Winning The Unseen Battle

in Project HOPE4 years ago

Most of the battles that people face are on the inside and reside in their mind. When you see people, you will not know the kind of battle that they are being challenged with and your actions or inactions can either help the person to overcome the challenge or make the person cracked by it. If you cannot help someone overcome their battles, at least do not increase the battle for him.

A friend of mine narrated the ordeal he is faced in his place of work - the injustices, the harsh treatment from his boss and all. He just submitted to fate and willing to bear all of those battles because it was his only source of livelihood for both him and his fiancée. However, the cracking part is that when he comes home in the night after the work and facing heavy traffic, his fiancée will be angry that he came home late and rain some ill words on him.

Many people are in similar scenario where their unseen battles go unrecognized by even the people they expect to provide a shoulder to lean on. Fighting your battles alone might make you to be cracked by it but when you know that there are many others that have your back, you will have enough strength to go through it.

At some points in your life, you may be faced with a situation that will almost make you to quit but just to remind you, many people are in similar or even worse situations and some of them have made a headway. It is also helpful to focus on the people that have succeeded in winning their battles and do what they did.

While doing that, also try not to create extra battles for someone else and try not to be a battle that they will have to win. Remember that it may be the person you want to create battles for that will hold the solutions to your battles tomorrow - so be wise. The joy of living is not just to live a lone life but to live for others.

Before a challenge comes to you, you have already been equipped to take it on. You do not win or lose a battle because the battle is small or big, it is only a state of the mind. If you have resolved within your mind that you are not able to face the battle, then the battle will overwhelm you. If you resolve within your mind that you are stronger than your unseen battles, then your victory is almost certain.

There is nothing wrong to be faced with battles or temptations. The only thing bad thing about it is when you have allowed it to overwhelm you. Even if you have been overpowered in the past by your challenges, you still have your fighting spirit within you and you can stage a comeback.

Thanks for reading

Peace on y'all

I am of a strong belief that everyone we meet should be treated with love and respect because we have no idea of the unseen battles that they fight inwardly.

That's right. We should not allow our actions to crack people because they may already be going through a lot.

Thanks buddy

Lots of battles at different places and with different people. Nice piece

That's right. The world is very challenging and the people you meet may be going through a form of challenge.

hi @samminator ,
you are absolutely right, many people don't know the battles you are facing and instead of making things easier they end up increasing the pressure you are under, this is happening for the ph community where a group of people who hate our project are giving negative votes without thinking about the damage they are doing to people with very difficult lives,

Looks like the bot was sleeping :)

haha.. may be
