He was a three year old when his father left never to return, a harrowing experience for a child at that age to grow without a father figure around. He grew up to become a young man that struggled with dyslexia making schooling difficult for him as he attended four different high schools, leaving the final one without a diploma. After losing a child which was a stillborn, his love who left him died in a car accident leaving him in a state of devastation yet he decided he was going to stick through it with a head held high rather than hung in defeat. He is an A-list actor with many top shot movies under his belt, like the popular Matrix franchise, Devil's Advocate, Constantine, Speed and so many other top ranked movies. Despite being $100 million dollars in net worth as a Hollywood star, he doesn't wear fancy clothes, does not have bodyguards and enjoys taking the subway. He needs no further introduction for he is Keanu Reeves who played the role of 'Neo' in the Matrix franchise.
I am talking to that man or woman who has undergone many tragic occurrences, I am talking to that child who has no parents and struggling to survive, I am talking to that man who has just lost his job for no fault of his own wondering where the next meal would come from and to that young woman who was dumped by that man whom the whole world thought would be getting married. I am not denying the fact that you are not going through pain of tragedy, I have had mine like going through several incidents of betrayal by those I called loved ones or walking a long way home on a cold and dark night on an empty stomach with no money in either of my pockets. What I would admonish is that never let the tragedy around you become a tragedy within you. There is hope for you reading this and I mean that with every fibre of my being just like that cold and bitter winter gives birth to warm and wonderful spring and summer. Then yours will be a story to help others out of the valley to the mountain top where you will be soon. To your success
