Hardships, problems, tend to make us stronger as many people call them but I believe every hardship is a stone thrown at us, it is trying to make us strong, make us tough but at the same time, it leaves cracks in us. Those cracks give us pain that cannot be explained and upon hitting on those cracks, again and again, we feel weaker, those cracks let out the motivation in you which you try to fill despite knowing the fact that it can get spilled again.
The most interesting thing about cracks is they are strong, tough and weak at the same time. Usually where a crack stops in something is the strongest place but the place where it hits is also the weakest. I still do not know if time would be able to heal those cracks or will they leave a scar. Every day you are forced to run in a race that you do not even want to, you do your very best to stay away from the herd, to take the path you want but the world pushes you to the path it wants.
On that path, you meet things that give you pain and takes everything that made you relax leaving only cracks. This does not mean that the path you wanted to take would not have given you scars but it would have let you remain you. but the path is a war zone that you cannot move back from. But a lot of times the only thing you can do is march forward because time works in mysterious ways and you never know that around the corner, one day you may meet yourself again.
