Greatness
Definition:
Unusually or comparatively large in size or dimensions; large in number; numerous; unusual or considerable in degree, power, intensity, etc.
Many people don't realize the level of faith, strength, love, grace, character, and many other positive human qualities and attributes that lie within them. It takes going through trials, tribulations, and hard times to cause people to see what is buried on the inside of them.
Often times you don’t know what's inside of you until you're faced with adversity. But if you allow them (the trials, etc.) they will bring out of you a strength in character that you didn’t even know existed. Often times one would be surprised as to the amount of courage that is actually in them until they're faced with one of the greatest challenges life can bring them.
One thing about life is that it doesn't need your permission to happen, to bring challenging circumstances, or the like, to your door; it just happens. What you have to learn to do is just deal with it but from a perspective of retrospect. The retrospect is remembering what you’ve already come through and the strength that was built in you before that will aid you in dealing with your present-day problem(s).
Life is not meant to crush you but make you better. The trials that come your way aren't meant to overtake you but make you stronger. They're all designed for one thing and one thing only: To help positively define the greatness that's already in you. You just have to learn to let it. You have to learn to deal with the pressure that life brings and many times it will happen at seemingly the most inopportune and inconvenient times. It is in times such as these that you must retrain your thought process to focus in on the fact that this is "making time" for you.
So no you have a decision to make: will you allow the circumstances that have presented themselves make you into what you were destined to be, shaping and forming you in the process? Or will you fold and crack under the pressure and ball up into a corner and cry, whine, and complain about how bad things are and be defeated? Greatness, many times, is made underneath the greatest of pressures, like a very valuable diamond. Make a conscious decision to be that jewel of great price.
