I am an optimistic person, as a matter of fact It is easy for me to get started and be willing to challenge in adverse situation. But as a human being, we have to admit that we are not perfect, that we used to blame someone else because of what was happening in our life. We cannot take control of everything and that our optimistic behavior usually runs out. I often give myself an advice that I can do something and everything will be fine but there are moments that it just did'nt work anymore. My business is running poorly, my family relationship is not well, my husband started to be different, he is acting like a total stranger these days. I mean, what is happening? why does life seems so hard on me now? does faith turns its blade on me completely? Why does problem seems to attacked in one shot? Im lost and I don't know what to do and where to start...I am in totally dislocated state right now. I am appealing to mylot people, if you have the same experience like mine what have you done? what are your actions? have you frecked out also? or let's say, have your optimism ever runs out???

As a matter of fact it does. Anex yes it does. I find myself struggling with my self esteem time and again. Even I am very optimistic, happy kind of person who would not see the bad things in life. Instead would capitalise on the little happiness, the little silver lining. Having said this when my family do not support me I find myself shattered, devastated. In those times even I freak out only to calm down and feel optimistic again. Anex, this is but life, we are human at the end of the day and living the hardships make life challenging and inspiring. I am sure you will overcome this, we all will. Just have faith in yourself. You are a lovely person and have trust in yourself. If you need my support pls PM me anytime. *CHEERS*

Hi Anex.. it is sad to hear that you are facing a lot of hardships now.. In fact, i have experienced the worse in the last few years.. exactly in the same mode i was going. Initially i have put all these problems in my mind... and i was reacting as if i am having control on everything.. But.. my Guruji.. preaching was.. don't take anything to mind, and never expect people to be in your wavelength always.. and have not too much of attachment to the things that is happening around you. Detach yourself from the problem and try to analyze the problem.. only then you will be able to find a clear solution.. Take care.
