It May Not Be Your Fault That You Feel Bad, but It Is Your Responsibility to Heal

"It's not the critic who matters, not the one who stands on the sidelines and points the finger at how the strong man has stumbled, or how the one who does something could do it better. Merit belongs to one who is in the arena, to one who repeatedly makes mistakes and fails, to one who knows enthusiasm and devotion and who devotes himself to a cause worthy of effort, to one who, at best, knows the triumph of great achievements, and in the worst case, he fails after he has dared something extraordinary; of the man who knows that his place is not with those weak and cold souls who will never know either victory or defeat. " - Theodore Roosevelt

Each of us carries our emotional burden. We have all been hurt in childhood, adolescence, or even adulthood. We all have our annoyances, frustrations, and disappointments. This is a fundamental legitimacy of life, which we cannot avoid: we hurt and we also get hurt.

However, life goes on.

It is not a valid solution to get caught up in this cycle of spiritual pain and to ignore the beautiful, positive side of life. Usually, we assimilate this lesson as we mature.

It is during this period, re-analyzing our lives so far, that we all realize that we are all suffering, that we are all having bad emotional times, and that we are all going through this endless cycle of uncertainties called life. But at the same time, everyone is experiencing remarkable moments of happiness, satisfaction, kindness, love, success, and so on.

Our existence remains asymmetrical, inhomogeneous, and chaotic.

However, we cannot wait for this disorder to turn into a stand-alone order. This moment, simply, will never take place unless we are the ones who will take action and create it. The truth is that we can wait without doing anything, only that our suffering will not be alleviated in this way.

On the contrary, we will amplify it grandly; we will feel humble and helpless in the face of fate, which will play with us in a tough game of violence; we will receive blows continuously, without even trying to avoid them or to understand where they come from.

Indeed, each of us can feel bad at one time or another in our life. Inevitable. However, it remains our responsibility to heal. Because if we don't do it, then who ?! Moreover, healing takes place precisely when we are aware of the presence of a problem and the need to act against it.

By simply deciding to change the course of things that we want, the healing process begins!

Therefore, a mature and independent person takes responsibility for what he thinks, does, speaks, and feels. He has his wounds and is aware that he will still be hurt countless times in his life. But he chooses not to succumb to negative emotions and excessive thoughts in dark times.

On the contrary, he chooses to focus on the light, the beautiful parts of his personality, and his life. He is independently researching other ways in which he could completely overcome the pains of the past and live a full and satisfying life. And that's because he knows it's his responsibility to do it himself.

If you want to heal yourself spiritually, forgive yourself and the people in your life for being imperfect, accept the clutter that might confuse you at times, learn to look for solutions, and don't be guilty whenever you face it. a new existential challenge.

In this way, whether or not you are satisfied with the life you have lived, you will at least be grateful for the presence, courage, and effort you have put into your path to healing.

You will know that you are a man of quality.

You will know that you have lived a meaningful life!
