'Life and death are in the power of tongue then why should misfortune befall me upon all my prayers'he thougt.
The weight of misfortunes were too much for him to bear.His sales and services business was dwindling by the day.He had to download more than half of his twenty employees.
As the weight grew by the day,Philip decideed to give up,but another thought came to him.
'This might be a life lesson for me,greater things may be coming my way'he told himself.
Three months after this experience things came to normal, the business grew beyond Philip's expectations.
Life is about movement.We move from one season to another.We also move from happiness to sadness,from poverty to wealth and vice versa.The basic rule of life revolves around changes.
Everybody has his or her story of the vicissitudes of life or commonly put the 'ups and downs' of life to tell.It is with patience,persistence and perseverance that we can cross the river of our life no matter how long the river is.
There is always an end to any condition,misfortunes come and go,then comes good new things,we learn from misfortunes and through them we experience the other side of life,misfortunes and drawbacks serve as the lessons of life.
