My journal of 6th November reflects a tapestry of sweet and sour experiences, each contributing to my growth!

Dear Diary,
Although I consistently share my thoughts and experiences with you internally, today, I have chosen to articulate them through writing for the first time in quite a while.

Whenever I seek to commit a particular day to memory, I turn to you so that, should my mind fail to retain the experience, you may assist me in recalling it and in fostering personal development.

Throughout our journey, we encounter a diverse array of individuals in both our personal and professional spheres;
yet we tend to remember two distinct categories of people.

• The first category consists of those who motivate us to live, love, and illuminate; a path through which we can affect meaningful change.

• The second category includes those who expose us to the most challenging or detrimental experiences.

In both instances, it is imperative to develop the maturity necessary to discern;
which individuals warrant our continued association and which should be left behind.

Today, I had the privilege of engaging with old friends on Discord. We shared laughter;
Provided guidance to a newbie and recounted past experiences—this captures the essence of life.

While it is unrealistic to expect every day to unfold according to our plans, we can endeavour to spend our time meaningfully during certain moments.

Excuses represent disorders rather than diseases;
While various diseases can be effectively treated with medicine,
disorders cannot!

This distinction informs my perspective on individuals who rely heavily on excuses and fail to recognize the value of hard work that supports their resilience.

I have opted to distance myself from specific individuals, as one negative influence can adversely affect a group if they remain together.

Furthermore, I have observed that, despite our claims of being educated, many individuals lack the ability to communicate and respond with the necessary gentleness towards others.

Our interactions with others reflect our upbringing, and we must endeavour to avoid causing harm with our words;
Whether in direct conversation or when speaking about others in their absence.

It's fundamental to acknowledge that my beliefs may not resonate with everyone; however, they are an integral part of my identity.

After dedicating a significant amount of time to activities on Discord, I decided to transition to ordering supplies online.

As the month commences, I must formulate a comprehensive list of my expenses, which encompasses rent, electricity bills, phone bills, DTH bills, flat maintenance fees, and water bills. Subsequently, I will need to allocate funds for groceries and additional items.

I have already settled my electricity bill on 1st November, provided that the due date is the 5th, and my immediate focus must now shift to securing the payment for my rent.

I apprehend that everyone is on their unique journey, but I firmly believe that compromising our health, finances, and mental well-being—both personally and professionally—demonstrates a lack of appreciation for the life we've been granted. It is essential to honour and respect each day we receive.

Those who have everything handed to them easily;
often miss the real significance of overcoming challenges, especially when facing them alone. However, I take pride in the fact;
the Almighty has created me to stand concrete like a pillar rather than a climber.

Thank you, God. Whenever people try to pull my confidence down, play with my weaknesses for them, or backstab me, you provide me with the strength to stand again with the same enthusiasm!
