Many of my followers know I have been concerned about a certain situation. The situation had been getting better, but now stress is beating on my back door. I am trying to remain strong and tell myself what will be will be, but this situation directly can smash my spirit.
The photo I have chosen really spells out my fears. The situation has to do with lack of control loneliness,panic, negativity, worry, tension, frustration, depression, and almost every other word on this photo. This is about someone close to our family. How I handle it will make me full of hope or despair.
Just need a pep talk from my Virily family. many of you have helped me smile in the face of my fears in my life, that has been around me lately.
Thank you one and all.

Sorry to learn about your fear. Just take them as they are. I know they are too difficult to handle them but God has all the answers if you come to Him in a prayer.
Believe me Gil i pray daily, and thank you for the reminder.
We’ve talked about how worrying about your health is self-defeating. Try thinking positively, or at least try not to worry until you have something concrete…
ok Alex you are right worrying is self-defeating. I must be strong! Thank you
it also compromises your immune system, you must be strong to be strong
I must and I will plunge ahead. Thank you
or else I will tickle you until you stop
This may seem weird but it may or may not help. Some years back when I was dealing with what for me might have been unbearable was not to everyone else. A colleague gave me this advise a few times and I quote “the best way to deal with a problem is not to deal with it at all”.
Only years later did I really understand what it should have meant for me.
One needs a healthy heart and mind to help the next person.
Always look to the positive. Mostly the positive, the blessings you have and the good outweigh the bad. Look for those bright shining moments and memories and soon you’ll feel so much better. Virtual hugs from me.
I have no great advice. I just know that somehow there will be something that touches you. For me it was a simple quote. “Life is a shipwreck, we must remember to sing in the life boats.” Quotes send me in a different direction even if it is only a few minutes.
Thank you very much for your thoughts about my situation. it helped!
The first important and urgent suggestion from me is to look at photos from Fun Image Challenge belong to my friend where she and her family wear unique glasses. Second suggestion, take an eraser and start erasing the words from the picture one by one while laughing out loud.
You may ask another suggestion if you need it, freely, no bill.
Are you trying to confuse me lol.
Such great advice from our mutual wise friend.
I’m sure you agree with my input, right?
I think you are confused and as you said that you just need a PEP TALK from your Virily family, so I gave you easy advice. But if it’s confusing I just used the simple formula; 4 + 5 = 9 is the same as “for who confused + confusions = freedom of mind”. With that formula, hopefully, you get lost to the true path.
It is not how far you fall, but how high you bounce!
Thank you DocAnderson for this thought provoking comment.
I agree with Elena.
Focus on the possibility to solve the problem and that things will get better soon, and you will feel better.
You’ve been through and overcome some much in life, I’m sure you can overcome this.
Just let yourself have a good rest and take your mind off the situation for a while, maybe you can have another perspective of it.
Thank you, alibb my friend! I try so hard, but some people keep beating your mind with their negativity. I am going to let him work it out. If it does not work out, well I tried the best that I could.
I understand how you feel (if my assumption is right). Helping someone who is very negative can be really draining.
But you know you did your best, you’re should set yourself free too, to get some fresh air … and “detoxify” yourself …
Thank you alibb, that is very good advice.
There’s a solution for everything!! Do not ever focus on the problem! Focus on the possibilities to solve it and you will find more than one! Being through a bad period of your life is totally normal. We’ve all experienced it at least once! Therefore, you are not alone! Just remember that everything happens for a reason! Stay strong, whatever it is! Mush love from Madrid!
Thank you, Elena, for your thoughtfulness. I have always had stress in my life, and I have handled it and have grown stronger. Now, as I get older things just keep getting worse, but I will keep trying.
You can always become stronger because actually you are stronger than you think you are! Stay positive! A bad period does not mean a bad life!
Thank you sweet lady, but many people know I have had most of my life full of trials, but I have learned a lot, and my love for them was worth it. This situation is different, but I know your words are wise ones, so thank you.
Things will get better my friend. The things we cannot change are always the ones that hit us the hardest. But seek peace in knowing there is nothing else you can do, you have done all you can do, now you deserve peace and happiness. Take a step back away from the situation. Take deep breaths. Things will work out. Hugs to you.
Thank you, dear Carol, for always making me feel better when I feel down. I will keep trying!
You are very welcome, trying to help the best way I can.
Great advice, Carol! I can’t agree more!! You are such a great person!
Thanks Elena, and so are you my friend.
