Hard times don't last.

Hard times they say don't last. Sometimes it is very difficult to believe that saying, but here i am saying to you they don't last. Hard times are always constant in a man's life. We come across this at different particular points and spheres of our lives. These are times when we feel so overwhelmed, troubled, scared, anxious, sick, and many other associated feelings. Everything during this period seems so blurry, we seem not to see any solution forthcoming to our situations. But still, i say to you hard times don't always last long.

No amount of tears can make it go away or prevent it from coming but with a strong mind, hope, and faith it seems as if it doesn't exist.

Virtually 98% percent of humans have gone through these periods in their lives. Hard times come as a means to make man crack and to also destroy the thick skin he has developed blurring every vision of hope he may seem to have in his possession. I have really been at that point in my life, a point when i feel the earth is crumbling and it was about to open up and swallow me. There was no joy, no hope, neither was there a sense of direction at the moment. I felt weak and thought about if it was really worth it for me to be on this planet, the reason why is because i was just being stagnant. All i worked for over two years went down the drain, nothing to show forth, my mom was lying sick with cancer and there was nothing i could do as the first male child to help. I saw all that was around me as lifeless during those periods. Now if i tell you i know what it really means when i talk about hard times, i know what i am saying. I have been there. I have experienced it and it wasn't for just a short time, it was for years. The times you will eat a meal today and there will be no hope for another meal, not to talk of the next day. You live life as you like, with no sense of purpose, direction, or motivation, really i don't think one who hasn't had food to eat would be able to think properly. No, I doubt that, it is really impossible because the thoughts that will be going through those hungry minds are the thoughts of food.

Hard times don't last. You may keep wondering why i keep repeating that, I am repeating it because i am sure of it. Why you may ask? The reason is that rocks are being melted, hard stones are being melted no matter how hard they may seem to be or coarse they look. They all melt by the application of intense temperature, and you know what they turn to? They turn to liquid.

From a solid state to a liquid state. That is and must be one of the greatest conversions. An unsurmontable object turning into liquid, a hard stone that can hurt turning into a liquid that can be turned with a fingertip.

There is absolutely no hard time you face today that can't be converted into a liquid state. You need to brace up and intensify your temperature, your level of hardship or hard time should define and determine the amount of temperature you will put in. Do not let your hard times define you, do not let your hard times mold you into something you are not. You can convert that hard stone into liquid. Keep pushing, develop new plans, strategies, visions, goals, dreams, and mindset.

At the end of the day when you see your hard times turn liquid, you will be glad you didn't bow down to it.

Remember, Hard times don't always last.
