There has to be more to life than all the bullshit

[Boss]

We all go through...

Seems sometimes we are at the base bottom of life's shit everytime...things seem to be going the wrong way, people doing the wrong things...sometimes life feels so shitty sometimes.

Sometimes the best thing when one can't escape for a minute is just take a step back and look at what you've got...from the small things like Life, the ability to see, hear, feel...look at the sun and tell it's color etc...to the larger things like family or friends.

For the religious, it's a good idea to turn to the one you believe in esp in rough times...the truth is the solution to one's problems first starts with YOU.

How are you going to handle the situation you find yourself in? How are you going to face today...where's that confidence and faith, and most of all hope that life will get better? That's where it starts...and if you are a religious person, maybe praying would be a good option.

Sometimes it's far easier said than done...I could list the steps out to help yourself in bad times.

-Take a step back and observe
-Realise and be thankful of the good things/blessings we have
-Talk to a good friend/fam/God
-If the problem can be solved, ACT. Go out there and do it. Sitting down and whining about a problem would not fix it. If not one that can be solved...console yourself and hope it would get better...and if u have faith in yourself...it will get better.

Things are much easier said than done in reality my friends.The rush at which the world comes at you sometimes can make you not even recover or step back. Bullshit has a way of blinding u from seeing the good things and blessings you possess. Sometimes it feels like there's nobody to turn to, either we are scared of retribution or blackmail...or the family and friends are the problems themselves. Or in the case of an unfortunate situation...we look to God and curse him...ask him why he's making things worse for us...why he's not answering my prayers...why did he take my cousin from cancer when he was only 5? Did he hear us pray? Why he made ur fam lose his first child?Did he hear the man's cry? Why did you let a young man's dad and brother go? Why did you let a father sexually abuse his teenage daughter me?Did u hear her screaming for God to save her? We just ask him why? But the truth is...we come out of his situations to be tougher...to learn from the situation and to help others.

So it's all about that...life's good side...the joy in helping another man(or woman) up..personally speaking that makes life even better...the uncontrolled laughter of a child...the goodness of life to you...find it...find that thing that reminds u that life is more than all the trouble...something that relieves u. Take the steps I mentioned..they may be hard but doing them one by one somehow makes things a little bit clearer and like a flowchart well-done...there'd be an end and a good one. Help ur fellow human beings who are going thru the same thing because u have gone thru it...u dont have to be a negative or evil agent about it because the truth is, there's a reason we go thru these things...and we forsake it...wut u thought was past would come back and hit u with a vengeance if u dont learn.

This is not me preaching, this is just a personal message to not just you, but a reminder to me as well.

Take care of yourselves...be easy.

Peace
