Do Not Be Afraid of Hostile Winds:
Life is full of vicissitudes and misfortunes. ‘All progress implies pain. Our bodily growth involves pain, and it is through painful struggles that our character is strengthened. Losses make us prudent, physical ailments teach us to be careful, and force us to adopt proper remedies.
Misfortunes of life are irresistible, but how we face them, makes difference. To some they are bad lucks, evil and painful, but to others, who are wise, they afford from the hostilities opportunities for further progress and betterment.
“Wisdom” is to use the adversity. Possession of endless wealth do not contribute to happiness, but on the other hand may lead to great misery and wretchedness. Our great use of adversity is that it serves as a test of friendship. Prosperity makes friends, but adversity tries them. Rich men may have plenty of friends but they lack true love and devotion.
Misfortunes are sometimes blessings in disguise. The darkest cloud has a sliver lining. It is, therefore, wise not to repine or grumble when in difficulties, as these useless regrets are unmanly, but they must be courageously faced and tried to overcome all troubles. We should struggle to “know how sublime a thing it is, to suffer and be strong”.
Do not be afraid of the hostile winds O'hawk!
It blows to make you fly higher and higher!!

Hi Mishaikh,
This is such an inspiring blog. It uplifts the weary and the downtrodden. I always believe that we grow from pain although we may not appreciate it until we have seen how far it has brought us. I recall Hemingway's words " Life breaks everyone, but some become strong at the broken places." Thanks for this beautiful share! ;)
Thanks Setareh for your comprehensive comment.
Dear Mishaikh, very well said; almost all people get shocked whenever they face a hardship. Some feel miserable while on the other hand some gather their strength and face the problem bravely. They even overcome it and turn it into a blessing. All hardships and happy moments will pass; the important point is we should learn the lessons that each of these facts has to teach us and apply them to live a better life and be a better person.
Thanks Shoba for your illustrative comment.
