One thing I recently learned that this life is not what I believed it is, a few years back, after reading many so-called self help books? But now my perception of life totally changed after striking with reality. The reality of life is completely different.
What life is not:
1. Life is not certain: Anything can go wrong anytime like- a loved one will pass away, you will get fired from the job, a deadly sickness and the list goes on and on. For example a student from India who was studying medicine in Ukraine got killed in the very first month of the war. Nobody would have thought about this fate of his.
2. Life is not a cake walk: It is definitely not a cake walk. You will meet tragedies in life that you have never expected. You will encounter heartbreak sometimes from your loved ones, sometimes from strangers. Sometimes these tragedies are so terrible that they will break your soul.
3. Life is not a Party:
What life is:
1. Life is Hard:
"To the wise, life is a problem; to the fool, a solution." Marcus Aurelius
If you are a conscious person, that probably you are as you are reading this, then life would not be easy for you. It is definitely not easy to digest that innocents are being killed in the war like in Ukraine, Palestine, etc for no fault of theirs.
Way Forward:
"Take it as an Adventure" Padder Zahoor
Life is going to test you at every point on the way. You have two options to approach that one is to cry on your fate and blame others for whatever is happening in your life. The other thing that I personally applied is take every test as an adventure and gain the experience and learning from it. Be proactive and plan in advance what will come next, what will go wrong and so on. Embrace it, deal with it, fight with it and sometimes let go. After sometime you will have a different life altogether.
