Life is not always a bed of roses


I never dreamed of anything but a happy life forever. Life is like a wheel, at times you’re up and sometimes you’re down. Many of us hate to be down because it needs time to bring it back to where it came. Yet, time would just come right.
There are a lot of lessons in life that needs to be learned not just in a snap of a finger, it is taking time to learn from our own mistakes, understanding our weaknesses and identify our strengths and capabilities. To see the beauty and bounty of life could clearly be seen if we understand that life is not just a bouquet of red roses but also stalks of thorns. We need to break an arm for us to learn to be careful: we need to get pressure for us to work more. Yes, life is not always a bed of roses.
Taking responsibilities in our own action is very important. We have to identify what is good for us and what can harm us. This shows that we are the master of our life, we are the driver, we direct our path, and we always had a choice. The life we had now is what we make it. I could have chosen just to dance and disregards my studies, but if i did, i would not be here right now.
Let would be a great help if we set a goal for our lives. It is like making a blueprint in building a house or a script in a show. It is good to plan things ahead.
our social interaction is also a factor that would help us grow emotionally and socially. Participating in a collective effort and adjusting to peer pressure would be of great help in our personal development.
Family is our real confident, it is where we get strengths in our daily undertaking and our values are formed by the upbringing in the family. The kind of family we came from shaped what we are.
Let me end by quoting an expert from Og mandino: We are not on this earth by chance; we are here for a purpose. And that purpose is to grow into a mountain and not shrink in to a grain of sand.

  2. Well,article is very good and pretty readable. Thank you for it. But! There are lots of grammatical mistakes. E.g.: we always had a choice. The word 'had' is the form of have in Past Simple So in this case it sounds like We had a choice in past. but now we dont have it...I think its not right as we have a choice always.
