THE SCAR: A STORY TO TELL

Image
Today, I'll be writing a story about this topic. It's a fiction. It's not real. I want you to learn from this.  There I was, admist my problems. I tried getting out of it by my own strength but I kept falling deeper into it. Depression came in with a stool and sat comfortably in my mind. I kept struggling, trying to fight with it but it seems it is stronger than I am. A voice said to me “why are you fighting your purpose?”. Fear griped me. Who spoke? No one was in the room with me but  the voice kept talking to me. “why did you decide to run away from the purpose I created you for? Why? Don't you know that out of your pains comes a scar . Out of your pains comes a rebirth. The scar you get from it becomes your story. I began to cry. Why me? Why am I experiencing this? I don't want to live the life God is showing me.

A lot of people are really dead inside. I could term them as “living dead”. Yeah! They walk around, carry out their daily activities but deep down everything is crumbling.

CRITICISM

Image
According to the English dictionary, criticism is a critical judgement passed or expressed. It is the act of blaming or condemning people's opinions. Majority of us are victims of this. When we do things or say things that we know it is right and acceptable, that's when someone will come out and tackle those things. We sometimes feel bad but very few of us know how to handle criticism. I want you to know that it's not everything you do or say that will be accepted even if you think you are right. When you know that,you won't be trived when people criticise you. When you understand that everyone can't have the same point of view and mentality, then you will be able to handle criticism. Mind you, don't let the opinions of others to kill your own voice. Don't let the criticism of people to create fear in you i.e fear of not being accepted or your ideas not being accepted. Before I explain more about criticism, I would like to point out a very important factor t...
