Life is not about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. :)
To some people other people's life seem easier.Most of the time we spend time thinking about how miserable our life is and have the common perception that it is only us who have to go through so many, unending problems.I had the same perception but my friend showed me life from a different way.She belongs to a middle class family,her father earns that much needed for there daily sustenance.She does not have big dreams and lives a simple life.She is my best friend.I deal with a lot of problems everyday and for me it is not easy to get the things i desire.I have to struggle for it.There are times when i feel that I should not live and take this major step of suicide but this friend of mine always gives me that required emotional support that i want.She tells me to not think about my problems because most of us think about what other people have to say about us.Somewhere in this process our true beauty is buried in a dark corner inside us.We all are surrounded by criticism and tend to pay a lot more attention than required,that is why we end up sitting depressed and demotivated . In extreme cases it takes the form of suicide.We all have this one precious life that we need to live to the fullest because it is once and cannot be recreated unless somebody believes in reincarnation.

I know there are people who are not supported by their parents and are under constant scrutiny of their relatives.Trust me more than the people living outside , it is your own relatives or parents who sometime make it difficult for you to succeed in life because we want to follow our dreams and choose a career or do things of our choice and interest.We should at this moment,calm down and think that people criticizing you, really matter in the long run or not.A person walking on road hears a dog barking at him but just does not care and walks away towards his other important things in life.My friends the same attitude we need to have, when obstacles come in our way and try to stop us from achieving our dreams.

My friend told me that you should do what your heart says and not what other WANT you to do.We should live our life our way and make it beautiful with our hands.More than your parents it is sometimes your friends who understand you.We fight with them and make mistakes but its they who forgive us and become friends again.Things we fail to share with our family can easily be shared with true and close friends.

This way she changed my perception about life.Hats off to such people who have been so supportive to their friends in various ways.
