We all are blessed with the beautiful gift given by the Almighty Allah to us which is known as Life which is the reason for our existence. If life ends, this will lead to the end of our existence. But this life isn’t as easy or normal as people are expecting. It is totally diverse and different from our thinking. It teaches us various things both good as well bad things, etc. It shows us various paths and we experience various things.
It has different stages, and these stages are complicated tough, and at different stages, you have to respond to every stage with a unique approach, so that your life will be in proper equilibrium. As everyone knows Life changes with time, it’s one of my quotations that the “second name of the time is life.” So life and time both the things are both precious and both things have a relationship with each other.
We expect different things from our lives, but these are just expectations and our thinking analysis. Reality is somewhat totally different from these expectations. Expectations are mere up to our thinking, but the reality is somewhat not being thought or imagined. Reality happens suddenly and shocks everyone. But we must possess that potential to confront every reality of life with a braving attitude. We live in this world. We grow up in this world, and we come across different experiences of several things. There are conditions in our life when we feel happy and glad, but we have to also face situations of depression, sadness, anxiety, etc. The happiest situations are welcomed by every person as these situations bring a state of satisfaction, which we need in our lives. On the other hand, if we will have a look at these sad and depressing situations, no doubt we feel awkward, depressed, and confused while dealing with these situations but these situations are those which taught us several lessons in our life. People don’t prefer these situations and they have different blame for different things or people for these situations. But these are only sad situations which are defining you, making you strong. In these situations, different people have different approaches. Some give up in these situations, some balance and some learn lessons from these situations.
Being sad or depressed is not an evil or bad thing, in my opinion, it is a natural thing that happens to every individual, and it cannot be stopped by anyone. Surely we can overcome it by balancing our life. I believe these conditions and situations are for the betterment of our lives, for realizing the mistakes which we had done in past. I still remember that stage of my life when I was totally in a state of disturbance, which lead to depression.
I have been experiencing various cases of this thing. I myself had passed this stage when I was in 9th standard, I faced this stage and the reason was concerned with education. Many people fight with their destiny or fate that is why this thing happened to me. But it’s not in our hands, it’s a natural phenomenon. In these stages, people feel depressed, and in a state of confusion, where they are not able to sleep well, eat well and talk well. Simply that depression is pathetic for everyone who becomes the victim of it, and it’s
not easy in these stages.
Sometimes the victim cries, shows aggressive behavior, weeps continuously, and overthinks the problems being faced by him/her. He even blames his/ her luck and gets nervous in these situations. For the tranquility of his mind, he tries several ways and methods. But he has to believe that nothing works here except balancing yourself in this stage, as soon you will accept and confront the reality, it will be better for you.
You are the one who is facing it, and you are the one, who has to understand it and you are the one, who has to maintain himself/herself in this stage. Never lose hope as time heals every pain, every problem has an end, or it is solved with time. I know in these situations many think that now nothing will work so they give up, but to give up and stop your efforts is not the solution. Giving up is merely a foolish activity in these tough times.
Basically, these situations are a part of our life, so these are to be faced by everyone. But it’s my suggestion that doesn’t change your track, don’t try bad activities like committing suicide and all that stuff which will harm you. I know these thoughts emerge in your mind during these bad circumstances, but you have to balance them and confront them with courage.
Many boys, as well as girls, start smoking cigarettes and doing other stuff to making their bodies in a state of relaxation, but I request you to don’t believe in these myths and try to balance it in other ways, by mostly spending time with your parents and good friends.
Life is a mixture of sadness and happiness, but this gift of God is also beautiful like a plant that blesses with its flowers. Wait for better outcomes, which life will bring one day. Wait for that day which will convert your sadness into your happiness. So be patient and believe in God and believe in yourself and try to balance these things in your life. There are some hindrances that you have to face in your life, these hindrances and obstacles are actually building your stamina which will be the reason for tomorrow’s happiness.
In this short span of time, you have to struggle. You have to fight with these things. Living life is a little bit complicated but facing every situation with courage is the solution to balancing it. It’s life, living, enjoying, and valuing it are the principles of it. And don’t forget to thank God for this gift. Try to make it beautiful as it is beautiful.
