“Meaning makes patience of pain, the gratitude of sorrow, cheerfulness of joy, and the key is to lasting joy”

Dr. Christina Hibbert

Identifying the purpose of your life is much more important than just living your life because if you live a life that has no purpose than you are not living your life you are just wasting the time on the earth and doing nothing except roaming around like fools.

The pains you bear in your life leads you towards the purpose of your life because you learn some lessons from that pain or hardship you face and you work on those lessons to excel in your life and eventually you reach the final result of that pain or hardship which is destined for you.

I always try to learn from my mistakes and try to not repeat them. Whenever I was in a situation when I face some difficulties I try to ask someone to help me out of that situation. I always take out some outcomes out of that situation that why I faced that situation? What are the factors that are the cause of such circumstances? When I get these answers I try to fix those problems and try to mitigate those factors of my life.

The biggest pain of my life is to live without my family to complete my education. I traveled to Faisalabad for my graduation and I have to stay there for 4 years. At the start, I and my roommate were the only two in a room of five and he usually stays in the room of his friend and I was all alone in the room because, in the beginning, I don’t have many friends in the university too. So I feel homesick. But with the passage of time, I started feeling better as I got more friends in my hostel. After the first semester, I shifted my room with my classmates and that experience was so amazing that I can barely think of my home afterward. Although I travel to my home every weekend but living at the hostel with some really amazing people have me allot of moments to laugh at and a lot to memorize.

What I take from this experience is that we always learn from new experiences and has to keep on moving whatever it takes. Because new things teach you new things and even can give you a lot to spend a whole life in that.
