The Rain for the Rainbow

In life, all of us face difficulties and failures. Most of the time, when you go through this phase in life, you hope that it will end quickly or wish that you never faced it. Imagine that your hope became a reality. Now what?

 You may think that everything will be fine, until one day you will come to a place where you don't know how to handle even simple disappointments. 

You will find yourself unable to cope up with even little difficulties. Thankfully, you don't have the choice to just skip a situation.  

So how do failures help you in life?

If you look at it from a positive perspective, you will find that it is a necessity for growth. It acts as a stepping stone, if you want it to be.

 It helps you gain more experience in that particular area of life, which in turn leads to experiential knowledge. It makes you more resilient and keeps you humble. 

It motivates you to develop yourself where you create new opportunities. It makes you innovative so that you pave a new path instead of allowing your failures to be a stumbling block.

 So, look at all the difficulties and failures as a stepping stone towards growth and success. I would like to conclude with a quote from Dolly Parton, “If you want to see the rainbow, you have to put up with the rain.”

Also, it gives a better and clearer comprehension of a particular matter. Sometimes, putting things in perspective need not necessarily happen between two people. It can also be with yourself. When you start thinking of everything happening to you negatively, you can change your perspective and look at it positively. These are the times when you need to take off the wrong glasses and put on the correct one. When we do this we are able to see things from the right perspective and appreciate its true value. Just as it is with a camera.  ...

Change is something we often dread. A simple example would be the lockdown situation itself. We were so used to the way things were that we are unable to adapt ourselves to this new normal.  But what if I told you that change is actually good for our lives? Life does not get better by chance. It gets better by change so change that's for the better. It makes us refined and stronger. Even as we learn to accept change, we must also be the change wherever we are. Where do we start? We start with ourselves. Although most of the time, we think of changing the world we forget that change begins with us. Once change starts to happen within us, we are able to create a beautiful masterpiece as mentioned in the following quote.
