Life never pauses for anyone whether we feel trapped in our sadness or whether we feel moments of joy. Sometimes in the continuous parade of time, our hearts seem to pause down with agony. It maybe the consequence of past trauma or the present thought or the fear of future. These emotional damages can leaves us feeling stuck, while others are moving forward. It’s easy to think, “Why am I left behind? Why me?” Such comparisons further push the feelings of despair.
Yet, what we often forget is that each new day is a new beginning, a new opportunity to start over or carry on moving forward. Remember, only the surface of other’s lives is visible. We may admire their progress or even envy them without knowing the challenges they faced. The efforts they made to get to this point. Each person is unique in itself and this uniqueness bring countless dreams and their reachings.
In matter of success, we can work our way through with consistency, time, practice and hard work. But, when it comes to relationships, even our deepest effort may not overcome this burden. This demonstrates that matters of the heart are deeply personal, guided by our innermost feelings rather than simple rules.
The best advice is to be rational, invest your energy in those who truly deserve it. People who appreciate your worth and bring positivity into your life. Though, we all are human beings, we all share this world, still, every person has its own twists and turns. Feeling behind is completely normal–specially in this modern era of social media. Don’t give up, don’t lose heart; life goes on, it keeps on spinning in complex, yet beautiful ways.
