His father had a second wife, which nobody knew about. That lady died in an accident and her son came to live with them. After a few years, their father also died. Growing up with his stepbrother was not easy for both of them. His mother was diagnosed with cancer and he wondered where would it end. He wondered if he would ever have a normal life. But when I am asked this question, what is the definition of a normal life? There is no normal life. Everyone has own journey.
So he thought he cannot get married as who would like to be in such a messy situation. But he fell in love with someone in his office and after one year, even she filed for a divorce. He wondered what bad he had done in life to deserve a constant struggle. As per him, he never saw a day of peace and happiness. I asked him, what kind of life he would like to have?
It was difficult for him as he had started believing that he did not deserve a happy life. He could not think of anything. So he started a journey. he started helping poor kids and old people in old age homes. Maybe he created something good or maybe he created so much good. But in two years, he was a changed man. He felt light. He felt good. When he started feeling good, his life also started changing. He got promoted in the job also. he shifted to the USA. There he met another girl and he felt that finally, he could not have a better life.
Some people will have more challenges and some people will have fewer challenges. We cannot compare. If we have bigger problems, can we sit back saying we got so many? If someone has bigger wounds, shall he sit back thinking it’s so big, or that wound needs to be nursed? We need to nurse the wounds which we get in life. We need to focus on healing. We need to constantly work on making things better. Helping others, helping needy, staying positive, staying happy, taking care of health, working on increasing abundance, keeping the faith, everything is a part of it. Work on healing your pain rather than judging your own life on the pain you have.
