Adversity will be overcome when one becomes brave , determined , and has the willingness to fail.As being born without a arm, baseball player Jim Abbott, had a long journey ahead of him.Or the brave runners who ran the Boston Marathon after two bombs went off at the finsh line. last year.Even Malala Yousafzai, a young who got shot in the head by the taliban because she thought that girls all girl should get an education.All of these people remember to maintain in control , be brave , and accept failure when overcoming adversity.

When adversity strikes, am I a carrot, egg, or coffee bean? That is a complex metaphorical question that requires thoughtful deliberation before being answered. A carrot, egg, and coffee bean all respond to the same adversity (boiling water) in different ways. A carrot enters boiling water strong and hard, but comes out weak and soft. When an egg enters boiling water it is fragile, but afterwards the inside becomes hard. The coffee bean that is subjected to boiling water actually changes the water and releases a pleasant fragrance and flavor. Responding to adversity the way a coffee bean does would probably be the best option, but I do not feel that I respond like a coffee bean during every adverse situation I face. In reality, I feel that I respond to varying situations in different ways, as a carrot, egg, and coffee bean.

Howard Schultz believed “In times of adversity and change, we really discover who we are and what we’re made of.” What I think this means is you don’t know how much you can handle till you go through it.

Life without adversity is like a human without characteristics. No matter how your life goes, adversity will always be there. Merriam-Webster states that adversity is a difficult situation or condition: misfortune or tragedy. My life in the past 9 years has had many events that has caused my family many difficulties that have been very hard to get past. Being told that my dad was a cheater was the hardest thing to hear. The thought of him being with 2 other women during my parents’ marriage was the most disgusting thing to hear. I never imagined I would ever hear this about my dad. After this happened, moving on in my life was a major thing I had to do, supporting my sister and mom was important, and being able to move past it and trust people again was crucial.

I chose the power quote “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” –Abraham Lincoln. I chose this quote because facing adversity is tough but it can still be overcame but power on the other is often taken way too far and the people who have the power are controlling and become upset if you don’t agree or oppose them. So I agree with the idea that is expressed in this quote because everyone faced adversity on a daily bases but not everyone gets to experience power. If you look into the past at dictators like Hitler and Mussolini the faced their own adversity and overcame it but when they got power they abused it and they used it to their advantage and they ended up staring World War 2.
