Like Shakespeare, if you have ever met a writer's block or even wanted to act like Genevieve Nnaji and Angelina Jolie but can't even piece your art together or maybe even got stuck on one point in life's mystery lane;i remind you:

"When it doesn't seem like everything is okay,that's when you have to pull back and thank your stars.
When the going gets all uphill,that's when you have to muster enough stamina to beat the odds.
When the night is darkest,that's when you have to count on the rays of dawn to bring the difference.
When the clouds seem full with rain,that's when you can count on the grey beauty of the skies to show.
When you feel tired than most,that's when you can trust in the strength of resting a while".
...Most often,there will be the bleakness of life and the tiring resurgence of the negatives.But remember it is not just about the negatives that we get thrown rather the capacity in our minds to create a more rewarding reality even in the midst of it all.
There, lies true living and the understanding that will upscale the momentary phase.To be happy,much depends on the power of the creativity of your mind.Like the bright sky,let your picture come alive.
BE THE ARTISTE...Give your best shot!
Like every endeavor in life, we strive for the best. Our hope is that our best will be good enough for the intended result. The premise is, do your best and leave the rest to God. A good student once said, "I will study and wait, one day, my chance will come." I stand on this assertion to opine, that, success for most part attends those, who act boldly, who let their picture come alive, like the bright sky. Fear of the unknown, of failure, usually limits us, and we wallow in our cocoon, afraid to venture. But the only thing we should be afraid of is, fear. Fear corrodes, it's like electromagnetic device that have negative trappings. Fear is an impediment to success. Think of a child trying to walk, its countless failures; its successes few, but you will see determination written over its face, wanting to scale this hurdle. So it's just a mind set, and remember, if you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it. A famous writer, Shakespeare, once wrote, " Sweet are the uses of adversity, Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, Wears yet a precious jewel in his head." So, be the Artiste, grab the light at the end of the tunnel, the world is watching; what a beautiful sight.
ReplyDeletewo wo wo!
ReplyDeleteu literarily sound like Shakespeare himself.I like your use of the "child trying to walk" illustration.Nothing beats that...am hoping that one day i could also see Shakespeare's toad wearing that jewel.Indeed that will be a lifetime fulfillment...
Your comment is a well placed bulb.Thanks for throwing the light!
Pretty nice and inspiring. It seems each time I read it I learn something new at the subconscious level. But only us deep thinkers can get it.
