Rain or shine, #FromAMother continues!
If there is one thing we should learn from our parents' generation, it is the strength they have built within themselves, through their life struggles. I kid you not, our parents are so strong that you can hardly tell if they're not doing alright. They don't sympathize themselves. Sometimes, I look at Maa standing under the scorching sun or under the rain during this project and immediately think to myself,
"do we sympathize ourselves too often?"
I have seen how parents & grandparents struggle and fight hard, without giving in to their mind. But we live in a generation now that encourages too much of self-sympathy and that immediately stops our growth, hardwork and effort.
We should be more empathetic towards ourselves, not sympathetic.
Sympathy - i am helpless, i am useless, i cant do anything, i feel bad for myself. Nobody wants to help me.
Empathy - what can I do to help myself? I am not going to sit here and do nothing about it! Who can I reach out to? Am I investing enough of effort into my life, and my actions?
Empathy is the way of life. We CAN. And we MUST. ❤
