Some truths will always sting a little
Some people don’t really want to change their life. They just want to talk about how hard it is. Every day it’s the same story. They’re tired, done, heartbroken, unlucky, or misunderstood. You try to help, you try to lift them up, but they don’t want to stand up for themselves.
If you can’t fight for yourself, no one else can. The world can hand you advice, opportunities, and even sympathy, but not courage. At some point, you have to stop waiting for someone to save you and decide to show up for yourself.
You can either keep saying “why me” or start saying “watch me.” The difference is how badly you want your life to change......

Im pretty sure everybody in that position wants to do something about it. A few are given opportunities, a few find ways, a few get addicted to stuff and a few give up. Irrespective, its not that easy to simply wake up and decide today I'll change my life.
It's one thing to tell but another to live through it.
For everyone who are trying to get it sorted, at your own time and at your own pace.
True, it’s never simple. Everyone’s story is different and healing takes time. My point was that at some stage, you have to want that change for yourself. Support helps, but no one else can make that decision for you
Either you are born lucky, born privileged or born heartless....atleast one of these 3....
I was 9 years old when my father passed away. My sister was 5. Life turned upside down overnight. We were broken and scared, and slowly, we also became poor. Our family income was just 5,000 rupees a month, and from that, we had to manage school fees, rent, and daily expenses.
I started working early. I gave tuitions, sold pens, books, and flowers outside the temple. When I turned 18, I continued my studies through correspondence and worked in call centers. I also worked at KFC. I never stopped, because stopping meant giving up.
My mother never imagined that one day we could have our own house or live a stable life, but I believed we could. I couldn’t study in a top university, but I made sure my sister did. I paid for her education, and today, she works in a good company and earns 80,000 rupees a month. I now earn 1.5 lakhs a month and have built my own house. Even though my husband already had a home, I wanted to have something that was mine. I also helped my sister take a home loan and build her own.
We started with nothing, but we didn’t stay there. We worked hard and changed our story.
So if you really want to change your life, start by changing your mindset. Stop saying your life is bad. Everyone’s life feels tough at some point, but it gets better only when you decide to make it better. Even a beggar can start by doing some work. You just have to take the first step.
You know what, if you try to help these kind of people and if they don’t wanna get out of it, gradually you will start become like them. It’s better to let them fight and win their own inner battles. Winning inner battles is most difficult but it’s not impossible.
Damn true.....
Philosophy is good I have had around 5 people who gave up on life, one friend tried to end his life, I'm happy I was able to pull them out of their misery effort wise for each of them around an year or so. For one friend I remembered it took me around 2 years of constantly supporting her to make her realise there's more to life. But yes in conclusion both the individual who wants to change and you as the helper needs to put in a lot of effort.
Absolutely. It really does take effort from both ends the person who wants to change and the one trying to help. I’ve seen that too. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it when even one person decides to turn things around.
What is the purpose of this post? Just wondering.
Some people post everyday in this community and keep saying I don't like my life, I don't look good, I don't have a girlfriend, I'm not getting married. And I'm tired of seeing such post. You give this person any suggestions, he'll again start crying that this is not going to happen. I cannot do this. I cannot do that..... He earns good, he has money and he keeps crying all the time.
