Opportunity - There is one always for you!
My mom's words are still echoing in my ears today - "Purwa, in every problem that you have, try finding a opportunity there and then experience the fun". Very often, when we are faced with a crisis or struggle we often despair. But we surely do forget the fact that it is in trouble that the best opportunities emerge, but the question is if we are keeping are eyes open to see it. A crisis allows to to grow, reflect, learn and makes you a better individual. Is that not a good enough opportunity! It’s where we discover who we are and how we can find a new way we couldn’t have imagined before the crisis presented itself. It allows us to practice patience and acceptance and find renewed hope — which is the most beautiful thing. When you loose your job, there is a opportunity for reinvention and to strike out something new and different (for all you know, something of your own). When you loose someone very near and dear to you, there is a opportunity to reflect on that loved one's wonderful life and for the family to come together in a way that was never possible before. When I failed at work I learned to improve and grow better. When Siya throws tantrums she is teaching me more patience and the power of raw emotions and the wonder of childhood and what happens when you lose perspective. When me and Vipul have arguments, it is an opportunity to learn more about each other and grow closer and become better at finding common ground. When I saw my near and dear one very ill, it was a opportunity for me to learn "Health is truly Wealth". When I am touring alone, it is an opportunity for me for introspection and gets me more closer to family. That is what is beautiful. Suddenly the crisis situation changes to hope and growth. In the struggle is the possible if we dare to look!
