Life is tough sometimes. Actually it is tough for most of
times but usually we can tolerate it. But in these days it is really difficult
to tolerate it for me. It is not because i am having such hard days. It's because i am
taking small problems in my life and converting into such big problems. I have
no idea why am i acting like this. I am not crazy or sociopath. I
guess i am a normal person like everyone. But last days, even a little problem
could be enough to drug me desperate mood.
A few weeks ago i had a very long conversation with one of my
neigbour. We were talking from this and that. And the main subject was
really far away from my desperate mood. And she just started to talk her mother’s
behaviour. As she told, her mother always make her life very difficult. It is
so hard to be happy in her life. She is always complaining about problems and
finally she is not happy at all. And she also have a lot of problems with her
daughter,which is my neighbour. And in the middle of one of their fruious
discussion, my neigbour told her mother, "mum,tell me only one moment that you became
happy in your life." And her mother started to thinking and struggling to find
one. And what her daughter said is, i have not any moment that i did not become happy
in my whole life.
That's because her daughter has not an awesome life. She got
divorced. She has a little kid and kid has also some problems and she is trying
to grow this kid all alone. Of course her life is harder than most of people. But
what she said is, i don't have perfect life. I don't have the best opportunities.
But when i live my life, i always think, what i got now? Hmm, i got this, this and that. So
i will make my life better by using what i got. And i will not make me sad what
i don't get.
For example if i make myself upset about my bad marriage, what is
gonna be like rest of my life? And you know what people, she is happier than
me. Maybe when i reach her age –cause she is about 30- i will have more
opportunities and have better life, i dont know, maybe. But even this, she is
happier than me. Because she just learned how to handle challenges of life and
how to convert it to happiness. Her happiness is not because she is happy all
the time. Her happiness is because she is enjoying with the moment. She is not
upset about what she lived in the past. Or she is not upset because which
facilities she don't have. And that's why, whenever i see her, i am feeling
better. She is like a smiling and positive energy machine that gives happines to
everyone.
So, back to the
story. When she talks about her mum, i saw myself in the story. I am such an
unhappy person. And sometimes, it can be very difficult to find a good aspect
about my life. But when i read my very old blog writings -like one year ago- i
am seeing myself very happy, hopeful and positive. So i wasn't be like this
forever. Somehow, i became an unhappy person. And in these days, i am forcing myself
to think, why did i change? What happened in my life and, i became this much
unhappy.
But as you guess, i couldn't reach any results. So i just left to think
why this happened. Now i need to think how can i become happy again. How can i gain
the joy of my life? I need to think on this subject but as you guess again, this is
not an easy work. I am thinking and making a life decision; from now forever, i
will be very optimistic about events and circumstances. But it is not just
working anyway. But i need to gain this positive thinking before i graduate
cause the coming life will be really hard to handle. So i just should to do
something right now.
You may wonder dear reader, if you did not reach a solution,
why are you writing here? Here is the answer. When i wrote down, on my blog, some
solutions is coming to my mind one by one. This place is like a instructor for
me.
Actually i just remembered something. I guess this is some
words from one of the videos that i watched a few weeks ago. It says; everbody has different challenges and
opportunities. So everybody should try to do something on their creation.
This is totally true. Maybe my challenges is somebody else’s
oppourtinties. Who knows? I just got used to complain about everything but this
is not a true way to follow. Yeah, all of us have some tough times in our lifes.
But this means is not we will ruin our life just because of some challenges. Challenges
are in everywhere. Why am i ruining my life because of some difficulties? When i
wrote down, i just realise how stupid i am.
Sometimes i miss my childhood. The days that you don't even
know the meaning the deep thinking. Cause you didn't live a difficulty, why
would you need think deeply? But now i know for sure, there is no way to go
back to childhood. I wish there was, but unfortunately there was not. So if it
is not possible to back to your infancy days, you have to handle your problems.
You got opportunities and challenges. Maybe there are better than the others,
maybe not, we don't know. But you have to live your life with what you got. And also
you need to try to be happy what you lived. If you will not be happy what you
lived, then why are you living this life? You need to be happy with both your good
and bad decisions. You need to be glad and thankful, what you had and what you
don't have. Cause this is how life works. You don't know if it will be better
that you have more opportunities. We don't know.
So complainig is useless. If you
couldn't know the end of the road, you have no rigth to decide what is better for
you. If you decide, maybe this will be wrong and that's why we have limited
minds. So maybe the solution is not be upset about what you got, even if they
were bad things. Maybe the solution is, to be grateful for everything, try to
do your best, and be happy what your lived.

Hi! I believe that the biggest problem about your unsatisfied feelings is perception of happiness. In my oppinion finding true happiness and living happily ever after is not possible because happiness is something very transient and ungrateful which is not worth to live for. In fact i believe the main goal for a person to reach should be peace not happiness. Peace is the comfortable feeling that comes when you do things you should do.It isn't like happiness it isn't for a momentous relaxation and maybe most importantly it isn't for fleshy desires.Peace is about doing right thing for your soul not body.Happiness bring bodily pleasure but peace is deep comfort of your soul.
ReplyDeleteHello. Actually you have a point about my perception of happiness. I am kinda obsessed about happines and i am seeing like it the purpose of the life, which is totaly wrong. And i have never thougth about "peace." I guess all i need is, do what should i do for my soul and try to be peaceful. And when my soul feel better, my body will feel better anyway.
DeleteThanks for your comment. Have a nice day!
