I’ve had a comfortable life.
Compared to a lot of people on this planet, I’ve had an easy ride.
I’ve never woke up wondering where my next meal will come from. I’ve never wondered where I’ll have to sleep each night.
When it comes to adversity, I haven’t faced anything near as difficult as a lot of people have.
Yes, I’ve had a few scrapes here and there, but they were minuscule compared to the difficulties the least fortunate amongst us face.
However, when I have been faced with adversity, I like to feel like I have faced up to it.
I have never let it get the better of me. I have learnt from it. Accepted that life is difficult and moved on.
I have noticed recently, not everyone is like this. A lot of people struggle with adversity. It’s not unsurprising. Adversity is tough and makes us do things which are uncomfortable, feel emotions we don’t want to.
How you deal with the adversity in your life is important. For it’s from the bad times that we learn the most not the good.
