Its tough dealing with unexpected pain, but sometimes misfortune does occur and can strike at anytime; we just have to learn to cope with it. Encountering adversity can take the form of a physical illness, mental sickness, an emotional breakdown, financial loss, or some other type of hardship. The first step is to make a positive difference not just for yourself but for someone else who also might be suffering. Helping someone else despite your own downfall allows you to move from a place of hurting to a place of healing, so don't be self-centered and focus only on your own tragedy. By helping someone with their grief you start to diminish your own agony. For "those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed". (proverbs 11:25) , (photo by orbgetar)
