Life Will Not Always Be Easy

At the beginning of the year 2023, I made a resolution that my letter to you would be every Monday but I could not keep up with it. Not because I am lazy but because school has resumed and I have lectures 8PM Monday to Friday.

I have to wake up extra early so as to get to my bus stop to catch a bus to school. My school transport system is not so good so we have to go the extra mile. It is okay if you are finding it difficult to keep to your resolutions due to life challenges. Just do not dump them; do them when you can.

Life is truly never easy; it is not a bed of roses. Maybe it is for some but for majority it is not.

There are times when life looks so easy and rosy and there are times where it seems to be filled with so many rocks that it looks like you cannot climb them and get to the other side.

Life has a piece of struggle for you regardless of who or what you are. It has enough for everyone.

Live in the reality that life will not always be easy. It will not always be black and white.

Life not being easy does not always have to do with wealth. There is so much more beyond that.

When life brings its struggles and its difficulties, endeavor to rise above them no matter how difficult it might get.

No matter how difficult it gets, remember that you have God and he never leaves.

Life will not always be easy. It will not always be a bed of roses and you must accept that or you frustrate yourself
