Life is very strange to feel. We bear life with us. But the hardest think to know life. Life is like the clouds in the sky. Every moment it change it's shape. So every moment that comes is newer one. Life is constituted with unpredictable moments. So it is said that life dwells in moment. As drops of water constitute vast ocean, thus life nothing but a stake of moment. Life shows it real color in adversity. Gold is tested in fire. Life is tested in adverse situation. When we are in prosperity everything is looked easier. Everyone come nearer to us. But every moments of life never goes similar. Some people says it is bad eyes of star that some moments comes in almost every life when everything act opposite to our thinking. What is done all everything goes wrong. Nothing looks easier. Near and dear one too goes far from us. Nothing friendly. As the storm is the sea and a helpless boat in mid sea. There are few people who never have to face such situation in life. But that is the real test of life. How you struggle your adverse situation is the real measure of your life. Do you have to face adverse situation in your life? Can you remember those hard days of your life? How have you overcome those days? If you in adverse situation how you have prepare to fight with your fortune smile?

Sometimes I look back at adversities I’ve had to face in my life and I have to wonder how on earth I got through them but I did, somehow I have always come through the other side. That is what I remind myself constantly; the fact that, no matter what is happening it will pass. Having some kind of spiritual faith really helps I find.

It is said that what we get, that we deserve. Actually god give the problem to people accordingly to their ability. So if we get more trouble in life then we should be happy because God keep the faith on us that we can overcome that. How much darkness is there in night, but at the dawn it must lightened. So tough of the toughest trouble is also solved. So the best way to face the situation then to stray away from that.

I don't think that there is a person alive that has never had to face adversity in their lives. One part of me wants to say that I've faced more than other people, but that wouldn't really be fair to say. Instead, I know that the struggles that I've faced have been great but others have faced struggles as well, it is just a matter of the fact that their struggles and my struggles differ. My mantra to be able to move forward in my life is knowing that things will get better given time.

None is there who never face adversity. As darkness is the other side of light such way adversity is the other side of prosperity. As there is darkness so light is so sweet. Thus as there is adversity so we found of prosperity. How much we have the pain is not countable but how do we deal with our pain is the measure of our ability and strength.

you are so true... when our life is smooth, we won't feel anything and will just take things for granted... but when we are facing problems and our lives is in the lowest point, then that is when we will grow and appreciate this life that God has given to us more... take care and have a nice day...

Yes when our life run smooth it looks everything easy. All the situation run accordingly. But when adversity comes everything run against us. But problems never be the obstacle in life. Because problem is the force that strengthen our ability. We can measure ourselves how are we strong at the time of adversity.

I like your comparison of life to clouds in the sky. That is very true! I have been through much adversity in my life and a lot of it was brought on by my own stupidity and lack of experience. Although I've been through some awful and stressful times, I would not trade any of them--they are what have made me the person I am now, the strong person who can deal with any adversity or sorrow. I deal with adversity by relying on my faith in God but I don't expect Him to help me until I've exhausted all my options. My motto is "never give up, never give in". And I don't. I always win over adversity in one way or another.

Actually we ourselves are responsible for the happening. Though we sometime feel that we have done nothing but adverse situation comes to us. But some how we ourselves responsible for that. None is there who is experienced about life. Life is a process of learning and no can be free from errors. Life is like an expedition. Life teach us how to live. But life sometime goes very rude to us for our wrong. Rudeness of life makes us strong. We have done alone what is to be done by us. If we think that some one come and bring us out from the adverse situation then we are ion the heaven of fool. Be strong and be confident, success is waiting for you. That is the real spirit of life.

hi aaleexix and so do we as we either suck it up and handle adversity or we turn tail and run; I like to think I have learned to endure through some mind numbing heart hurting adversity of the last two years. I was living and sharing an apartment with my adult son, I am an elderly widow and my son unfortunately got laid off as the California economy just plain crashed, to be blunt. we got behind on the rent, and of course inmmediately not waiting to see if my son could get a new job were evicted, its a story to long to tell, we had to split up, I am here in this less than wonderful retirement center paid for by my social security 'and ssi checks monthly and my son got gov.help into an apt with three other men, all of whom are looking for work, my son had a part time job but was cut back to one day a week so now looking again. so the woe goes on but I am happy because I could not stand living here if I did not make myself be happy for what I do have my computer and my monitor and my still good brain. those are my crutches and my survival too.

It's really hard situation indeed. But life is not a way cover with red carpet. It's like a journey toward unknown place. In life it is very strange that we are unknown to the next moment coming to us. Life is very own but completely unknown. In life every one has to pass through a hard situation. This is also a color of life. We can explore us in our hard situation. Actually that is the test of life. We can discover ourselves in hard situation.

i had many adversities and this sentence of the title is so true. there's a great secret master wich i love and always follow, Dr.John Demartini, he says that if we look to adversities (actually he talked about bad situations wich are adversities to those who can understand difficulties) only as a negative thing, we'll feel bad about that. Now all happening have both good and bad sides! I couldn't believe in that when i heard and gave it a long thought, that is so true. If we seek we can find the good thing that came out of us because of that adversity, how we benefited others and other good stuff. If we look really that way there's no trauma, we just went through that in the past to learn and grow.

At the time of adversity we can focus more on our ability. We can intensify our strength at that time. In normal time our real strength is not used and most of our power is unused. A the time of trouble we put our all effort to overcome the problem. So adverse time is the real test of life.
