LOH contest 156/ No Giving Up

It's a beautiful day and I'm grateful, for another day with renewed hope that tomorrow will be better than today.
When I saw this prompt, the urge to write on it didn't leave me.

What makes you hold onto hope? Enlighten us on something you do to create a safe, positive space around yourself, to boost the belief or conviction to always look for the cloud with a silver lining, even if it means starting again?

My dad use to say this proverb when I was younger but a friend of mine that came over to my place some weeks ago, made me understand the proverb better. When I told her everything going on presently, she said that same proverb and I would not forget it in a hurry. That statement has been on my mind since then.
She said no matter how long the road is, it surely has an end

I've been a very positive person despite every medical and financial crisis I face and positive thinking helps me a lot to always believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel. At times my health challenge may drain me financially, that funds set aside for the year may all be gone, but once I'm back to my feet, I believe that for the fact that I am alive to witness another day, There is hope.

My positivity is not because I'm strong or been built to have so much faith but anytime I look at my kids and the joy they give me. I always want to live another day just to be with them.
I almost gave up at a time on on hospital bed but when I looked at my son's face, I thought about all the plans I have for him and how much I desire to watch him grow, The desire to live came back and I fought hard.

I'm fighting today and keep working hard despite all because I refuse to keep negativity in my mind. Whenever negative thought comes to mind, I shake it off with positive affirmations that I've pasted on the wall of my heart, on the wall in my room, in my kitchen. I say it to myself every day and night.

I'm not giving up because all my challenges today will become a thing of the past in the near future.

This is my response to Ladies of hive prompt of the week.

Yours truly @aunty-tosin 💕💕

Hello there!
There is so much power in positive thinking, yet, we sometimes fall short with feelings of despair, which restricts our brains from thinking positively. It's great that you have those proverbs that can be used as mantras to get you through. 🤗

Living life with a positive outlook is key to thriving in life. The world is so full of negatives, the best is to flow opposite current, which is being and staying positive.

Daily challenges sometime feel insurmountable, keep the attitude and the sayings daily, enjoy your son going on picnics or small events outdoors to keep happy and healthy.
