EVERYONE IS A GENIUS BY MARTIN BECK NWORAH

I came across a post yesterday and it really soothe my heart.
"Everyone is a genius,but trouble starts when you begin to judge a
fish by its ability to climb a tree". It really made sense to me. Many
times,we judge our ability by what we see others doing or what our
peers have achieved at a particular age but we've not. We feel because
we are better academically than others,it must translate to success in
real life. So when we don't receive that which we ordinarily feel is
ours,we begin to doubt our ability and faith in God.
But wait,some where along the line,I have a strong feeling that we
don't really accept our self the way we are and judge our self
honestly. Everyone is destined to succeed but at a different pace.
Every individual is in this race of life alone and trying to convince
someone that running faster than he should on a different life track,
is denying the person a golden opportunity to discover himself and
become great. Everyone is unique and special. Everyone can succeed,but
we must always have it at the back of our mind that life is not a
straight forward race. Everyone is a genius. And we can discover this
fact if we strive hard and discover our true calling in life. It is
not easy I know and nobody promises us a bed of roses. We must make
the rose our self and welcome the thorns it comes with. We can all
succeed and enjoy the good things of life;but we must work hard and
grow at our own pace. There is no rush. Tiny drops of water will
certainly get you to that Promised Land. We are in this race together
and I know God will certainly see us through. Till we get to the
Promised Land,I shall be waiting for when you will pass me a glass of
water and thank God for the gift of grace for the race.
