At some point in life, we all face difficulties and adversity and need others to help us overcome them, and there are also times when we can be the helping hand for someone else. Human beings were created with a dependency on each other for survival. Lean on your loved ones – in this individualistic society, we must remember that we need each other and that we depend on solidarity with one another in order to strengthen and empower one another. Love is a fundamental human need – without it, we could not live a fulfilling life. Love allows us to fully enjoy the good times and suffer with dignity during the hard times.
Be eager to help those around you when they need you, without ever letting others become emotionally dependent on you. Do not expect to transform others because everyone must find their own strength. As much as we try, we cannot prevent our loved ones from suffering at some point, but be that as it may, those experiences may also be valuable for personal growth and will help us to embark on our paths and remain unshaken in the face of adversity.
There are times to give and there are times to receive, and we have to learn to distinguish them and be receptive in both cases. Be kind to those around you, be both sympathetic and empathetic, and help guide your loved ones towards good decisions and let them do the same for you. Let us hold hands and walk together towards peace and let’s all support each other in our own unique, individual paths. Nevertheless, we all need to find the strength within ourselves in order to be able to cope with each day no matter how difficult and painful it may be at certain times in life. Each person is responsible for waking up every morning and deciding how they will tackle the trials and tribulations of the day.
The love and support of our family members and friends can help appease the grief we feel but if we ourselves do not set ourselves the challenge of facing each day with our heads held high, we will never reach true inner peace. To suffer is inevitable and in our journey through this world, we must learn to cope with each challenge with fearlessness and experience each emotion with courage. Build your happiness within yourself so that then you may share it with the people around you. Look beyond the gloom and always remember that dawn is always just around the corner.
