When seeing becomes unreal

in #teammalaysia7 years ago

Everyone has their stories, be it facing their own challenges or demon, financially, families or perhaps health.

But most of the time, most stories is kept within our walls, fearing discrimination, humiliation and fear in showing signs of weakness in world of strength and power.

Life is a planned journey with terrible map. It hard to tell how things could lead to another. Say some it all based on one's luck, some say it all on God's will. Whatever it is, it doesn't really matter because being practical, it is what it is and we got to deal with it.

I used to work as a building manager but now im between jobs.it has been really tough on me and my family but it seems whatever I tried to do seems unattainable. Having a secured job is really tough these days especially in this terrible economy.

So to ensure I could put food on the table, i have been pushing myself to train harder in darts as a source of income. It is a sport that I knew early in life and I have sharpen my skills to my best ability. Somehow, life push to this corner, all I can do is accept the challenge and continue fighting while continue searching and trying out for some better opportunity.

@danieldoughty knows my struggles and challenges, especially having to raised a special child who is suffering from Cerebral palsy

The day he show steemit to me and the the wonders of its possibility. I began to see hope appearing again.
He told me steemit can help and lessen my burden. Going for darts tournament has no guarantee of winning especially since age is catching on me.

I dont dare to put up too much hope as being dissapointed is a misery in my circumstance.

One night I really needed some extra cash to buy some necessity for my daughter, I don't have enough. As a father, that kind of situation is really heartbreaking.

While I was trying to figure out what is my option, suddenly I received a call from @danieldoughty. Our conversation form darts turn to steemit. He also told me that I can cash out available steem dollar in my wallet, The problem was, I don't know how and needed his help.

We meet twenty minutes later and within 10 minutes I received RM350 in my bank account.

It was unbelieveble joy, I couldn't grasp the idea of how the money came from. But he said, " now that you see the money, does it really matter how it come from? "

Seeing is believing, but to see steemit money paying off for my daughters need, is just unbelievable.
