CONTEST- 4.33 LOOKING BACK/LOOK FORWARD #CCC

Am excited to be here as this is my first post here on this community. I appreciate @wakeupkitty for hosting this contest.

Am here to write on the contest looking back/forward 4.33 and i hope you enjoy my entry.

Looking back- life they say is not a bed of roses. I remember when life gave me a hard knock, i felt abandoned by family years back. I remember how i had to work part time while schooling to support my self with little finances so that i could catch up with academics. There were times when i had to even go without food and no one knew about.
Once i was sick to the point of death but i did not die. There were times when i needed to make decisions that would lead to my moving forward or going backward. What about 2020 when the covid pendemic broke out in the city where i lived, it was a pleasant experience, i had to stay lockdown at home for more than 8months without moving outside the house, you cant buy and you cant sell. I have had several experiences that could have broken me, although i was heart broken but i was not broken i kept my hopes high and today the story is changing, the story has changed.

Looking forward- life has really changed for me, i enjoy the company of friends and family. I have graduated from school, food is no longer an issue for me, the lockdown is over here in my country, i have good friends that encourages me when it gets tough. My life may not be so perfect right now but my life is definitely not what it use to be. Everyday i make conscious efforts to better my life and have a great future. I have plans to become the best of me financially, mentally and spiritually. I love growth and i am determined to see myself there some day. I want to get to the point where i will be able to help my society by becoming a financial pillar to them. I could render any financial help needed especially to young ladies and men too.

I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to write here in this community.
