As student, I am exposed to knowledge everyday ranging from the arts to the abstract theories of math and science. I am definitely sure that many of us require time to digest the numerous data inputted in our brains everyday and nonetheless there are some of us who struggle against the new knowledge that we’re engulfed with. In elementary school that was what I believe the struggle that hinders me from climbing to the summit of knowledge. Perhaps because I was only in the early stages of my childhood, therefore I wasn’t sure what the true meaning of knowledge was. In addition, I began to develop a plan and strategy to surmount the difficulties I have in school and this is also a continuous project that I have confidence in completing it.
As I enter high school, my perspectives to life broaden, and once again what I sought for and the definition of my personal struggle varies too. Knowledge to me in high school is not limited in the eight specific courses we take but nevertheless the significance of wisdom and striving to expand our global perspectives also becomes another step in shattering the brick wall in my life. However, we must know when to retreat when necessary because if we wish to advance and triumph over our struggle as rapidly as possible, this may result in the lost of your battle. I truly believe this simply because a struggle is an obstacle in our life, we should enjoy the challenges that we’re face with rather than quickly overcoming your struggle. Now I begin to understand how to manipulate my struggles correctly so therefore it will become a solution in the future. My struggle symbolizes a compass, it correctly shows the path of my life and it serves as a force of motivation that pushes me to prevail over my struggle.
Nobody will know what will happen to us in the future; certainly we will not know what struggles we are faced with in the future. My struggle for knowledge and wisdom certainly has not been fully achieved yet and I believe that this struggle is still in a far distance. This is simply because nobody can fully master the knowledge and wisdom that all mankind possesses. This may sound it is impossible to conquer a struggle like this, however we should not be pessimistic and yet we should be more sanguine and positive. In my perspective, nobody is a loser even though they haven’t conquer their struggles yet, but otherwise a winner because in some circumstances you may have overcome your struggles and the summit can be only determined by yourself. Regardless of that, I will continue to hold a positive attitude when I’m faced with other struggles in the future.
“Never expect that the events of life are favorable all through,” an aphorism that my father tells me consistently and I think it is certainly true. I will eventually have to make continual struggles during the course of my life, whether I like it or not. I should never turn my back on it but face the issue patiently. I should be brave, courageous and confident. I believe if I pursue my life’s journey steadily and with tranquility through all the struggles I have to endure, success will eventually come. Additionally, this success perhaps will be another motivation for me to conquer another struggle in the future.
