RE: Steemit Philippines - Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 8 (Week 3) || “Silver Lining"

in Steemit Philippines2 years ago

Wow! Your stories left me pinned to my seat, it's like reading three posts in one each movie. ha ha!

In the first one being at boarding school was very hard as it's not easy at all to be away from home, away from family. It was a prison but one that taught you to appreciate family more than ever, as well as recognizing your parents' efforts to stand up in hard times. This situation strengthened your character, your sense of responsibility and independence. Every cloud has a silver lining.

In the second quasi-cop story, Carol was never a good person, appearances can be deceiving, nothing can be that good without you having to pay the price. Fortunately, someone who loves you somewhere in the Universe took you by the hand and pulled you away from that bad company. You will never forget that story.

In the third story, the sale of a house took 7 long years, indicating that the general economy was not doing well and the pandemic came in to make that cloud even darker. But it's all over now, it's not worth complaining, because there are so many shortages and poverty around us that we are often reluctant to see. There is always someone who could be worse off.

I loved reading you, you have left great teachings with your life experiences and you have sown a halo of light and hope in the midst of this chaotic world.

Greetings and I send you a big hug.

Your turn to give me a beautiful comment to read. Thank you!

I once helped an attorney friend of mine. I told him that the case he was defending was not fair as I knew deep down the man was guilty.
His answer was that life is not fair. I could not agree with him but with time I got to learn the true meaning of his words.

If life was fair it would have been pretty boring.
If life was fair what would have challenged us?
If life was fair we would never have learned from it.
If life was fair we would have missed those silver linings.

Let’s take each day as it comes, living in its fairness.

Thanks for the stop and the engagement ☕️

Such is unfair life. Nothing can be perfect. Mistakes are there to learn from and enrich our lives with wisdom every day.

Greetings.
