SEC13 WK5 : We are not perfect!

Hello community friends! I welcome you all to my blog this week. This is my second engagement for the week and it was my pleasure coming around here to make my entry into this noble community. As humans, we strive to always become better versions of ourselves, and this over time brings so much anticipation to work positively on ourselves. This over time increases our needs and wants as we anticipate perfection in all we do. Let's get into the business of the day.

As humans, most of our needs are insatiable. In this state of want, even when we've achieved some of the set-out goals, we still find ourselves wanting more. When I was a new graduate, I anticipated securing a job and when the job came months later, my wants changed to something else. Anyway, in the context of this contest, I desired a partner who is not only a spouse but my friend. Friendship to me is something that is the bedrock of our future as husband and wife. Even when love fades away over time, friendship still bonds them together.

What I wanted was a decent home, a peaceful home with a combination of kids that brings me joy. This is the primary need of every man out there and I was chanced to get this offer as anticipated. I am married to my friend and the love of my life together we can withstand the trials of the world. With us already are two lovely kids in our midst and they are all anyone would desire.

The rush and hugs they run to get when I'm home are amazing and this is really one act that shows affection and love in expression. The echo of their voices "Dad, Dad, Dad, is back" is one that makes me feel wow. It reminds me of my responsibility to them. it goes beyond this as I always forward to buying them a gift while coming back to help stir up their mood more.

My fears have always been a domestic accident or ill health. These are mostly two fearful scenarios that get me worried at all times. I have continued to ensure there are fewer damages should incase there are incidences of any home accident. This takes me extra effort to be on the look to remove sharp objects and items from passable areas to limit human interference. But these are just the best we can do and hope they play reasonably since kids are always in their own world while playing without knowing the consequences when they fall. anyone with male kids would understand better.

Falling ill is another path that scares me since they are mostly tender to explain how exactly they feel unlike adults who can explain in detail and the symptoms dedicated. We've had situations that resulted in them being taken to the hospitals and they got treated since simple first aid may prove abortive due to their inability to be expressive at their ages.

My strength is a function of how much I try to stay positive with events around me We all know that we draw strength from our God Almighty when we are down and burdened. Our supplications and pouring out our hearts bring some form of relief.

Staying peaceful is also one thing that creates an ambiance of strength in me. A heated and unpeaceful environment comes with a lot of negative energy and hence depletes us rather than adds to us for good. I am naturally peaceful and try as much as I can to create that ambiance of positivity around me. This has been my striving strength to live right with commensurate growth.

Humility, Love, and Kindness is another great virtue that adds strength to me. It brings me peace, joy, and empathy to all. We are human and need to always give back to humanity by way of showing concern, empathy, and care at all times. And this is to the needy, most especially.

These are usually those behavioral patterns that keep us on the low. I may have little temperament concerns when things aren't done the way it is or when taken for granted. This may be a result of anger which needs to be controlled and tamed so as not to further cause damages either through word of mouth or other actions taken. This has been very much taken into consideration as I now mostly walk away from the sot or keep mum.

There are many things I do to be a better version of myself which range from improving myself educationally to attending seminars that are deliberate on families and how much we live right. Most times, the exposure we gain through academic advancement also open us up to better ways of handling ourselves and improving the living condition that benefits everyone around us. I am looking at having some post-study education that impacts and makes me a better person economically and all around.

Working on some temperaments that don't portray us in a good light is another way I've ensured to be a better person. No matter how we try, living with another comes with a lot of tolerance and hence we have to step up and better to bond always. We just have to be better versions of ourselves irrespective of how good we feel we've attained.

Being perfect cannot be achieved just by mere words and trying to achieve this is a ling that lands us being better versions of ourselves without attaining perfection. We have to always create balance in all we do so as to create harmony at all times as well as foster peace and love that are drivers of our growth.
