Experience: Poverty, Loss.... A Scope Of Diversity

avatar

IMG_2187-01.jpeg


Being born is a gift, experiencing life to the fullest of events and experience is a rarer opportunity. This is because this experience is a race... A marathon where people fall by the wayside (die) and unable to complete the experience. life is an endless pursuit, a bridge that's unsteady with many beautiful experiences ahead.

The universe packs endless possibilities that are waiting to be attended to, but the means (money, health, and time) to attend these experiences might not be given to everyone.

Reality is harsh too inasmuch as being born is beautiful, it is you versus life, the endless task to conquer several adversities. Some people are born equipped, hence, winning becomes easier. When people face easier battles in life, their possibilities of success become even higher.

However, we cannot determine the battle we fight in life, we only hope we're born lucky into favorable circumstances. We cannot determine the circumstances were born into, just like we cannot determine the body our consciousness is born into.

For example, people who were born into slavery back in the day consider themselves unlucky. This is because they weren't just born into deprivation, they were born to be owned against their will. This is the opposite of people who were born free, they saw life from a different scope, different dimensions, and different angles.

So because of the diversity of human nature, people are born to experience life differently and because of this phenomenon of difference, people cannot have the same journey, luck, or learning curve.

To some, life is just a ditch, a cocoon they were forced into, while to others, life is beautiful. In reality, I feel like we're just vessels at birth, and our notion of life or the universe is fuelled by the things that happen to us.

I see life as a challenge, a challenge is not necessarily a bad thing

.....it might just be a series of "tasks" that make us what and who we are. The task of overcoming ignorance is education. Overcoming poverty is embarking on a journey of financial freedom so that we can have the means to obtain the good things in life.

Being able to overcome some of the default challenges of life becomes a responsibility, one that makes our experiences colorful.

In reality, life is a problem, a yarn waiting to be unfurled,

......and sometimes we're unlucky and never get to the finishing line. Never experiencing life to the finish line can be saddening. Irrespective of our different stories, angles, and points of view. Life is supposed to be beautiful. How hard, unbearable, or how difficult it becomes is because we're unlucky, and this isn't to be blamed on life itself.

A large percentage of why we think life might be terrible is caused by human mistakes. Most of the time, the depth of consequences creates ripple effects which become a major determinant of how the lives of people turn out to be.

We're meant to be empty slates, but the power of influence and impact makes people inherit battles or wars they might not be able to conquer. Not everyone is equipped to win. No matter how mentally strong we are, some battles are predestined to mar people who have done nothing to inherit them.

However, it boils down to human experience again.

Someone who has never experienced slavery, racism, stark poverty, sickness, or loss, cannot see from these scopes or angles. This is why it's difficult for a person to completely capture the diverse human experiences of people in one lifetime.

Our time is extremely short and limited, this is why we cannot judge the pain or experience of other people from one scope, because we can never tell how it is from where we stand, no matter how hard we try.

Poverty is underestimated, especially by people in stable economies.

This isn't because people choose to be like this, it's because we can only truly learn or understand what we've truly experienced. Life is a theory to anyone who is a third person in any phenomenon.

However, in the end, we can only hope to be lucky, lucky to have a clean slate, to experience better raising. Born in good health without deformities, or serious health encumbrances, extreme poverty, or inherited battles that were there before you.

Life is supposed to be beautiful. How hard, unbearable, or how difficult it becomes is because we're unlucky

You made a lot of points on this post but I am moved to talk about this

Indeed, life is supposed to be beautiful. Many lucky ones are experiencing such a beautiful, soft and easy life, some people are just unlucky. Even those born into poor family, most times, they grow with grace and experience turn around, thus a beautiful life. Atimes, we struggle to do what others are doing to succeed but sometimes too, our expectations are being cut short.

However, I love your ending part of this post . We can only hope to be lucky to experience a good life devoid of several challenges.

Thank you, again I feel that sometimes, some people are lucky, others are not. For example, my brother was not so lucky, he could have been, but the battles and conditions of the battles overcame him irrespective of how well he fought. Sometimes, people are lucky to fight and win, some people are not no matter how hard they try.
At the end of the day, we can only count on luck, because we don't choose how or where we're born, how what we want to be born like.

A large percentage of why we think life might be terrible is caused by human mistakes. Most of the time, the depth of consequences creates ripple effects which become a major determinant of how the lives of people turn out to be.

Mysteries of life are such that one can never get all the answers one desires, from different perspectives, life presents itself as a maze which only the Creator can unravel. But I must say that human mistakes do play a very significant role in shaping the experiences of many . Alot of situations, regrettably avoidable, has packed up destinies and rendered many lives rather useless. Some get a chance at amendment while others never have the opportunity to.
Many claps for a Post well written.

What can I say, i feel that we Mostly neglect our mistakes as one of the reasons for our misfortunes. If humans can do better, in attempts to recitify some of our consequential mistakes. I think 50% of human problems will be solved. Thank you for the comment.

You are not far from the truth. Life challenges are the things that makes us humans. If we face them with boldness, It shape us and strengthen us in each space.

Anyone who has not experienced something in this life will never know how it feels
It is just like the way you talked about people who have not tasted poverty. They will think life is easy and supposed to be easy for everyone but it is a lie
Life hard pass that one, lol

Exactly, when we've never experienced something for ourselves, we can never truly talk about how it feels. Poverty and loss and death, takes experience to understand them.

I always feel like despite the endless possibilities in life, we all have limited choices to make on our journey through life, although we sometimes perceive it differently. I think this also reminds us how the destination is not guaranteed and it's quite futile to be fixated on it. Human experience is vast and multifaceted, and we usually experience a fraction of it in a lifetime, depending on the cards we've been dealt with at birth.

There are a lot of things people understand and I also wouldn't be able to understand a lot of the things happening. There is just so many experiences and knowledge that I am missing to really say much about those. I do think that even bad experiences such as poverty can help people in the future though. I understand the value of money more because my family didn't have much money when I was growing up.

We cannot experience everything altogether. The human experience is relatively vast and sometimes, life's just too short for one to experience everything. We only hope not to experience the worst of humanity

It is quite sad, how life can be so unfair, regardless of how one is born, one will still face problems and challenges it just differ on how many challenges or how the challenges weigh.

You have said it all. There are opportunities that some people don’t just obtain and it so hard to judge them based on what you see.

This is a very nice piece.

The day we are born, the journey starts where we have to face all the thins and thicks. We come across harsh realities, mirthful moments, and many life lessons. This is how life goes.
We can not live a life of our own choice. We are bound to our destiny as well but yet we can at least hope and pray for being lucky.

It is just like that no one will go to face difficulties and problems in his life but they will surely come with time and only that person is successful in this world who knows how to go with them and keeps working hard. And after some time success comes.
