Life will throw all kinds of obstacles your way. From mishaps to setbacks to people and circumstances that will put you to the test.

Only the strong survive. Those who can’t handle it are penalised or left behind. 

I am learning to toughen up and roll with the punches. Learning to be resilient and adaptive are some of the ways that have helped me cope with the difficulties that life can and often offers.

Each day coping has become a self preservation tactic for me. I have to find all kinds of ways and means to keep my sanity. Getting through the day is a constant series of adjusting, refining, delimiting and setting boundaries. Things don’t always go as expected or as planned and sometimes my emotions get the best of me.

I am learning to always be gentle with myself while not being afraid to push my limits. Only the strong survive. Each day is like going back to the gym even when your muscles are sore.

So here’s to my life, everyday is a training day.
