When one is hurt and emotionally unstable, its hard to imagine that anything in the world could be right. One remembers all their woes, their tears, but forgets all those moments of happiness that once brought a smile to your face. Life seems unbearable, even the smallest mistake seems to be unforgiven. One's wish is to make the world stop and shed all of your tears. But unfortunately, the world doesn't stop, and life has to move on. At that time realization strikes, and one realizes that life has to move on, tears have to dry and one must learn to move on. We have to accept the sorrows that life throws at us and learn to bear our emotions, learn to be strong, to fight life for that one moment of happiness.

In one of those moments of sorrow, I wrote a poem once, that I feel like sharing:

As the Days Passed

On the first day everyone showered care

They made me believe I could overcome my despair

They said life is full of hurdles that you have to learn to cross

It's all about standing up and facing your loss

On the second day, they told me I wasn't alone

I felt a bit of concern in their tone

They told me that they will be at my side

It was time to accept my problems and not hide

On the third day, turning to God seemed right

He is the Almighty; He'll show me the light

To Him, I cried my heart out

He would fix my problems I had no doubt

On the fourth day, the truth hit a bit too late

I realized that all this WAS part of my fate

Tears strolled down my eyes as realization struck

I told myself that this was all the cause of my bad luck

On the fifth day, I needed someone to lend me a hand

But when I reached out all I found was vast land

I panicked because not a soul was in sight

Falling to the ground, I realized that this was alone my fight

On the sixth day, my eyes went numb as the tears dried

As I lived on I felt a part of me had died

Neither comfort nor rage came

As I understood that only fate was to be blamed

As the days passed one by one

I felt as though I had lost and fate had won

To compete with destiny is not my goal

But rather to accept it in my heart and grieve for it in my soul

From that day all the way to today, things have changed and my life has moved on. I won't say that the sorrow has gone, because it hasn't but I've learned to bear it over time. The poem was written through many tears and now I've come to realize that I was wrong. One must not lose to fate, but rather accept it and learn to live through it.

We must learn to stand back up on our feet and deal with the blows that life throws at us. Dealing with these things only gives you strength, patience, perseverance, faith, and most importantly perhaps, allows you to learn to get back up again and live life to its fullest.

When I'm feeling down, I like to listen to this song, it gives my heart a reason to live, a reason to hope. And perhaps my favorite line from this is the following:

Raah Pe Kaante Bikhre Agar
Uspe toh phir bhi chalna hi hai
Shaam chupale suraj magar
Raat ko ek din dhalna hi hai

Rut yeh tal jaege
Himmat rang layegi
Subha phir aayegi ...

Enjoy the song:

Thank you for your lovely and meaningful contributions.

Yes problems are part and parcel of life but sometimes

it can be so bad that nothing seems to help except a

bit of prayers.

Sadness and sorrow gather around us like a dark

horrible cloud.

King Maurya I am happy that you could come up with

a great song just like NF.

Poor NF although you laugh a lot u are facing the last

phase of your challenge in life. I am sure you will succeed.

Let me share a story too.

Sometimes our problems go away when we try to understand

other persons problems which are greater.

I had an elderly friend whose wife left him over 6 years back and also

embezzled some money from the clients. She also left the country.

He was in deep shit with the Law Society etc

plus investigations and the whole lot. He managed to

sort out all the legal problems but his health was affected.

Few days back he said sayonara and passed away

while playing golf.

But I am sure he is happy now.

I always made it a point to meet up with him each month

and see how he was doing or at least talk to him.

I always told him

that a lesser man could have killed themselves.

Thanx 4 sharing ur story..😊
