Life is a long journey isn't it? today you are just a little kid trying to chase your dream, caring if one sees you. And fast forward in no time,, you are an adult struggling to pay the bills, feelings of heartbreak and regrets of life.

But as you pause and ask yourself what's the point of it all? 

Babies are born, you find out that some of your friends have to leave at some certain point of your life, and the world keeps going no matterwhat. People just come and go out of their life. Some leave with good memories, some bad, some lessons, while others leave a big space in our hearts. 

With all this chasing our purpose feels like a dream that you don't clearly know as yourself why we do them. Why do we have to force ourself every morning out of bed to face someone who we might not feel or like us. We take on a job that feels like a journey that does not have an end. So what's the purpose of life?


I've been thinking about all this for a while now, especially about life's challenges. There has been, what if. The moment you stay up at night, thinking about how life looks like and what the future holds. But here is the most important thing we keep grinding no matter the challenges. And all these challenges are what becomes part of the messy and beautiful thing that makes us human.


I have also had my shares of this when trying to get up  feels like pointless and I felt like giving up, when the alarm squeezed at me and I just want to just pull over sleep more. But there is something that keeps me going, for me it's my family, my friends, the people I love. Even the stranger that smiles at me at the coffee shop, they all remind me that even though the hardship of life, the life we live is still a gift.

My purpose should not be about being happy every time, it is just in this moment of sharing time with my loved ones, learning from my mistake and showing up every day no matter how bad I feel. The truth is purpose is not that thing you just find easily. If something you build step by step, every timeyou fall and get back to yourself you are carving a token part for yourself that will lead you to a success that will be loud.

That job you are afraid of is teaching us to be disciplined and resilient, the boss who keep on insulting you, they are still pushing you to become a better person and they're pushing to know your words in every place. Those failures, they are stepping stone to success. 

Life is hard, and this hardship, they are the building materials that help us to lay the foundation and build your life to the upper level. So tell me why shouldn't  I smile every morning even when it's tough? Why should I not believe in the power of showing up? Why shouldn't been motivated with the hope that tomorrow is going to be better?

This is for someone or just for myself, the other has to continue because every step forward is a victory, no matter how little it is, success is success and every thought is worth it and every hard work is also worth it. you have to keep going and find a reason to keep the hustling going, because that is what you need to be successful.
