To maintain a positive outlook in life, I’d been told to
count my blessings and have also told others to do the same. It seemed to work for some moments
but at the end of the day, I was back to square one. I’ve been told not compare
myself with others, and I told others the same; because if we compare ourselves
with others we either become vain or miserable. Compare yourself with yourself
and enjoy and take glory of the progress – the difference. This worked for me for a long, long time until
in recent years: I was terrific in the
past, now I’m in a terrible shape.
Lesson: Avoid making any comparison of any kind to escape misery. Accept
people, things or whatever that comes. Live at every moment. Be happy or be sad
according to what is called by the situation. Savor what you feel, whether joy
or pain, to the last drop; nothing lasts
forever.
