In your everyday learning path to evolution, you will come across various troubles, and they will seem to be there just to discourage you.

Many times, you meet what is called gratuitous enemies, talkative friends who put yourself into difficult situations.

Other times you have to face physical infirmities, or peoples'lack of character, which gives you a deep feeling of sadness. The so-called friends who will not lift a finger to help you out, even if they are always asking for your help every time they come across difficulties.

Around you, inflation only gets higher and your material earnings never seem to rise in the same level, what makes you think that the more you work, less you earn and more you spend.

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

Your dream of a kind and affectionate partner also falls apart; dreams of studious children who were responsible and respected everyone; of a family who was capable of giving you all the strength you need when your heart fell small.

As if all this was not enough, there is also the indifference that makes you feel lonely in the world, with no moral support.

However, it does not matter which struggle you will have to face, whatever  you will have to witness, do not lose faith, do not allow yourself to feel disheartened.

You are not a victim of life.

You are only going through a re-education process; you are having the opportunity to set things right with life, which you have once disrespected in many of its ways.

If you know Jesus, or heard about the Cause and Effect Law, you must know  that good or evil, when seed in a  life, from life it will be harvested, and your sadness and discouragement will not contribute to the solution of your problems.

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

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

If you chose to waste it, recoiling in the curse of dismay or chose to run away, you will truly throw away the most expressive treasure that was given to us by the Creator, so that we could make ourselves rich and happy: the time.

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

The obstacles you may find on your way are not there to block your steps. They are just challenges to overcome.

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

Therefore, never let yourself feel disheartened, in any kind of circumstance, because God trusts in your power to overcome problems and in the power you have to surpass yourself.
