    The nature of life is that things continually change.
    When I'm facing difficult times, I tell myself that this too shall pass.

    • @Sonomacats

      My mother says that all the time. It used to make me crazy. But then I discovered how wise AND true it is. So now I acknowledge the situation, remind myself that "this too shall pass" and then ask myself what I can do about it right now. How can I look at it? What gift is hiding in the middle of it?

    • @notaclue822

      I seriously hate this platitude. It's tired and unfeeling. Surely when someone is suffering or in pain there is something more heartfelt and meaningful to say. Not this bumper sticker.

      @mariarohmer2374 if it doesnt work for you, thats fine. It actually has comforted me and i dont view it as being unfeeling at all. It's true and sometimes, when there's truly nothing that can be done about misfortune, it helps to realize that in time the issue will fade in significance at least. We have limited power in life sometimes.

    The reality is that some people’s lives will never improve out of ‘chronic misery’. I know several ‘elder orphans’ ie older people whose entire family is deceased, whose friends are married so don’t bother with them any more, and whose neighbours treat them like a social pariah (one friend said “Alien”) because no-one ever calls at their house etc, whose lives are a living hell and no amount of ‘acceptance’ will help them. Where you live also plays a huge part in your ability to survive in that type of situation: if your locality is geared to young families and older people are ignored (bar the odd whist drive or bowls club!), being positive and forward-looking doesn’t help you one jot (trust me - I live in such a place myself). Since Covid, British society has changed - the whole sense of community has gone and people just care about what happens within their own 4 walls. And no amount of positivity’s going to change that.

    Sometimes, challenges and struggles are easier to cope with if one has a compatible partner to share the burden, be that physical and/or mental. I notice that being alone, to navigate such situations becomes all the more challenging when one has multiple complex issues to cope with at the same time. Sometimes, I make an 'appointment' with myself in a week or two, to allow myself to remove myself and choose to live in the present. Sometimes, that is easier said than done. I also make it a point to do one thing every day, that brings me happiness. I always break problems down into smaller bites, something I learned from my piano teacher. One bar at a time, then the next and join the two together, etc., etc.. The companionship of animals and the beauty of nature can also be very comforting, especially in the absence of family and/or friends. Resilience is by far my strongest trait. I surprise myself from time to time. Living in keeping with my values is everything!

    I live with a back hernia for years now and i work with children, i work independently so a day not working is a day not getting payed. I have a lot of pain every day and i will not go in social services and be poor bur live is so hard, the only thing is suck it up, man up, psychiatrists cant help you, you will be mentally dependent, dokters can help you to a certain level with pain medication but a hard life is the card that you get dealt with..
    Get strong!! Dont be a victim, be a survivor, be your own hero and live your life wise.

    hello Emmy, have been out of the loop for a while...and this coming into my feed feeling compelled to check in again...love that so many comments are validating your needed words, inspiration and presence as those who have listened prior, like me think, why isnt this person blowing up over the intenet as one hell of wise woman you are...anyway for me, your pearls always remind me that there are so many others going through 'similar' diificult situations, and try not to take it personally, and that through strength, resolve and persistence this too shall pass, and yes the sun will shine. thank you . always ❤

    Pace yourself. Every day one can apply an act or energy that helps move things along. It's worth the try. And as a bonus one may find their resilience is remarkable. And try not to go it alone. And if you can, every day help someone else when you find the chance to do so. That also in turn helps build your own resilience and it takes the mind off of oneself for awhile which is good to also do. Take a break however one can. Find gratitude where you can no matter how small it appears. Tomorrow is a new day.

    But adulthood, taught me how to heal my younger self that had to care for everyone.

    3 weeks ago I watched this video. Still in the misery of my own life.
    What I have learned through, another UA-camr, Nigel from Primal England in Lancashire. Is to slooooooow down.
    Not slow in the way you get dressed, or washing pots.
    Slow your vision speed down, and actually appreciate what your eyes are seeing.
    Thats made a massive difference. But it takes practice.
    Ive also started showing my personality, when I feel I shouldn't be myself.
    Im starting to not feel afraid around people who make me nervous, Im trying to be me, a more relaxed version of me. And I think Im starting to enjoy life again ❤❤❤

    Such a beautiful message of truth delivered by an amazing spirit in a gorgeous setting. What a loving living example of learning and sharing and making a difference. The wisdom you have gained shines through your eyes and I thank you for putting your perspective out here to help others. Life is so very hard but we can do hard things, day after day, and still find joy. Finding joy in each day, even for just a few minutes, builds the resilience we need to get through the hard parts of life and over time, little by little, the joy is easier to find and feeds our soul. Like going for a walk on a beautiful fall day and sharing it with others. You brought me joy today and so now I must be open to the opportunity to pass it in. Bless you. May you be well and free from suffering..

    There’s no silver lining, or making the best of a bad situation, when you’re in constant chronic pain. It’s basically just waiting around till it’s all over.
