Life doesn't treat everyone the same way. For some, it is as if their roads are paved with satin gold - every step just falls into place and the journey is a smooth one, except with the most minor of infractions.

For the second lot of people, life deals with it, at every corner, some form of pitfall or other. Nothing comes easy. Struggle rules the day. Failure stomps its feet. Calamity strikes. Money is never enough. Friends aren't easy to come by. Criticism is abundant. Stress abounds and life seems too much to tolerate.

What do you do then? When failure haunts you. When your plans fail, when things don't come easy - what do you do? Do you fall down to your feet and cry? Or, do you stand up and fight?

I do both,, in same order as mentioned,I do lose courage too,,But I have seen that I get new ray of hope,, I don't know from where,,But I do,,,That's the fact of life,, Think of God all the time,, In Good times,, In sad times,, And at other times,,anyone will agree with that


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5731)   ranked 14 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

It must be that supernatural force from above that is giving you the new ray of hope. The man who puts God first will find God with him right up to the last. happy

I am very tenacious, I just keep plugging away. I am not necessarily a fighter, but I am loyal, and I hold on to what is right, even when things seem unfair. I am not one to say "Why me?' but am more likely to say "Why not me?" I am not better than anyone else. All of us deserve the worst possible outcomes, none of us deserve the goodness in life that we get.


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5731)   ranked 14 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

You have different approach to life problems. You have allowed the negative reactions to consume your thought which may give you the positive result in the end.


myLot reputation of 97/100. GardenGerty (20241)   ranked 234 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

I was thinking spiritually, that if we all got what we deserved, Jesus would not have died for us and we would not have the opportunity of salvation.

People said that I'm the melancholy type of person. I was easily break down. What do I do to survive..? just trying to except anything and be thankful to God for what I've got. And usually I'll feel better after I shed my tears and have a little strength to stand up and face whatever the problems...


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5731)   ranked 14 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

Hi Lia, I am no different from you. Tears will normally accompany me during trouble times but that doesn't help much except to release the tension inside me.

U are right it's not fair but u are like me i think u are not going to let it get u down. I have fought all my life for waht i wanted & what i have. I'M sure not going to give into it now at my age, I can still fight if necessary.


myLot reputation of 88/100. zandi458 (5731)   ranked 14 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

We do have that strong fighting spirit. Age is not a barrier to match forward and grab whatever opportunities that come our way. Our losing ways were over and we are learning how to win.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ANTIQUELADY (11221)   ranked 269 out of 3,470 in life  6 months ago

IF we don't win it sure want be from lack of trying. thumbup

You got that right. Alot of things seem to come easily for alot of people and alot of us have to work our rearends off to have and keep everything we got. I fall down and cry but then I get right back up and go on fighting for what I know I deserve.

These are two different spectrum of life. But you must remember that the world is round and revolving and so is our luck and destiny. Today we might be at the bottom of the ladder but who can predict what will happen to us tomorrow?

Yes, sometimes i do felt our life is unfair to us. We had tried our very best to do a particular things, hoping it will turned out good, but instead sometimes it turned out the opposite way. I ever gone through few times, such a patch in my life, especially when i was still an office staff. I had tried arrange all my schedule well, and informed my head and colleagues about it. But, the end result become the opposite way. sometimes, i ended-up being blamed for the thing that was not arranged or done by me. It makes me felt very stress and wanted to cry at that very moment. Luckily, i am able to bounce back very quickly and treated it as a lesson, not to believe in colleague's idea, whenever i am doing my job....

That is life, our expectations can be very disappointing. But it can be a blessing in disguise as there are many good things coming from unfortunate incidents.

As a Zen practitioner, I consider life to be like a classroom, when we all learn how to be more spiritual.

Some of us learn through great riches, some learn through great poverty. I don't think it is meant to be fair, but yet it probably is.

Animals go through their existence, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, but they don't look back or forwards and have no desires apart from immediate needs for food and safety from predators.

Without struggle we would not grow, as it makes us stronger. I see that if I try and stop changing things and accept things as they are, I become more content, relaxed and at ease.

I only stand up and fight if a current situation warrants it. Whenever I have failed at anything, I don't see it as failure at all, just a lesson that I am going down the wrong road. Nobody gets it right all of the time, so there is no great shame in failing happy - Derek

Some petty behavioural problems can occur in the classrooms. There may have been times when we had some painful experiences. As Kahlil Gibran says in The Prohet "Your pain is a breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding." Perhaps another way of putting this might be that our difficulties and confusion are proportional to our illusions. What ever manifest in life, experience is the great teacher, fills us with wisdom.

I like to fight. If I ever fall down, I do not cry for it. Again I try to stand and start fighting with more energy, enthusiasm and dedication. May God bless us all.

Humans are known to be great worriers. Wars are orchestrated between nations to fight till the last drop of blood, the strong and mighty one triumph but the poor and weak perish. Likewise, every humans must fight the enemies within and be a victor in life. Never surrender to life problems, live in the hope of becoming free.
