New year, new challenges

As i type this, i feel like i am sitting in the beach, all alone, with a tsunami fast approaching. And i am just sitting, doing nothing because for some reason, i am not supposed to run away.

I guess at the bottom of it is some unshakeable belief that i will survive all this and much more.
Only time will tell if its a stupid belief or supreme will. That depends on the result anyway, is it not?

Everytime i face a tricky situation, i say to myself, “If only i can survive this, i can survive anything”. Obviously stupid idea, and as one would expect, it only gets more complicated with each passing year.

But sometimes stupidity gives you peace of mind which no genius can.

    i am sure you will survive…there are no big problems in life, just tiny little ditsurbances…
    let me tell you one of the all-time cliches but it makes tremendous sense:
    a tiny stone when brought really close and viewed looks very huge, and in a similar way any problem that anyone is currently going through looks very difficult and huge when one is actually going through it…

    this too shall pass, my friend!

    - I think this is the most important thing of all… belief in yourself and belief in destiny.
