I was trying to find a topic to write again when I chat with this new young friend whom I met at a forum. A little story sharing, she was quite upset and worry about her studies, applications to university and college and everything seems stuck dead end ! So I told her to take it easy, leave the things a while and let it unfold by itself. Just let it be if you have no control over it. No I am not encouraging you to not take actions but when you seems to have done all that you can do and that the result is not what you want it to be, then just leave it for a moment and who knows it will unfold by itself. If then still nothing, we will then consider the alternative. She did and few days later she had all the luck on her side. One year scholarship and everything settle in less then a week. She’s all ready for the new school NOW.
It is amazing when I think back, that just when we know we are at the end of the road and knowing that we have no left or right to turn to. It’s the end, full stop. All our efforts gone into waste, God is not answering our prayer, we are doom, finish, done !
BUT every so often, just when we are to give up on EVERYTHING, that we have put so much of our efforts into making it possible and thinking that that’s it. Realize it or not, we are almost always being thrown a new light ! Suddenly God answer our prayers, Universe is creating miracles ! We saw there’s a small path hidden behind the wall and a light shines through it !!!
This is not what people say the secret or law of whatever ever … it is PERSEVERANCE and PATIENCE ! The universe or God is ever testing our will power and ability to persevere under ALL extreme circumstances. It is our journey in this universe to be tested over and again so that when we are finally given the sweetness of success we will know how to value and treasure it more then it is just being given to us without any effort spend on it ! Only those who have been through the darkest and dead-end will treasure and value what brightness and . Only those who been to the rock bottoms will treasure and value limits the skies … unlimited !
Then again the question I always ask is, what is OUR limit ? How deep or how long can we allow ourselves goes ? What is our patience and perseverance limit ? Only our hearts know … where we stand !

Wonderful post, Jenny. Wonderful!
Regarding the question you pondered upon at the end of your post...
What is OUR limit? How deep or how long can we allow ourselves goes? What is our patience and perseverance limit?
Well, I would say, there's no limit as to how far your patience and perseverance would go. There's a saying that goes by if there's a will, there's a way. I think that's pretty true. If there's a will, there's always a way. It's just the matter of sacrificing, having great determination, and willingness to go through the darkest moments of life just to get that something you really want. In other words, how much do you really want it? If you reeeeeeeeally want it, you'll do ANYTHING for it!
Yeah there's a will, there's a way ! and there's never a limit to where we can go.
Hv a great weekend Jennifer !
