Tomorrow I will fight again by Joseph bentem

We had a little gist with our parents yesterday and they reminded me of my very mischievous childhood days.

One interesting memory was when I was in primary 2, I came back home with scratch marks on my face.

I’d gone to fight my elder brother’s class mates in primary 5

When mum asked me me what happened
I told her, I was beaten but ‘I Will Fight Again Tomorrow’ – And I did.

That’s life for you:

You’re beaten only if You remain on the ground.
You’re Beaten if You do nothing about yesterday’s adversity.
You’re Beaten if You accept defeat.

I took up The #30 days challenge last month
But I wasn’t able to finish because I didn’t feel like writing on the last day of The Challenge.

… But I’ve got to get back to Unfinished Business.

You may have dropped out of school – fight again

You may have given up on your dreams and visions – fight again

You may have stopped praying and reaching out – fight again

#30 days challenge
#day 30
#30 days later
