Facing hard times is, indeed, always hard. Looking back on my 27 years on earth, it’s oddly hard to remember those easy, beautiful and meaningful moments of my life. Yet it is very easy to remember those moments when I felt very low. But as I grow and become mature, I learned that hard times serve an important purpose. Hard times are the trigger for greatness. Without them I would not reflect on my actions. Without them I would not reach out to friends or people I adore. Without them I would not look to books to seek answers about what and why something went wrong. Without them I would never learn to improve myself and become a better person. Without them, there would be no easy, beautiful and meaningful moments in my life.
Happy Birthday, Dandy. This is only a beginning. There are lots of exciting things yet to come!
