WEEK 235: Conquering life and moving forward to my journey to create a better future!

It's been a while, Weekend Experiences Community! It's been so tough for the past few weeks of my life, so today, I want to share my thoughts about answering one of the topics given by @galenkp.

<pre><code>Do you have doubts and fears for your own personal future and if so what and why and how are you working to overcome them and create a better future? Use your own photos. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/48YchsTybsMCWngjMooPPXunSXTNanrFErnNdd52x41Wck9UKfCgZWjv9xPkGmEFVm.jpg" alt="The Bee Arrives In San Marcelino The First Jollibee In Our Town!

I assumed it would be enjoyable since I got to play and socialize with many people before I became a teenager. <p dir="auto"><strong>I came to see that it's not just a stage of enjoyment; it's also the time when you start to question practically everything, including your life and yourself. <p dir="auto">I've learned to love people outside of our family during this phase of life. First love, first heartbreak, first breakup, and first existential crisis all occur during this time. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/23xKrGwPniNUEkR2QH65ik6gFYnv4zWD2tcFb1P165r38fduvwEYSyWFLCuVpiLhKoDJP.jpg" alt="5.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/23xKrGwPniNUEkR2QH65ik6gFYnv4zWD2tcFb1P165r38fduvwEYSyWFLCuVpiLhKoDJP.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/23xKrGwPniNUEkR2QH65ik6gFYnv4zWD2tcFb1P165r38fduvwEYSyWFLCuVpiLhKoDJP.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto">I pondered what my twenties would be like when I was eighteen. This is when you start working for a company, get a steady job, earn money, become financially secure, buy a house, and have children, I used to think. <p dir="auto">Then I became this old. It is entirely different from what I had anticipated. My eyes have been opened to the world's realities at this point. An uncommon gem is a steady job that the environment's toxicity cannot sustain. Making money and maintaining financial stability is more complex than I previously believed. The process is demanding and requires a favorable opportunity. <p dir="auto">I've come to accept life as it comes. I no longer have expectations since I know that planning or expecting the unexpected will only result in disappointment. There will be many more events and changes in the future. Being my best self every day and taking in life's lessons are what I intend to do. <pre><code>How can I get past them and create a more promising future? <p dir="auto"><strong><em>I'm now eager to see myself achieve the goals I've prayed for and diligently and persistently worked toward. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EoiUBYHNtDAuXd5AtGiKkNetuoDrDvbTUKVw4Wqu89cVuwf3hccUi5dcN4vPUNiReyW.jpg" alt="2.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EoiUBYHNtDAuXd5AtGiKkNetuoDrDvbTUKVw4Wqu89cVuwf3hccUi5dcN4vPUNiReyW.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EoiUBYHNtDAuXd5AtGiKkNetuoDrDvbTUKVw4Wqu89cVuwf3hccUi5dcN4vPUNiReyW.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto">It's normal to feel eager and want those long-sought objectives to materialize immediately or as soon as feasible. After all, who wouldn't want to enjoy the fruits of their labor? But as we both know, things sometimes go differently than planned. <p dir="auto">Even with our excellent intentions and best efforts, things can take longer than expected. Sometimes, it takes hundreds of moments or a thousand sobs before you think about giving up, but nothing comes of it. I acknowledge that occasionally, I lose patience, my heart aching for a breakthrough, and I want the wait to end. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EogMqcvi6T4RNzaPt7qUA8DPrZA7FkGTGTrVFhUixcQPX11MwiZm6L5fXWjfgv8e7Uf.jpg" alt="4.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EogMqcvi6T4RNzaPt7qUA8DPrZA7FkGTGTrVFhUixcQPX11MwiZm6L5fXWjfgv8e7Uf.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/EogMqcvi6T4RNzaPt7qUA8DPrZA7FkGTGTrVFhUixcQPX11MwiZm6L5fXWjfgv8e7Uf.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto">Even though I have a lot of goals and aspirations for my life, life is asking for more than I can provide. Its weight constantly pushes me to the limit and saps my energy. That makes me question how I should continue on my current path. I have been on the brink of giving up multiple times, but I continue to cling to my dreams. I still dream and hope that my efforts will be rewarded despite everything I've been through, including disappointments, setbacks, moments of uncertainty, and sleepless nights spent crying. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/245SvrYrWKhxuVmzLMskACkuqwqXf8voSQdSxs1JsoncEYy7T4hZ4Ky9XB9W5nj3w8mda.jpg" alt="3.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/245SvrYrWKhxuVmzLMskACkuqwqXf8voSQdSxs1JsoncEYy7T4hZ4Ky9XB9W5nj3w8mda.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/245SvrYrWKhxuVmzLMskACkuqwqXf8voSQdSxs1JsoncEYy7T4hZ4Ky9XB9W5nj3w8mda.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto">Eventually, we'll reach the point where we can harvest our efforts. Until then, I hope you will keep nourishing and watering your dreams because every prayer and hard work you put in will help them flourish. Feel free to try, learn, and dream again right now. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/244UbB8kgs5CtnzYD6Dcb9FHGtenPpMttdsdnUfXRcPbmXR2tFeu3NTMYNtZorGrppcAR.jpg" alt="6.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/244UbB8kgs5CtnzYD6Dcb9FHGtenPpMttdsdnUfXRcPbmXR2tFeu3NTMYNtZorGrppcAR.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/teacherlynlyn/244UbB8kgs5CtnzYD6Dcb9FHGtenPpMttdsdnUfXRcPbmXR2tFeu3NTMYNtZorGrppcAR.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto"><strong><em>I only hope to be a happier version of myself in the future. Whether or not you have a special someone is irrelevant. I also want to remind you that you are more than your past transgressions and job. I constantly pray and hope for our genuine contentment and importance. I'm hoping we can survive.
