In the foot prints of Buddha Chapter-8
Chapter-8 Wretched life

What happens in this life? What make you worried? That things go wrong and didn’t go as you planned them? What to do when things go wrong in life? I’m not even sure with my answer. People often tell themselves that “I tried to fix up life. I worked really hard trying to fix things up. It didn’t make much different, actually or usually it made things much worse. And sometimes you tell yourself all of this while trying to fix up life and trying to make things better.” If you hear anyone saying that life sucks, and you mumble that “I’ve just been saying that my life sucks too.” The world goes in its own directions, it sometimes makes you wonder, what’s happening? And in life we keep on doing things in certain way and struggle our years wishing things go right and upset when things go wrong. And after a while, when you get old, you should start to realize that this is the nature of life. Nothing goes as you planned.

While you’re walking down a path with so much enthusiasm and if it was never meant for you, there’ll be a change of course which will be taken intentionally or unintentionally and you may dislike how it goes. It’s suffering. But you don’t have to be depressed because there is a solution for everything. Suffering comes from asking the life what life will never be able to give you. Start admitting that life has always been this way, but it is what it is. It is our expectations and desires and what we want out of life makes us fall into this deep pit called suffering and the depth of the pit we are sunken measures the misery with depression. I love being challenged most of the times, because when you’re really challenged, and you have to learn very quickly and life teaches you faster than that, you really dig deep to get the great answers which helps your life.

So, this is our life, so what do you expect? The problem in is life is why do people suffer? When does things go wrong? What do you mean that things are going wrong? There’s nothing wrong, just know that things are being late. There’s nothing wrong with struggling, there’s nothing wrong with me making mistakes, there’s nothing in wrong being afraid of things. When you understand the world, we actually have realistic expectations of life. What do you do when things go wrong in life or so-called go wrong, we think they go wrong, what happens? We get upset, frustrated. We get angry, worried. We create all this unnecessary tension inside of us. There’s always something that disturbs the nature of life. I do overreact sometimes, I get too much frustration, I go quiet or I yell and cry and do a lot of mischievous things which I regret afterwards.

A good conversation and inspiring yourself and getting uplifted or self-motivation actually makes you feel more comfortable and protected. Why worry about all such things? You’re gonna get it in a way or other. What happens if you don’t get it anyway? Your life goes on. It won’t stop for anything. Then why are we wasting time by accompanying misery? We always think that we’re more intelligent than other people, that’s a deceit which we live in our life. Agree that we do want to learn so many things. Life has much more to teach you. Accept everything whether it’s surprising or not. Explore and experience it. Master it in your own way. Challenge it back with your stubbornness. Let it come to you. Let it make you happy and peaceful. Fail and repeat but work hard enough to make it worthy and reach a different mile stone every time you try. Sort out things on your own. Be patient. Avoid stress and frustration. See yourself as a superhero who you admire the most and become the better version. We can learn how to cope up and to make peace.
