Brave...Not Perfect

I smile yet it does not mean everything is okay. Do you always feel that you have to paint a happy life, even though it is a mess? Trying to avoid what might be, just so that you can get through the day. Well, life is not in our control and will never be the way we plan or as perfect as we want. We as humans, go through a lot to get where we are. Some of us had no choice but to face a war as soon as we took our first breath. Being brave means we collect the seen and unseen scars and build a bridge for ourselves to connect with the blessings that are given to us. In each moment of our journey we keep moving and not let the wars or storms prevent us from doing what others call impossible. We face so many fears and insecurity in life, that shapes us to become warriors. Our courage and faith, help us to see something more in life, for we are standing tall among the dust. We overcome the challenges because we are brave, not because we are perfect.
