The special view from the top of the Mountain Everest could never be seen until you take the long, tough and sweaty way to trek up the mountain in order to reach the top. 

The rain forest has such beautiful places inside, it will take your breath away if you are willing to hike through the jungle and brave the hazards. 

Life is sometimes hard. You need to go through things in life where you have no influence on. I call it challenges. If you do not get challenged in life, you would remain on the same spot as where you started. We are born to evolve ourselves and not to lay lazy in bed or on a cuddly sofa. Humans are living longer, we are getting smarter.  

Todays populations have develop such profound capabilities for redesigning bacteria, plant, animals and of course ourselves that mutation and natural selection are no longer the primary determinants of which species survive and how they change over time. We also rushed through technology and we still are. My father told me stories about not even having a telephone. Yes I mean the old string telephone. He also liked to talk about his first car and what features it had in contrast to todays vehicles. Its even funny to imagine that airplane rides where too expensive for an average human.  Today nearly every person from the age 13-55 years own a smartphone. This high performance mini computer. Its just crazy how fast the humanity is evolving.  

But why should we take the long, difficult road if there is an easier option? The answer is simple. If we do not put a lot of energy, hard work and strength into our way to the top, we wont be able to gain the greater benefits and to see what a paradise is waiting for us at the end of our destination… 

Of course taking the hard way is not easy and you will fail at the beginning for sure, but please keep this following sentence in mind 

Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn

Many people are inpatient. I used to be too so this is normal. There is a lovely quote matching this topic 

"Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer. “ –William S. Burroughs

Please keep in mind that if we are kind, have a huge stamina and the will to get the best, our way is cobbled with safe bricks. 

I hope I could inspire you to sometimes take the difficult road instead of using the easy road. 

Thanks for reading 

Stay focused

Love, Soldier
