The trials we face either strengthen or destroy our faith in life.
The moment we think there is no way out, the sky opens up and shows how infinite our resources are. The problem is that we tend to focus on the reality we perceive, forgetting that what we are experiencing is only a tiny part of our life. However, small things often shake up or reveal the big ones.
To me, life is nothing more than doing what your heart desires (of course, there is always that notion of intention that comes into play to maintain balance in fulfilling your will).
Chess is an integral part of the process. They allow us to slow down, rest, question ourselves, and evaluate the efforts we have made along the way. It is clear that every road has its share of problems; however, some challenges are linked not to the road but to ourselves. That is why we sometimes make the same mistakes in different places and contexts.
I am sure that when we aspire to change, improve, or even evolve, the sticks that get in our way to slow us down can serve as a tool for simplifying things. It is all a question of attitude.
It is hard to explain how someone who has spent so much time and effort building their home can lose it all in a flash. In life, unexpected events can happen, and we have no control over the outcome. It can be a devastating experience to lose everything you have worked hard for, and the process of grieving and finding the strength to start again can be challenging.
It is easy to feel hopeless and defeated in such situations, especially when there is a risk of losing everything again or not being able to rebuild at all. However, it is vital to remember that there are different ways to define this experience, and having faith can be one of them. Believing without seeing is a powerful tool that can guide us through difficult times.
There are many incredible and unimaginable testimonies that we can find on the internet, proving that faith can work wonders and help us achieve things beyond our experience. Therefore, it is crucial to keep believing and have faith in ourselves, even when things seem bleak.
I want to dedicate these words to anyone who is feeling depressed and hopeless about their situation. Be aware that nothing is in stone, and the sun will rise again. The waiting period may be difficult, but we can master the rest of it. For those who have already experienced the power of faith, keep going and help those around you understand how it works.
