THERE WAS A PHASE IN MY LIFE WHEN I WAS VERY DISTURBED. I WAS FULL OF COMPLAINTS AND WAS UPSET WITH GOD. WHY HE HAS GIVEN ME A LIFE WHERE I HAVE TO DEPEND ON OTHERS' FOR DAILY CHORES. WHY I AM NOT BORN WITH AN ABLE BODY. SO I CAN LIVE AND ENJOY LIFE LIKE OTHER PEOPLE DO.
THESE QUESTIONS WERE PESTERING ME. I STARTED TO QUESTION THE EXISTENCE OF GOD.
I WAS SUFFERING AND WAS HEADING TOWARDS DEPRESSION. BUT AT THE RIGHT TIME GOD HELPED ME TO COME OUT OF THAT PHASE.
IT IS NOT THAT SOME EXTRAORDINARY INCIDENT HAPPENED TO ME. IT WAS A SLOW PROCESS. GOD LED ME OUT OF THAT SITUATION BY GIVING ME SMALL SIGNALS. WHICH I RECEIVED SOMETIMES WHILE READING A BOOK OR WATCHING A T.V. PROGRAMME OR TALKING TO SOMEONE.
THROUGH THOSE SIGNALS I REALIZED THAT NO ONE IN THIS WORLD IS FREE FROM SUFFERINGS. THERE ARE MANY PERSONS WHOSE AFFLICTIONS ARE MUCH GREATER THAN MINE.
'THERE IS AN OLD SAYING I WAS CRYING FOR MY BARE FEET UNTIL I SAW A MAN WITHOUT LEGS.'
MOST OF THE TIME WE ARE SO DEEPLY IMMERSED IN THINKING ABOUT OUR SUFFERINGS THAT WE DON'T PAY ATTENTION ON OTHER POSITIVE THINGS WE HAVE.
I FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE FIGHTING WITH ADVERSITIES WITHOUT ANY COMPLAINT. THIS BROUGHT A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN MY LIFE. I REALIZED THAT ALL THIS COMPLAINING AND LAMENTATION WILL TAKE ME NOWHERE.
LIFE IS NOT ABOUT BEING IN DARKNESS BUT IT IS A STRUGGLE TO COME TO LIGHT. I SHIFTED MY ATTENTION ON POSITIVE SIDE OF MY LIFE. THE MORE I LOOK AT POSITIVE SIDE THE MORE I FELT BLESSED BY GOD. SOON I WAS OUT OF THAT BAD PHASE.
IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT WE DON'T HAVE IF WE CAN UTILIZE WHAT WE HAVE IN BETTER WAY. ONE SHOULD NOT WASTE HIS LIFE IN LAMENTING FOR WHAT HE DOES NOT HAVE. RATHER HE SHOULD TRY TO MAKE MAXIMUM USE OF WHAT HE HAS.
WHENEVER I LOOK BACK AT THAT TIME AND THINK ABOUT THOSE SIGNALS WHICH I RECEIVED, MY HEART FILLS WITH GRATITUDE. HOW INTELLIGENTLY GOD WAS DIVERTING ME FROM NEGATIVE TO POSITIVE ASPECT OF LIFE. NOW I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR WHATEVER HE HAS GIVEN TO ME.
