People are bombarded with problems everyday and I am sure that no one in this world is not facing any problems in their life.
Recently, a friend sent me an SMS saying that she needed my logical reasoning (maybe due to my love for numbers). She sounded really troubled so I replied asking her how I can help. She then told me about some family problems which made her feel that she is a failure. Not to dwell deeper into our conversation, but I tried my best to help her out.
My thoughts...
We are being criticized everyday either by people we treasure or others who are not even close to us. There are a number of ways to face this either we take it all and admit defeat, or turn it around and make it a challenge. Criticism if viewed positively can be a strong source of strength that can fuel us to be someone better. If viewed negatively, it will be the starting point of our defeat.
Mistakes are part of living and if you haven't made a lot of mistakes, then you haven't really lived a great life. We are taught that mistakes are bad, but it is the best teacher that one can have. We hear stories about defeat but unless we experience it, we can never really learn from it. A great example is listening to a big heartbreak from a friend where we tend to be so arrogant on telling them what should be done. But when we actually experience it, the feeling would be unexplainable. Life is not measured by the number of mistakes we made, but by how we stand up from those falls. We shouldn't judge others on how they started living, but more on how do they make a perfect ending.
We cannot change our past. Learn from our mistakes and try to make right whatever wrong we did. As long as we can breath, life is still giving us a chance to make a better ending.
