Do you feel less fortunate in life?

Life itself comes with many challenges for almost everyone, but the degree of these challenges differ. I think it would not be out of place to say that life is not fair to some people. There are people who have had to struggle through life right from childhood. Some people were born with physical disabilities, some suffered different forms of abuses, and some had to struggle with different forms of illnesses.

Most of the people in this category battle through life. Most of them are not living life, but struggling to survive. Sometimes, if not most times, they see life as something very worthless. It gets even worse if those around them do not treat them with special kindness and love. They become embittered, angry, prone to committing crimes and suicidal.

However, if you find yourself among this category of people, what would you do to help yourself?

You cannot help yourself by living in self-pity. You cannot help yourself by hating on those you feel are more fortunate than you are. You cannot help yourself by being angry with life. The only way you can help yourself, is to focus on the positives. No matter what life has taken away from you, for as long as you can breathe, there is still at least one thing to hold on to; focus on that thing.

It is also very important to seek help outside yourself. Feel free to talk about how your predicaments make you feel. Look for empathic people and make them your friends. Their kind and encouraging words would help a lot.

Also, do not fight what you cannot change. Accept yourself the way you are. You cannot change certain things about you, but you can change how you feel about them. It all starts from the mind.

Disassociate yourself from whatever poisons you mind to make you feel terrible. Stay away from toxic people, news and movies. Look for that thing that makes you happy, then focus your entire energy on it. Life might not have been fair to you, but you can choose to be fair to yourself.

I am sending out lights and love to everyone born with physical, mental or health issues.

I am sending out love to everyone who had horrifying childhood and are living the rest of their lives fighting the effects of those horrific experiences.

I am sending out lights and love to everyone suffering from one pain or another.

I pray for all of you, may you find the inner strength to live a happy life in spite of your predicaments.
