PROBLEMS

Am sitting down, a lot running through my mind, a lot of problems to solve, a lot of questions to answer, mixed emotions, one minute am happy, then the next minute a sudden thought of a problem comes to mind and then am sad again and then as I sit and look at nature, I see the green leaves around, can see the flowers blossom in their beauty, the birds feel so free in their flight, the gentle breeze blows on me and for one moment I can feel the stillness and calmness of life, just then my sight shifted to something just beneath me, it was the little creatures that caught my attention, I saw as one tried lifting a little piece of bread, it tried and tried but could not, at that point, that was its own problem, am sure with a lot of questions too, am thinking the ant must have been asking itself at that point, how do I lift this piece of bread alone, how do I get it home, is it small enough to enter my home, how do I even get it home without any other getting to see? Then I noticed something really surprising, the ant goes to call other ants and they start lifting the piece of bread and as they did this more ants started joining to help, till the piece of bread got home easily.
I learnt these lessons
 Everyone has problems, no one is free from problems, no matter how small, big, young or old you are
 No problem is unique, someone somewhere has faced similar problems before, therefore every problem has a solution
 Be ready to tell others your problem, like it’s popularly said “a problem shared, is a problem half solved”
 People are always ready to hear what you have to say and are ready to help, so don’t shy away from sharing your problems
 Deep within there’s love in everyone’s heart, there are always emotions for a person suffering, show love to people, people show love to you, no one suffers, life goes by easily.

SO NEXT TIME YOU ARE FACED WITH A PROBLEM, DON’T KILL YOURSELF OVER IT, IT’S NOT PERCULIAR TO ONLY YOU, JUST PUT UP A SMILE AND TELL SOMEONE. SOMEONE CARES………….
