Answer 1

When everything in life seems to fail... when we have already eaten hell for breakfast numerous times... when everything seems lost... when it is life almost turned upside down... it is then most human beings on Mother Earth remember God Almighty. In times of happiness... when everything seems okay... none wants to remember God! Why?

We seek solace from God only in times of need. What if God Almighty also does not favor us with his grace! In the circumstances... whom do we turn to! Yes... there is a hidden factor in the cosmic system that we can always turn to... the sweet small inner voice of our soul atman within! The voice of our soul atman within can be distinctly heard by one traveling the spiritual path.

By following the path of absolute truthfulness most human beings in life distinctly hear the sweet small inner voice of our soul atman that seems to come from within our heart. The sweet small inner voice of our soul atman always guides us on the right path. It is in times of need when we feel absolutely lonely... the soothing voice provides the required solace!

It is our soul atman that is the prime master and controller of the body. It is our soul atman that has manifested the body to work out its karma... eradicate the impurities within! It is truly our soul atman within that guides the human form when darkness engulfs us totally. Only when wanton desires and greed for materialistic riches take control of us... all seems lost!

Whenever the ego of a human being becomes more dominating than the dictates of our soul atman within... life seems to lose its meaning... we start fearing the hidden factors of the Cosmos! It is at this moment one must subdue ego and try listening to the voice of our soul atman within by being truthful in life!

It is only truthfulness that paves way for facing all obstacles in life. The sheer grit... the willpower that seems to come from within becomes available to one only when we travel the path of absolute truthfulness... never otherwise! Bogged down by the dictates of ego... human beings start cursing God for the karma performed by them.

As per the doctrine of karma we only reap what we sow... Nothing more or less! Why blame God for the karma performed by self. As is the residual balance of karma... so shall be our future! In the domain of God there are no free lunches nor is the system of God disordered at any stage as has been apprehended by Stephen Hawking in his famous book, "a brief history of time".

Answer 2

Change it.

Can you find your sense of humor? Perhaps you haven't lost it for good, it's probably right where you left it.

Go and make new friends. Everyone is not alike; there are people who will respect you and even give of themselves to help you grow toward your personal goals. One way to make new friends is to involve yourself in a new activity or organization--what would you like to try? If you don't know where to find particular types of organization, call a reporter at your local newspaper or ask a librarian--they will often know about community arts groups, social events, service organizations, religious congregations.

Understand that you ought to be your own best friend. Take the lonely times as an opportunity to get to know that person who you spend all your time with. Don't blame yourself for anything you didn't do. Perhaps you'll find that the quietude is not as scary as you expected.

Finally, remember that it is better to curse one little candle than to light the darkness.

Answer 3

turn the light back on-I don't dwell on what was, but what could be. I learned not to. My close friend didn't betray me she moved and never called, never bother to call. She was my whole life-from dawn to dusk. I dwelled on her for 3 years. I couldn't move on. I was depressed and cried myself to sleep for a year 1/2 everynight becuz i missed the good ol' days with her. there was no one i could tell my problems too, not even parents. Friends could only stand a wee bit. I kept to myself.
But i learned that if she hadn't moved away i would still be her follower, i would do what she does and never my own thing. So when life is full of darkness, turn on the light. Remember the past but do not dwell. There are better things out there, and it will take time, discover a new you, by what you've experienced and never let the darkness become you.

Answer 4

Close my eyes and rest. I know the sun will light the skies in the morning and it just doesn't do any good to fret about it. When I am relaxed I take a look at the current problem and try to see the facts and not my wistful thinking. Imagine my surprise when I realize that I actually contributed to the problem. Then at first light I make things right. Change what I can, accept what I can't and don't give it another worry.

Answer 5

Thinking about darkness leads to darkness. Thinking about sorrows ends up with sadness and self-pity. And then into the dangerous area of depression.

Finding better friends, spending time with others and sharing good times and not sorrows completely changes the darkness to lightness.

Answer 6

At such times i talk with my self in a place where i will b all alone..."nothin in this world is permanent...wat you have today may not b with you tomorrow....even though your best friend has betrayed you...forgive him for this life is too short to hate some one...its not the end of the world...there r so many people out there waiting for your help...trust in yourself...."and even after this if i feel sad i listen to songs...

Answer 7

For a long time we passed the night with embers. Yearning for more light is wise but walking into the dark for firewood isn't.
Another fact about complete darkness is any light blinds us when we need eyesight most so sit with your back to small night fire much as possible. Failing that keep a friend close
and your enemy closer.

Answer 8

That sort of situation did arise in my life. At that time I was helped from within. The help is always there. We just need to keep our senses sharp and that much we need to do to rise from the situation.
Your darkness may not really be as such. It may well be the shadow of a huge effulgence of light ,the Light Within.

Answer 10

There is.in fact, nothing like darkness-the darknesss outside can be dispelled by lighting a candle. So too, the inner darkness seated inside your heart can be cast off, by lighting a candle of Bhakthi and in it you can be sure of finding a solace and a solution to all your problems.

Answer 11

sit and think, find one thing you think might improve your life, it doesnt even have to be related to your problems, take a walk, do a favor for someone, research a topic, clean your room and finally organize that closet, etc, these are all really things you are doing for yourself, positive things, and that is what you must think of at times like these, its not bad to be self considerate and do nice things for yourself
later you can think about the specific problems, why your friends did this, were they true friends at all or is this just a misunderstanding,
life is full of change, often a key is finding things and people that do work for you, you create your life, while some things we have to tolerate, most of a persons life is full of what they put into it, allow in
