Sweet Flowers

I've came to realize (a long time ago) that there are many problems in this world.
There is never a day that goes by in which I don't wish I could help solve them all.
That's just inconceivable.
However, I still try to do my best in helping the people around me to be stress free. Sometimes my empathy gets the best of me. Despite that, I still feel the need to take care of all of my friends and family. In all honesty, if they were to tell me the one single thing that would make them happy forever, I'd cross the world to find that precious item for them. I wouldn't want anything in return. The only thing I'd be more than happy to accept is a beautiful thank you and a hug.
There's a purpose to this post.
My reason could be more elaborate but I'd like to keep this next post short as well.

We all have problems: big and small, mathematical and logistic, irrelevant and life changing. No matter how difficult the problem may seem, there is always a way out. The answer is hiding, all there is to do is find it. That's the beauty of life: our hardships are mere lessons that we grow to master as we continue to fail them with every trial. Once we overcome these problems, we pick up so much from them and learn to discover opportunities and inspiration in them.

Just remember not to take life's problems and hardships as a burden rather receive them as a comforting sigh of relief knowing that the challenges that you're about to go through will be worth all the effort once you see the reward that life will compensate you with.

When hardships come your way let the strength of your character show: be courageous, smart, faithful, and calm. In other words:

"Flowers never emit so sweet and strong a fragrance as before a storm. When a storm approaches thee, be as fragrant as a sweet-smelling flower."
-Jean Paul Richter
