It's a hard struggle on such an unforgiving rocky path, and I feel for you. Except when you feel helpless, you need to remember is that this situation is not permanent. It is temporary and given time it will change; it will. You should always remember this and make an effort to keep your mind positive. You need to try hard to improve the situation even when it seems that your efforts are making no difference. You need to think beyond your current situation. Make short term and long term goals to beat the severity of situations. Keep yourself motivated and inspired. Eventually, all of what I've said can significantly show, making you feel better about yourself.

After some time things will definitely start improving and it will boost your courage and hope, like it did mine. A day will come when you will find yourself out of this situation, I promise you.

Our lives are very short, sometimes very exhausting. I realise it is very frustrating to feel like you are situated in such a hard place and the wrong time, like nothing in the world can make you feel better.

I felt it, too.

When I was going through this experience of helplessness over my parent's deaths, I began creating an alternative world of my own, inside my head, that no-one could take from me, where no-one judges me, where there are no boundaries. It made my dreams possible, made the ones I lost and loved feel closer to me than ever before.

You have to have something to look up to, something to dream about, a passion that can make you be awake all night just of the excitement of doing it the next morning .

And the most important thing:

Love yourself , everyone is unique, and if you don't think that about yourself, then you don't see yourself for who you really are.

Last year my 12 year old daughter said, "When you feel helpless, help someone and you will feel the blessing coming your way. God has many ways to teach us what is important so learn and make your life feel worth it."

Out of the mouths of babes and young ones comes amazing truth.
