Smile, You Don’t Own All The Problems in The World
Have you smiled today? Every human being has problems in his life. No exception with the great names like Elon, Jeff, Mark, Steve, Hamilton, Ronaldo, Oprah and so on. I don’t know what their problems were in the past, I’m sure that’s the problem that got them at this stage.
Talking about problems, I was once in a condition where one problem was stuck in my head for up to 6 months. I became moody, demotivated, and anxious. I even considered that the problem had ruined my life. Until this one moment arrived: the moment where I borrowed someone else’s ruler to treat the pain of my problem.
That method is quite successful I think. In just a matter of minutes, no, not even seconds, the problems that have been on my head for 6 months are like being crushed by the waves and sea breezes. It just disappeared. I borrowed someone else’s ruler and used it as a benchmark. “Is this problem of mine really destroying my life or am I the one who gets caught up in this problem?"
I was not Socrates who had to drink poison hemlock, nor was the Japanese Kamikaze troop crashing his plane as soon as their bullets ran out. I wasn’t in a Nazi concentration camp like Viktor Frankl was. Their problems are much worse than mine, then why am I acting like this as if all the problems in the world are not worth my problems? Then, I realize those 6 months of emotion are just temporary, and maybe that’s what makes me a better person right now.
So, no matter what you feeling, the highest high on your wedding day or the lowest low when you lost the loves one, that emotions will not fucking stay. So, don’t ever make permanent decision based on a temporary emotions. Some of you are feel like giving up your life right now. Don’t my friend, just don’t do it. Yourself need you. Smile, you don’t own all the problems in the world.
