The worst thing that you can do right now is to delve into your misfortunes. And hate or blame someone for you failures.
I am just so happy right now because I choose to be happy. There are no reasons to be sad actually. So, right now, I will enjoy my life to the fullest.
Awhile back, I was walking home and it was dark. I know the dangers of going home too late. And so, I prayed. I prayed for safety and happiness while I will take my steps towards my home. I told God a line from the Bible, though I walk in the valley of death, I shall fear no evil, because I know that he is with me at all times.
Fear, Sadness, and Frustration have one and the same effect. They all stop you at your tracks and render you frozen from where you are. These emotions place a blindfold on you which makes you focus on the darkness first than on what you really have to do. Most of us give in to what they intend to make us feel and do. After that, it will be too late to realize that you wasted a lot of time on sulking in the corner. In fact, you can actually get over something more efficiently if you do two things. First, let yourself feel it. Second, stop and stand up from where you are.
Well, primarily, you have to choose to be happy. Everything will follow from then on. From my own experience, drinking alcohol and smoking too much is not a proper option but it is the easiest way to escape. By choosing the easy way means deciding to be weak or losing from the game of strength and courage. If you do choose to be weak, the effects are rapid but temporary. The feeling of depression will come back as a boomerang. It will hit you right in your face.
Then again, before you do anything, life will always be a matter of choice. You can dwell on that or not, You can stop or move on. You can do something or not.
The single mistake of people who give in to their problem is this: they think they have the biggest problem on earth. They are wrong because other people will claim otherwise. Other people, who like him, would rather choose to be weak. But then, deciding to make a wrong decision is unfair to those who are less fortunate than you. They struggle to survive while you give up. You failed to see that you deserve what you have that is why it was given to you. Like a paycheck from a month's pay, no one can have a right to enjoy that but you.
Thank you Lord for those people who helped me stand.
