Is there a life without a crisis? The nature of the crisis faced by each one is different and distinct. Since each person is unique, his response to the crisis will be unique and distinct as well.
Some persons shrink before a crisis like a plant on which hot water is poured. Some others will get distressed. Their mind will become like a dark room. On the other hand, there are some people, who creatively respond in the face of crisis. I will give an example: Suppose we are going for a journey. All of a sudden, one tyre of your car gets punctured. Won’t you take instant measures to change the tyre or fix the puncture, and continue your journey?
On the other hand, will you sit idly wimping: “Oh! My car’s tyre has been punctured! So I have to cancel my trip!?” Never. We will seek means to solve the problems we are facing. We need to keep our mind calm to have our way ahead clearer. To fetch clear water from a murky river, we must wait for the river to get clearer.
Accept every crisis that comes along your way, with a serene mind. You will be able to think and find a way out only if your mind is calm and composed. Never tremble before crises. Never take a rash decision. Thus, you will be able to view the problem from a different angle. Most crises can be solved. In case, a certain crisis cannot be solved, there is no other way than to face it. Take care not to get into a conflict by confronting the crisis. Understand that there are inevitable and unavoidable crises in life.
Never look at a crisis as the end of life. It is not a full stop, but only a comma. Each crisis opens before us the door to a new beginning. It is generally said that a crisis is the end of an old thing
and the beginning of a new thing. Each crisis is an opportunity to surpass ourselves and find out new potentials within us. It brings out our innate and hidden talents. It reveals the infinite possibilities lying ahead of us.
Crises also reveal the love and honesty of those who are related to us. Some people feel alone when they are faced with crises. Even those closest to him will abandon him. Crises are an opportunity to discern true friends and true love. The lessons learned during a crisis should never be forgotten.
Today, some of us will be standing stupefied before a crisis. But, when we look back to it from the future, we would find it amusing, perhaps!
