We as young people in our twenties are in the phase of life when we are being handed over responsibilities and are expected to handle them well along with surviving in our educational and other personal affairs.
Most of us carry our problems and hardships with us everywhere and keep thinking about them all the time. What this does is get us mentally fatigued and we fail to perform other chores. We do not seem as happy as we used to be before. We become gloomy. These mountains become our excuse to avoid friends and moments of rejoicing. We avoid being happy and cheerful. We keep these heavy mountains on our head.
One thing we should keep in mind is that life is never going to be easy. There will be ups and downs and we have to go through the downs as well. So its better we go through them with a smile and even if not a smile then atleast with peace. A student getting tensed about studies should thank Allah that he has studies to care about and is not among those who cant afford education. Similarly a person getting tensed about issues of his agricultural land should thank Allah for the tiny problems he is facing because if he did not have the land he would not be facing these problems and for sure won't be enjoying the land that he has at the moment. A man worried about providing his kids and wife with facilities should be thankful that he has his family to care for unlike many others couple who cant conceive. Distress never solves problems, it worsens them. Dont take me wrong. I dont mean that we should not worry about things but there is surely a limit for everything. For once lets let go of these mountains. We were never supposed to carry them on our heads. We were supposed to climb them and create great name for ourselves and succeed in life. The sooner we realize this and let go of our tension and anxities the better we are. We should not keep thinking about our problems and make them a mountain for us. In the end it all passes away so why dont we smile as long as we pass through these dark forests of hardships and be a tiny shining firefly that fly across them spreading light.
