Why Then Do We Keep Playing?
We all agree that living life is like playing a game when you stop playing you stop living. Life is actually in stages that's why a new born baby do not just start to walk but begin after some month with crawling before staggering to stand well then the walking process begins, so to me life is in such stages as well as accomplishing ones purpose or dreams. For today I would be answering the question "why" relating it to the issues of life, so before going further I would like to say that most times when we ask such questions like why try again? Why hustle hard? It paints the picture of uncertainty about tomorrow or about what we would see ahead, it is showing the fears that are building up within us over what life holds for us.
We often put death in every decision we make which to me limits the achievement of such person, if at the end we die then we ought to use this opportunity positively given to us to live life to the fullest not leaving any stone unturn, our striving is not to live in this bitter world forever but to live our part and go when we are done, we hustle so hard even though we know we would be gone tomorrow because we actually need financial covering, we want to owe our own not dependent on anyone for help always and be a burden while living so we hustle to fend for ourselves and they people looking up to us or around us.
Even when we fail we keep trying and trying and trying because we never can tell when it would be our luck, we keep trying not because we are not permitted to fail but because we have people around who are our pushing force, who supports us and keep telling us we are the best even when you feel like a failure, we sometimes keep trying because we want to put smiles on the faces of our loved ones and we also keep trying because we look at others who have climbed higher and we also believe that we can get their, we use these people as our role models which their life experiences guide us to someone better or to get the good out of life.
If we honestly look back we would see that life is not all about the negative aspects we smiled at a point, we laughed out our belles, we were cared for, nurtured and we felt loved at that moment so if not for anything life is worth it because of these little little moments and sincere people around us. To be honest even me at some point ask myself why must we go through this hardship is it really worth it because you would just be going through stuffs which seem unending but the answer is not in quiting life rather it is in pressing forward, some people actually gets through life so easy that they do not know what surviving at a time like this is.
They do not even know what failure is but they have always had ways paved for them to easy learning, so if the question is why fail before learning then only those with experience can answer this call, the learning is in the failing it is when someone fails that he sees his weak points and tend to work on it, that process of rising from failure is the act of learning. The point of these whole drama is that there is a reason that you are still living today and that is what we call your purpose or driving force. It hasn't been easy and it never gets easy infact the higher we go in life the deeper life becomes complicated for us, even those who are wealth also have it rough at their end so the point is there is no point you would see one gets that is void of life badge.
So since we know that already we try not to look like our problems, we try not to let it weight us down, we try not to let it make us bitter towards life and people which would make us dissatisfied, beyond everything and everyone God is my motivation and my loved ones tend to keep me moving, with God been my motivation I am covered with grace, favour, blessings, His presence, mercy and many more so I have no reasons to give up on life each day I get up.

It's true, life can feel overwhelming and uncertain sometimes, but yeah, there's always a reason to keeping going. And it's true we are not expected to figure it out at once, life is in stages. We stumble, we learn and we grow
Exactly, just in stages. Thank you for this great input
Happenings in life can make us want to quite, but we shouldn't let it get the best of us, with resilience and determination we'll sail through and live in impactful life in a worth that seems to be imbalance.
I love the point of you saying impactful life worthy of living in a world that seems imbalance, thanks for this input.
Your post is very very thoughtful and real. Life truly has stages, challenges, and moments of doubt, I really love the reason you listed on why we should keep going: for our purpose, for those who depend on us, for the small joys, and for God’s grace. A lesson has been learnt today... thank you
I really appreciate your comments, it's through life experiences that we tend to relate. Thank you very much
God should be our number 1 motivation. As long as we have him, we can achieve anything.
Yes we have God as our motivator and our push force, so we always acknowledge Him as our number. Thank you for commenting
