A strong support system Not everyone enjoys that.
Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. There are so many things that we enjoy as individuals, and we feel like we are entitled to them but do not know that it is actually a privilege to have access to such things because many people long for them but never get the opportunity to experience them. One thing I have come to realize with life is that no matter how bad you feel your situation is, there is someone who wants to have what you have; there is someone who would do anything in the world to enjoy what you see as normal. Some of the things we overlooked and felt like they were supposed to be were all privileges, but we did not see them as such.
Growing up as a kid and even now as an adult, I got to enjoy a lot of privileges, though I did not see many as that until I gave it a thought. I was not born into a wealthy family, but we never lacked. We did not have it all, but all our basic needs and sometimes even wants were provided without even asking. Back then, I used to feel like after all, it was my parents' duty to make those provisions for me, but now as a grown-up, I have come to realize that there were also kids like me just in my neighborhood whose parents failed to make any provisions for them; instead, they preferred to spend their money on themselves, leaving the kids needs and wants unattended to.
During my primary school and junior high school days, I attended a private school, which was quite expensive considering the economy then and the amount we were paying for tuition fees and transport to and fro. A lot of privileges were overlooked, and it felt like it was supposed to be. When it comes to the number of privileges I have enjoyed and still enjoy, I can actually go on and on because the list is quite long, though I never realized many were privileges until it dawned on me when I came to realize that a lot of people did not have the opportunity to experience such.
One of the privileges that I have enjoyed and still enjoy is a very strong support system. I have a family that only wants to see you win and is willing to do anything it takes to help you win and attain your desired standard. Life might not always be rosy and a smooth sail, but trust me, with a strong support system, you will not feel it so badly, unlike when you are fighting a battle alone. When you do it alone, you feel it more, but with a strong support system, the burden and sadness that come with the struggles of life are reduced and lessened. A strong support is a blessing; if you have one, cherish and love it because not everyone has people backing them up and rooting for them.

It's just what it is; many people don't have the same privilege we have, and yes my family is one big privilege. I remember when I believe it is impossible not to eat for a day because I always three more than 5 times a day. My thinking changed when my dad lost his job and I had to experience the dark side of life.
There are certain things we have experienced and don't pray to ever experience it. Thank God you and your family came out fighting and standing strong.
Family is surely the best support system
It makes a lot of sense that when we’re fighting battles alone, we feel the impact but reverse is the case when we have help. Having a support system is truly something we underrate.
