On your everyday learning, on your necessary path to evolution, you come across various barriers that seem to be there just to discourage you throughout the way.

Many times you meet the so-called enemies for free, those talkative friends who put yourself in predicaments.

Other times you face physical infirmities, or peoples' lack of character, and get deeply sad because your buddies will not lift a finger to help you, even though they keep you busy every time they come across difficulties.

Around you inflation only gets higher and your material earnings never seem to follow along properly, what makes you think the more you work, the less you make and the more you spend.

You get used to seeing all your domestic desires collapsing and feel like you do not have the right to run away.

Your dreams of a kind and affectionate partner fall apart, as well as those of hard-studying, responsible and respectful children, and of a family able to give you all the strength you need when your heart feels tight.

As if it is not enough, there is also the indifference that makes you feel lonely in the world, with no moral support or whatsoever.

However, no matter the struggle that suits you, no matter what you have to witness, do not let yourself get discouraged, do not allow yourself to feel disheartened.

You are not a victim of life.

You are only going through re-education process; you are having the opportunity to get even with the life you once disrespected in many aspects.

You who knows Jesus, or heard about the cause and effect Law, must realize that the good or bad planted in our lives will be harvested from life, and your sadness or discouragement will not contribute to the solution of your problems.

You shall learn therefore how to better analyze the situations you go through. You shall learn to forgive, to understand, to respect the differences, to speak less, to get inside the meaning of things, to condemn less, to be more indulgent.

The implacable time does not stop. Therefore, if you take profit from it and learn how to grow up and be happy, it will bless you with expressive clarity.

If you choose to waste it, following the curse of dismay or running away, you will truly have thrown away the most expressive treasure that is given to us by the Creator, so that we can make ourselves rich and happy: time.

Do not get lost in a web of discouragement. Trust God, Who always grants you the best, giving you the chance to shine and be happy.

The obstacles that come up on your way are not meant to stop you from walking. They are challenges to be surpassed.

Every time you succeed when finding yourself in difficulties, you get stronger and more confident.

Therefore, never let yourself feel disheartened, no matter what the circumstance is, because God trust your power to overcome barriers and to beat yourself.
