Often during testing times, we may seek refuge in special friendships that provide solace and comfort. Such friendships can be particularly enduring and important because they provide a life-raft or stability at a critical time in our life.
Sometimes it can be rewarding to follow a different lifestyle and indulge our alternative interests and values.
It is important to follow one’s heart.
Whilst it is important not to compromise our sense of self, we also must learn when to let go of unrealistic or unfeasible goals or illusions/expectations.
Sometimes we need to make important adjustments and deal with our limitations/weaknesses in order to grow.
Differences can lead to a lot of soul-searching. The way we deal with our differences and cope with adversity will have a big impact on our life’s journey. In many cases, adversity or obstacles can strengthen us and help us to find a purpose. They may challenge us to make commitments or to look at our life from different perspective.
