”
You understand that adversity cannot last forever. Adversity cannot defeat you unless you give up and quit. Adversity precedes awesomeness!
The adversity of labor pains precedes the awesomeness of a child being born.
The adversity of cramming for exams all night precedes the awesomeness of graduation.
The adversity of a broken heart precedes the awesomeness of knowing love again.
The adversity of knowing lack precedes the awesomeness of knowing how to be thankful.
I like how Oprah Winfrey put it. “Turn your wounds into wisdom.”
Learn something from the adversity and move on. Move on to AWESOMENESS!!!
