Hello everyone!
Hope you all are safe.
I know you all will relate to what I am going to write today. In the pandemic, we all have gone through many problems, be it health, education, or financial crisis. And not only pandemic, we all go through some problems throughout our life. Some share their problems or whatever issues they face, while some don't. It's fine because some people are not comfortable in sharing their issues with others, as they don't like when someone sympathizes with them, or there are some other reasons also for this. And I am not judging others who share by mentioning the fact written above.
But what most of us are the same in is that we think our problems are bigger than others. We think if someone is smiling, they don't have any issues in life. Whereas, the fact is that not all of us show their problems on face, or even by sharing with others. I myself have come across many people who are always smiling, and everyone thinks they are happy, or they don't have any problems in life, but the reality was that they also had some or the other problems, it's just that they don't feel like telling anyone about the same.
I know most of you will relate to this, and even if you don't accept it in front of others, but in your own mind and heart, you know that it is fact and truth. If not all, but most of us at some point of time, feel like that our problems, our issues are the biggest in the world, or than anyone else's in the world. And often because of this we don't understand the problems of others, even if they share their problems. I believe that you should not always make others count your problems, and you should understand what others are going through. If you can't sympathize with others then you must not even think their issues are less problematic than yours.
It is not like I have never made this mistake. There was a time when I also felt that no one is more sad, more disturbed than me. But with time, I realized that this is not true, and just because others are not sharing their problems doesn't mean their life is problem-free. And that day I decided that I will try my best to not make this mistake again. And I really hope that you all also understand this some day in your life.
Thank you.
