Everyone has experienced difficulties, big and small. They are merely trials that one have to undertake in order for one to grow up. Heres one of my "trial" recently.
It was a few days back, when I was on my home back from a refreshing swim at the swimming complex near my home. As I was cycling, my mind was so full of the stuff I needed to do when I got home that I only looked up when I heard a loud growl in front of me. Looking up, to my horror, I saw a huge and ferocious looking hound that I had never encountered. Feeling scared and nervous, I had half mind to turn around and use another route to head back home. Too late! I was already "face to face" with the hound before I even noticed it. It was hard to think at that time; I just wanted to run away from its snarling mouth. I quickly cycled sideways, to avoid the dog and escape at the same time. But the dog, as though seeing me as a delicious prey, started chasing me at top speed. I panicked and paddled even faster, looking back every few seconds to check if the hound was still chasing. It, however, seemed to be worn out after all that run, and gave up. I heaved a sigh of relief.
From this, I realised that no matter what difficulty you face, most of the time you can solve it just by relying on your instincts, although some are not the case. We must learn from our mistakes through them and prevent them from happening again.
