GREETINGS EVERYONE & MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!
I did like to use this medium once again to welcome you all to my blog and also another wonderful edition of the Hive leaners Edition.
It's almost the end of the year 2022 which is basically wrapping up with all it had come with. It is indeed a wonderful year to say though but there stands to be lots of things which had happened over the 365 days of the year and lots of lessons learned on each day of this year so far.
It has been been a really challenging one to say but God still kept us afloat and has brought us this far. He has been our guide and I am forever grateful to Him.
Though the year got to be very much turbulent for me, it still had its other favorable part in my life. Growing up, I had known pain and lots of suffering though, Life had gotten a lot of ways to teach different lessons.
As the year went by, I learned so many things from myself, my environment, the people around me, my close relations, and even those we call family, which had shown themselves too, but God still gave us the strength to keep pushing.
So one important lesson I have had this year is simply NEVER_GIVING_UP
The journey for me this year has really been bumpy but, still kept going. I started this year with lots of fears in my heart of how I was going to get things done, and how everything was going to play out for me, how my life was going to be this year, all these thoughts scared the hell out of me.
If it was only the fact that I had not have many bills to settle, then it would have been easier but holding onto the fact that I was schooling and also working simultaneously was hell.
The thought of how I was going to pay all my school bills since it was finals was killing me, money came in bits, and the responsibilities and bills whereas huge as a mountain, life, on the other hand, got so tight with little support from family members.
I just have to shoulder the majority of all surrounding responsibilities, keeping myself afloat and holding down the only family I got left. Things got so hard with me, all way around to the point I even thought of quitting school at the final stage just to find greener pastures somewhere else.
What had I not thought about, suicide, took a break from a lot of things I did, even from blogging, just to figure myself out and look for ways out of everything but nothing was coming forth, still I never kept trying.
If there is something I am very much grateful for was the ability TO KEEP PUSHING, TRYING, NO MATTER HOW TIGHT THE GOING GOT. It was never easy but man never gave up. At least I can say now, I am done with what really stressed and drained me of money, hence a new chapter of life opens, continuous trials, pushing, and not giving up kept me going. In the end, all this is attributed to God who gave me the strength to endure despite all that was happening.

Thanks for reading everyone
Merry Christmas to you all
Hi, I hope you're having a swell day. Thanks so much for sharing this with us.
I've thought about it a lot, and giving up just isn't an option. Why? Because what's giving up exactly? For me to just lie on the floor right there in the middle of my suffering?
I've thought about it a lot, and the path to less suffering is through suffering. If one puts all he's got into it, it is not a 💯guarantee that one will make it, but it is definitely and surely better than the alternative which is to just lie there in perpetual and indefinite suffering.
Also, suicide really isn't an answer. It never is.
I hope all our hustles pay on the end and we can get to have beautiful lives in the end. We'll then look back at this current suffering and thank ourselves that we didn't give up!!!
Stay strong, brother.
Definitely man I hope all our hustles pay one day. Your comment really means a lot thanks for taking time to make such a beautiful piece. I wish you the best of this year and more wins to you dear friend.
Thanks for your comment dear friend.
