LOH Contest #249: Desire to Live [ENG/ESP]
Greetings to everyone in the Ladies of Hive community! This time, I'm joining you here to participate in community contest #249, with this entry. That said, let's begin.
We often reflect on what we've accomplished; how will you use this knowledge to keep moving forward?
During my 28 years, I think I've experienced several things that have undoubtedly given me certain insights thanks to all the experiences that have happened in my short life. Some were sought after (according to my goals and desires) and others simply emerged from life itself. To name a few (which are, let's say, the most anticipated according to society): completing all my studies, finding a job, starting a family (marriage), developing a passion (an art), and so on. I believe that's ultimately how the vast majority of human experiences unfold. But I believe that none of this would have been possible if I hadn't gone through a certain turning point when I was younger.
¡Saludos a a todos en la comunidad de Ladies of Hive! En esta oportunidad me uno por aquí para participar en el concurso de la comunidad #249, con esta que es mi participación. Dicho esto, comencemos.
A menudo reflexionamos sobre lo que hemos logrado; ¿cómo utilizarás este conocimiento para seguir avanzando?
Durante mis 28 años creo que he vivido varias cosas que me han hecho sin duda alguna ganar ciertos conocimientos gracias a todas esas experiencias sucedidas en mi corta vida. Algunas buscadas (según mis metas y anhelos) y otras simplemente surgiendo de la vida misma. Por nombrar algunas (que son digamos las más esperadas según la sociedad): culminar todos mis estudios, encontrar trabajos, hacer familia (matrimonio), desarrollar una pasión (un arte) y demás. Creo que así se mueven en definitiva la gran mayoría de las experiencias humanas. Pero creo que nada de eso hubiera sido posible de no haber atravesado cierto punto de inflexión cuando era más joven.
There was a particular moment, when I was more or less a little girl, when I felt truly disappointed in life. I had lived through an unpleasant experience that made me reflect a lot on my destiny in this world. I found the world and its people to be quite unfair and evil, so I didn't see the point in being a part of that (continuing to be here). It's a rather austere and pessimistic thought for someone so young, but that was the way it was. However, there was something in me that also insisted on giving life a chance, something like: "You're already here, why don't you stay to see what else might happen in the future?" It was that thought, and the curiosity I felt to know more about what would happen in the following years, that kept me going.
It seems unbelievable because at first I felt like I was living out of inertia, but little by little that stopped being that way, and I was able to become aware of my own life, feeling hopeful about the world again. I was able to truly enjoy life. Today, I move forward not only because of that thought, but because of my will to live, and I believe that is a fundamental fact. An invaluable piece of knowledge. More than anything, having the will to live was my most significant achievement and what helps me continue every day doing the best I can in this world. After that, everything becomes grace and beauty, because one is grateful for the good, the bad, and everything. I certainly think I've engaged in a bit of catharsis in the post, but I think it's part of it. My apologies if it's a bit intense or if I stray a bit from the question, but this is my personal experience. Without further ado, thank you so much for stopping by.
Hubo momento en particular, cuando era más o menos una niña, en el que me encontraba realmente decepcionada de la vida. Había vivido una experiencia nada grata y que me hacía reflexionar mucho sobre mi destino en este mundo. Encontraba que el mundo y las personas solían ser bastante injustas y malvadas, por lo que yo no veía sentido en ser parte de eso (seguir aquí). Es un pensamiento bastante austero y pesimista para alguien tan pequeño, pero así era. Sin embargo, había algo en mi que también me insistía en darle una oportunidad a la vida, era algo cómo: "ya estás aquí ¿por qué no te quedas para ver qué otras cosas pueden darse en el futuro?". Fue ese pensamiento y la curiosidad que sentía por saber más sobre lo que se venía en los siguientes años, lo que me hizo seguir adelante.
Parece mentira pues un principio sentía que vivía por inercia, pero poco a poco eso dejo de ser así y pude ser consciente de mi propia vida al sentirme nuevamente esperanzada sobre el mundo. Logrando disfrutar realmente de la vida. Hoy avanzo no solo por ese pensamiento, sino por mis ganas de vivir y creo que eso es un hecho fundamental. Un conocimiento invaluable. Más que cualquier cosa, tener ganas de vivir, fue mi logro más significativo y lo que me ayuda a seguir día a día haciendo lo mejor que puedo en este mundo. Ya luego de ello, todo se vuelve gracia y belleza, porque uno es agradecido por lo bueno, lo malo y por todo. Sin duda creo que he hecho un poco de catarsis en la publicación, pero creo que forma parte de. Mis disculpas si resulta un poco intenso o se desvío un poco de la pregunta, pero está es mi experiencia personal. Sin más que decir, muchísimas gracias por pasar por aquí.

Greetings 🤗 so as I understand it. I think when you are smaller you can come to see things more intensely. As the years go by, one's vision changes and everything can become more optimistic. In any case it is also a matter of putting one's own efforts. A hug, thanks for your support.
Taking control of action when older we are able to do something, when young we feel helpless simply from an age perspective. 🤗
I am saddened that you experienced such a way of life... I was very pessimistic at that age as well, I didn't want to continue.
But I truly believe hope will always be louder, because despite having a plan, I still had that conscience thought: "There is still a possibility that everything can change." Thankfully, it did 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing. It's important for others to know that they are never alone! ❤️
