Sometime back I happened to meet an old gentleman who was sitting and smiling in a park. He was watching small children playing and I asked him if he was with someone. He smiled and said yes my grand son is playing. I do not know why I felt something in his smile and I asked him if he has to teach one thing to his grandson, what would that be? He thought for a second and said that today I would say, if life gets tough, you need to remember that you are tougher. That’s a strange message! Can you please tell me why you want to give this one?
He said that young lady, seeing me smile, many think that I do not have any challenges in my life. But I would say I have had more challenges in my life than a normal person would have. Infact now, also getting up from bed everyday is a challenge. Still i pull together myself everyday telling my self I am strong enough to handle this. I have had many problems and there were times when i was about to give up or I had actually given up. Then only thing which helped me get going was to know that I can do it and I am stronger than I know.
Often we forget or do not realize how strong we are. It is amazing that more we get our strength out, more we will be able to find it. It is just that, we do not know that we can get as much as strength we want. If we realize how much strength we can get, we can do anything in this world.
There is no one in this world, who has not seen problems or will not see problems. The only thing which helps us get going is strength we have. We feel like dying, we feel alone, we feel like crying and we feel like giving up and in that moment the only thing which helps us is to remember we are stronger than whatever is happening around us. So instead of giving up, remmeber that if life is tough, you are tougher. Get going
