One girl was feeling very depressed. She had a broken engagement and 2 broken relationships. She was feeling all low because her cousins and sisters were getting married. More than her state of relationship, what was bothering her was that girls of her age were getting married and no one in her circle had such poor state of relationship.
However, what helped her in realizing was few facts about herself:
1. Everyone is different
2. So everyone has a different life and different life path
3. Every one is blessed differently
4. What others have, she does not have and what she has others may not have. No point in comparing.
5. What she has to see is what she has rather than what others have.
6. Neither she should put down herself not she should demean others.
She started working on herself opened her own bakery classes. Gradually she could open a bakery shop and she became very famous in her town in that. People loved what she made. Later on she realized that if all that relationship thing would not have happened, she would have never known herself. She would always identified herself with someone else but now, she knows herself by who she really is. She felt, she met herself.
Like wise, we all have such pangs of jealousy, inferiority complexes and many such emotions. They arise because we feel lack of something and that lack we feel in comparison to others. What we need to do is stand up for ourselves, discover who we are and then work on self. This life is a journey of self discovery.
No one in this world has everything but everyone has something. We need to find this something to give meaning to our lives.
