i really feel exhausted and its like i didn't own my life anymore. with all the frustrations and problems that keep on popping out, makes feel darn tired. i want to do the things i like and enjoy my life but it seems i do not even own my time. with all of these, all i want to do is take a rest and have a long long break. i know God will provide me the strength that i more need today and for the coming days. i claim it and this too shall pass!

I am sorry you are going through the things that are taking your peace of mind right now. You are in a valley, and you are going through some things, but the key is that you are going 'through' them which means they will end and will not stay that way. And you are so correct. I say it all the time to myself because of all life has handed in my life: 'this too shall pass sayeth the Lord' Amen

Amen! i believe too that THIS TOO SHALL PASS and with God nothing is impossible. whatever i can not do, He can do. i just want to release all the stress in my body through writing here and it works well. yesterday i really feel down and then now i feel lot better than yesterday and i believe it will be better and better. to tell you honestly, i am not writing here in mylot for almost 5 days because i feel i can not share something good cause i used to write about being positive and so on and then, i am here writing about negative things. that i would not want to really share but with all the responses wow, it helps me alot. thank you and to all you are giving their response i really appreciate it. God bless us all.

Sometimes I do feel like I'm carrying the whole world. If times like this I go on a break for 2 or 3 days sometimes even more. Normally I go out with my friends and talk nonsense topics. In this way I feel relaxed.

hope i can do it easily because i have a family whom i need to take care of. in this times, i missed being a child. a child has no problem and they always have the peace of mind we adults have lost through the years. all i can do now is to pray and God will take charge. thanks for the reponse.

May I ask why you don't have time for yourself? Is it because of too much work, or busy with your studies? No matter what your reasons are, you really deserve to have a break.

hi bhonti! i am a working mom and i now a mom like me will feel this way at some point in life. i have a daily work everyday and after work i need to be a wife and a mother. i do not complain about it because my family is my strength and blessing. but again, i can not help but feel this way because for the longest time i am selfless and it seems i do not own my life anymore. i can't do what i really want like to just stay at home because i still need to work. but then again, i believe God has a better plan for me and I know He is with me. thanks for the response dear. this too shall pass...

Having in mind is such the hardest thing as a Human being. It seems our problems has been recycle over and over again. To find happiness and peaceful life is what we desire to do. Our problems keep slipping away if we just don't mind and let it pass by. To have inner peace in our hearts and mind. There are times we feel the world is in our shoulder, We feel the life that we had is not ours because of commitments and full of problems but we never give up that how Human Being grasp the trials in life. I do feel also what you've said. Every person feels the same way but despite the exacerbation we tend to have a break and let loose all our worries and sorrows in life. Human beings is never been perfect but the uniqueness of individual comes up when they confess it to GOD.

hello there! that's exactly how i feel. but nevertheless, i know there's no problem bigger than God and i also believe with him nothing is impossible. hopefully i can get by with this in time. i never want to entertain such feeling for a long time. i need to let it go because it will not do good to me. thanks for sharing dear.

Things happened. But life is all about sacrificing, if you want to be happy and own your life, fight for that problem, sacrifice and you will get what you want.

i want to believe that life is all about sacrificing, really. but i couldn't help myself why such things need to happen. but again God has his reasons and we cannot question it. i know i can pass it by and i will be stronger than ever. thanks for the response.

Funny, because as of this very moment I am asking a good friend of mine of what to do in times like this. I feel tired and losing my interest in everything. He told me, I should take a break and try new things. Better yet, have time to consult with God. He knows everything, doesn't He? Don't worry my friend. You're not alone. Just have a break if its what you really need. Sometimes, you need to look and try new things for you to get back the "life" you are saying.

yes, i really need a break but still i have no time for that. but i believe God will provide me the strength that i need and despite of all the problems and pressures around me i am feeling blessed because i have a very good husband and an adorable son. this is more than enough for me to know that God loves me and the fact that He still give me a chance to wake up today is already a blessing. but again this feeling is haunting me and all i can do is to pray. thanks for the response.
