Your marriage is on the rocks. Or financial ruin is staring you in the face. Or you are likely to be laid off and there is no other source of income for the family. Or your children are not doing well; you have a suspicion that they have taken to bad company and may be even to drugs. There could be any number of such poignant situations of human drama. Things are looking very bleak today. Dark clouds are gathering on the horizon. Really depressing - very depressing, indeed. You are unable to sleep. You wonder how to face the future - thinking that future is a frozen frame of this moment’s snap shot.
Did you not face many similar traumatic situations in the past? Do they not ring familiar to you? Did you not think at those times, "this is the end"? Did you not also think at those times, that heavens were about to fall on you? How many times have they actually fallen?
If you do not actually panic, there is always a way out. The "exit" is really there - written in luminous letters, but you do not see it, when you are panicky. You will get out of this scary situation too soon - you always did. May be you have to sacrifice some things or undergo some small loss in trying to get out of this difficult situation, but there is certainly a way out, if only you are willing to remain calm. Every crisis soon passes. This crisis also will pass soon. If you have faith in yourself and in your god, you will always find a solution for any crisis situation.
The next thought is “About anger”
