There are only two options give up or keep going,but most of the time we choose the easier one the first one, and not only the most easier is the one is more in our mind, why? because there time in our life where we try and try had and harder, but we don't see any results, sometimes are our teenagers children, or in our job, or maybe the husband, but always face challenges in our life, but we have to be strong. Never give up, keep trying,it happens to me too,sometimes I say, should I give up? but not even thought I see no hope in case, I don't give up,I have life time where there money was absence, so the food too, where I seems to be the ugliest woman of the world, where love mercyfull, compasion, never were on site. But I only had two options give up or keep fighting, when I look at my past I see all the struggling situations that I faced but what? I am alive, I am happy, I am healthy,I still have problems but that is what is about the life, we only have to be brave and give our best.Blesses mylotter friends.

Rosa26 I agree that we must not give up. Life is different for everybody but everyone has certain problems or situations that can be challenging. I am with you. I look at my past and think wow! I made it all this way. I am 37 years old and was attacked and almost killed when I was 19 and have been through so much since then but look. I still have problems but I am alive and can eat and pay my bills and happy! It takes work mentally some people have all the money and the world and they are not happy.

Well to me if you are fighting for something good always remember never to give up, never to give out and never to give in. A quitter is a loser. If you started something you just have to pursue till you succeed. Your determination and faith will surely help you through.

Exactly determination is the right word, a person with determination is disciplined,is loyal to his/her goals, work hard to get to the top.

Never surrender. Success is just around the corner. There will be times when you stumble and fall, but you can always get up. Everyday there are trials and problems and of course, there will be errors and miscalculations. But this is what life is all about, full of challenges and tests. Faith, confidence and determination are our tools to overcome all obstacles. I am glad you chose to be happy.While there is life, there is hope. Let's be strong and keep going. God bless you always, Rosa26.

Thank you very much, Bamikalipal beautiful response and advise, and I will take it for my life, I happy to know that in the other of the country or the other side of the world there are positive people like me that decided to never give up, even thought, the circumstances are difficult, even thought the weather, the family, the finances,and everything say no, we choose to say yes. And never give up.

As Cheri carter Scot has said-It is not important what you do when you are at top, It is how high you bounce when you have hit the bottom. Struggles are part of life and it is only after struggles you emerge stronger. Adversity brings to fore our character. My own philosophy is be cool when time is tough. You need to put your best effort when the circumstance are worst otherwise you perish. So keep fighting as long as you can.

Yes. Faith in God is great sustaining force in the times of adversity. But I would say that it is better to have faith all the times, good or bad,and don't become a part time devotee. Then one derivers more strength at the time of adversity.

And the most important is to know that we are no alone, we have God who take care of us. And allows some circumstaces reach to us, just to make us stronger in faith, and face the in a diffrent way. After the pain goes away we recover strength, and more positive toward the future. But the truth is that if we learn the lesson that God wants to teach us with the struggling time we are in victory. Thanks for your awesome participation in this discussion.

That is really true...life is most useful when there are problems. It makes our lives colorful..If we don't face the failure and the bad the will not know the success and the good. We succeed and failed at past so take it as lessons to move on. If we face the good continue with it, if we meet with the bad just deal and face with it with all the experience we have. If we don't have any then take it as a challenge which you may use it in the future as a lessons.(^^) So keep fighting!!!(^^)

That is what I did to my sisters' children. Whenever they have fight I will stopped them by asking them such questions. They need to think more before they do the actions as kids tend to act first before think as they still not good in thinking th egood and the bad results so we the adults need to guide them.(^^)

Yes, when I was a preschool teacher, I used to see how the children weren't tolerant with each other, so it caused that they .bite each other, then me like a teacher was always trying to solve their problems, one day I understood that they have to learn to solve their little problems, in order that when they get big, they can have capacity to solve their big problems. So we face hard time since we are children but we have to be strong and try to find a soluion, after the children have their controversy, I used to make questions to them about how the problem began, and what was the result, and what do they think should be the reaction of their friend, until they get to the point that with a simple please or I am sorry everything would be solved, and there was no reason to bit each other. Thanks for your sharing cthanum it was very helpful.

People keep fighting if there's something worth fighting for. Take that away, and who knows?

I'm a fighter. I cant do it differently. I even think that if ever I'm attacked or robbed I would fight more than run or scream. My past has brought me like this realizing that its not anyone else's responsibility to fight for what you want.People can support you but only you can push forward.Even there are times noone encourages you but you still have to go on- with others depending on you and your ultimate happiness at stake. i agree with you completly. Gods blessings to you

Life is all about hardships and overcoming them. In doing that, you become strong. My own personal mantra is that "Failure is not an option!" I will not fail myself, my family and the people around me. If I stumble and fall, I'd rise again stronger than before.
