One thing we will all agree on is that, life is difficult. The difficulties of life breed several problems. However, the difficulties of life are not what makes like thorny, rather trying to avoid these difficulties.
So life is difficult but it is not so difficult, what makes it so difficult is our attempts to avoid the difficulties.
Instead of embracing the difficulties of life and working hard to overcome them, we make like extremely difficulty by trying to avoid the difficulties.
There can never be life without problems or difficulties but there can be life with less difficulties and problems. When we acknowledge that life is difficult and will always have difficulties, it becomes much less difficult.
Also, when we acknowledge the problems and challenges of life and begin to face them with full armour instead of running away, the challenges become much less challenging.
It is pretty useless to spend a great deal of time and effort trying to avoid the difficulties of life when you could have used the same time and effort to face these difficulties, fight and conquer them. After all, you will learn a lot from the problems when they are solved, and you would have overcome or killed something.
Remember that, every new problem comes with a new opportunity and platform to help us build our lives.
I have heard people naively say, a beautiful life is that which comes without problems. Forgetting that, the problems and challenges are the stones upon which we build a meaningful life.
Life will be far better and easier without problems and challenges, but if that was the case, it would not be called ‘Life’. The problems and challenges are the defining ingredients of life.
Stop looking for a life without problems. Stop trying to avoid difficulties and problems in life. Rather acknowledge and face these problems as they come.
Living a good life is certainly not living a problem free life, but rather living a life with fewer problems. The way to have fewer problems in your life is not by avoiding them, but by fighting and conquering them.
Spending time and energy to avoid difficulties and problems in life is pretty useless, because you will meet them again. Just face them and kill them.
