" Life is storm my friend, you bathed in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man, is what you do when the storm comes...." This is for me a is a very wonderful scene on the movie. Come to reflect on it, it does apply to any person in reality. In life we will always be encountering situations where we have to decide what to do. We either choose the easy one or the hard one and both have different consequences. So whatever storm we face in life, you become a better person if you face that storm and stand up with your decision.

life is full of complications, riddled with so many uncertainties, to quote a few lines in one of my poems.. and possibly has some truth about it. indeed, there are times in our life that we are as if in the dark clouds, under a gloomy horizon and there are also times that we experience euphoria all the time. there are also some path hole on the way we are sailing towards our destination, we may travel in a short direction or the long one but what's important is to arrive to what is intended for us. we choose we want to go and where we are going and whatever it is, all we have to remember is that, in every storm we encounter in our life there's always a light after every dark clouds and a rainbow sets in. sometimes struggle are design to make us strong in facing every adversities in our life.

You are truly light. Challenges in life are like lessons. It prepares us for uncertainties. Some consider it a challenge of faith, for some they consider it as a punishment. Either way, it can either break us or make us. But the thins is, we should always think positively about it and learn from it. That way, we will grow to become someone and will be able to face more challenges in life.

to optimistic is easy to say and most of us find it hard to do and implement.
and yes it could break us or be successful in things we want to do and have with the right guidance.
i always remember the story of how moth struggles to entangle from it's cocoon but because man is born to be helpful, he make a slit on the cocoon to easily free the moth and no longer struggle to move out from it, not knowing it is natures way of making their wings strong when they are about to fly and so the moth dropped on the ground and wilted.
sometimes, and i believe that not every struggle in our life that we need a helping hand yet i would say, a guiding hand would suit.
