Yes, I feel disheartened and heartbroken after a series of issues have engulfed me. A majority of these problems have struck me with heavy blows I never expected—one after another. Financial struggles (running low), being debt-ridden, worsening family problems, health issues, losing my job, broken relationships, betrayal, injustice, and friends leaving without reason... What else does a person need to feel sad and confused?
Yet, here I am, trying to rise even after continuous blows. How would you react in such a situation?"*

I am glad you are here....while we may not be able to offer much, we can be friends on whose shoulders you can cry on. Some may give better advise based on their experiences. As to financial struggles, don't I know them very well. Yes, it has been a tough journey. The quote on my table...tough times don't last, tough people do....every time I am dejected, I look at that I tell me, Oh this time will pass. Debts.........I borrowed at one point of time....but I have always been careful about how much I borrow, and have a plan b and plan c ready for repayment, if plan a fails.
Financial problems invariably bring family problems...everybody is under stress and venting it somewhere. Job loss...oh boy...that is terrible....terrible.....broken relationships...those too...my heart goes out to you...but as I said, tough times don't last, keep trying...betrayal injustice...faced those too...it makes all of us wiser....as I realized....had those experiences not been there in my life, later on I would not recognize the bad apples and might well have been trapped to lose much higher sums. Friends that go...do not lament...they never were friends....it leaves room for good ones to enter. Please continue to try....don't give up...believe in god profoundly...give him time...he really gives reason to be happy.

Thank you for your thoughtful and encouraging message. Your words about resilience, having a plan, and trusting that tough times will pass are truly inspiring. I deeply appreciate your reminder to view challenges, like betrayal and broken relationships, as opportunities for growth. Your wisdom and compassion mean a lot, and I’m grateful for your support and friendship.

Cry, sad, discourage, hate God, but at the end of the day GOD IS MY ONLY FAITHFUL FRIEND who will help me all throughout my struggles.
Whatever happens never ever call on to God and believe, surely He will give you victory.
