Tough Times

Tough times are the heartbreaking times of all. The time seems to run slowly than usual and everyday becomes the longest day of life. You feel like seeing far into the future but nothing is visible.

Depression and frustration sets in. The smile and glow that always used to be on your face vanishes, and people around you start to feel the difference in your behaviour. You constantly think of the worst and the more you think, your thoughts become worse. The road ahead of you looks dark, gloomy and deserted.

Tough Times comes into everyones life at one point of time, so it isn't in our best interests to depress ourselves and let that depression affect others around us. Even the mighty Pandavas had to endure tough times. Not even Lord Krishna was able to save them from these horrible times, although he was with them from the beginning till the end. If you observe closely you will find that Arjuna did not sit idle and kept worrying about the future, instead he learnt new skills and acquired divyastras from Indra, Shiva & others would help him in the oncoming war. What we can learn from this is praying god will not make your bad time go away, god will surely be with you during those times and help you come out of it, most importantly one should not sit idle and waste time by worrying about the present but work to acquire new skills like arjuna did that would help him in the future.

Everyone feels alone & deserted during bad times. But krishna says,  "Everyone is alone in this world, fighting his own private battle"

So all you people having tough times remember: "Tough times vanishes, Tough men don't".
