(DISCOVERY) 👥: THESE DEEP WORDS OF SAD EXPERIENCES, BY SOME OF THE WORLD'S GREAT, SHOULD REKINDLE YOUR FIRE BACK TO LIFE. IF YOU HAD THOUGHT'S OF GIVING UP 👌.
There goes this saying that "Life is not a bed of roses". And the 21st century presents another level of its image world wide. Conflicts here and there, malnutrition and famine in some countries, super powers at loggerhead's, uncertainty, wars, blunt wickedness from fellow human beings, mans constant quest for freedom and enlightenment. And what have you? As the list goes on and on.
But there are some other people that still give reason and hope for some others who are about giving up or have given up to life due to all these life tribulations and suffering. Even Jesus the Christ never said it will be easy.
Well, in this world, there exist two types of sensations or emotions 👉 (Joy and Sadnes, not leaving out the state of neutrality). The roots of these sensations or emotions armagates from our spirit and body. These sentiments rise up like waves and fall back to themselves. And when these desires or dreams are met up, if by thought we realises them, we start to get some sense of happiness and become empty again. When our spirits realises that it was just another dream or desire, these suddens us up to other horizon's.
But in addition, physical life situations humans go through, can make one wonder how others went through same situations and survived and celebrated in their different life callings (professions).
And if every living human being should start telling his/her story to be written up, then all the houses in this world will become autobiographical libraries.
So, we of @Niivanna_News harnessed a good number of quoted experiences by some celebrated men and women around the world from different professions. To encourage some body somewhere around the world and you reading this article, not to give up. For where there is a will, there is surely a way out. As one of my late (godfather) told me.
Some of these quotes, carries political, social, socio-cultural, psychological tortures, racist-social injustice, educational quackmires etc and notwithstanding, these sad and bizarre situations never quenched their quest for success and survival in this not easy world.
As you read unto these quotes, we wish and pray they rekindle your fire back to life, if you had thoughts of giving up in life due to your immediate situations.
