Stay Afloat.
The relevance of a ship is in its ability to sail through the waters without sinking... Davinchysax.
What makes an aeroplane what it is? What about an automobile, what is its relevance if it cannot move when geared up? What is the relevance of a fireplace if it cannot bring warmth? Countless things on earth will remain irrelevant if they do not do that which they were created or produced for. This is what it is for humans. Waking up every day and feeling healthy is for a purpose and if that purpose is not fulfilled, what then is the need for life? There have been countless times when we try to live above every ugly situation that comes our way irrespective of how hard it seems. We always fight so hard to succeed because we understand what it means to become a failure in life. The very question you must always ask yourself in other not to lose faith is; at what point will I become a failure?
Who is a Failure?
In other to understand the question in the last paragraph, we have to look at who a failure is. I will not bore you with definitions from the dictionary rather I will look at the word failure as it affects you and me. I believe we have at some point in our pursuit in life experienced failure. Now, this could be either not being able to study our dream course in the university, our inability to secure our dream job, marry the man or woman of our dreams, own and live the kind of luxurious life we always dreamt about and create great relationships with people we would have loved to have as friends. The list is very much inexhaustible because we have individual differences and preferences when it comes to choice making and the things of life.
For some of us, studying abroad will be a dream come through while some will prefer not to do so. Just as we are in the crypto sphere, some of us will prefer to own more NFTs than owing a token or coin. Some will prefer to go into crypto trading while others may not. The truth of it all is that our preferences in life determine our failure and how we perceive failure. Just as you may not feel bad if Chelsea loses a game since you are not a football lover, it does not mean that you will not feel bad about other things when they do not end in your favour. This is one fact about life that most times elude us because of our inability to think critically. No matter what you do or how good it may seem for you in life, don't forget that no man has it all. There must be something you will be missing or not getting right. What this means is that failure is relative to individuals.
The Message
Since we have been able to understand that failure should not be generalised, let us look into the message of today. I have always tried to make my posts more society or individual-oriented because I intend to solve a problem or bring peace to anyone that reads them every day. Today's post won't be different.
Looking at the title of this post you would have assumed where it is headed to. Whatever be the case, I would want to speak to your conscience through this medium. I watched a movie where one of the actors declared how another actor was able to lift her spirit through his words. I woke up this morning feeling the need to write this post. I have always known that a lot of people get succour by reading posts on this platform every day.
It may seem like a fairy tale to you when I tell you that your posts have a way of affecting every one of us here positively or negatively. This is the major reason why we must try to see ourselves in every post we make. Yes, I woke up today feeling the need to uplift some emotionally and my message is very simple; Stay Afloat. This is just a sentence made up of two words that can lift every that is downcasted. I do not know who the message for today is for but I would want you to know that you are not a Failure. Don't forget that failure is relative individual therefore don't use the success of others to judge yourself. Yes, they may be successful in one thing, always remember that one has it all in life. Keep floating and never lose faith.
You become a failure when you allow yourself to sink into your worries. Keep yourself afloat and watch as things turn around. Davinchysax.
