Inspiration of the week

in #life7 years ago (edited)

So last weekend I went hiking and boy was it so much fun, but it was very challenging. Often I thought to myself, "why on earth am I doing this".

We got to the area to hike around 7am and started our long journey up the hill. I got to the top and I was dead. I thought life was really hard at that moment.

A few minutes later a runner came past us, around 8am, it was strange to find a runner on a hiking trail. After some time more came past us and we realized some marathon was going on, or something like that.

I related this to life and how we think our lives are tough and unbearable, but there is always someone else that has it even tougher.

Realizing this, I will never complain or get despondent because of what happens around me. Everyone has their struggles and their story to tell, so just because bad things happen doesn't mean you are the only one going through hard times.

Rightly said @dragonslayer109

Most people tend to think their situation is the worst, you might see someone smiling but you don't know what he/she is going through. The smile is to cover their suffering. More like

suffering and smiling

You might be going through hard times but out there, someone is going through a situation tougher than yours. Hard times don't last forever.

You said exactly what was on my mind

So true! But that what you see, use it to inspire you to be the best version of your self :)
Peace

we should keep learning along the way and we should not be afraid of commiting mistakes :)

Well sir, thats life for you in a nutshell. If you think you are going through a rough patch,someone is worse off, if you think you are having the best of times someone somewhere is having a better deal. The point is be GRATEFUL for small things so that bigger things will be given unto you.

Someone out there always has it worse. I always think of the positives, while not ignoring the negative, I try to be grateful for whatever it is that life throws at us.




Feel ok to make mistakes too





Have a wonderful day
