When we fall

When we fall, what do we do: lie down there and cry in self-pity? Or get angry and blame others? No, it is smarter to get up, brush off the dust or tend to the wounds and move forward.

Falling again will be foolishness. Learning from mistakes and not repeating them would mean being smart. When we fall, we cannot rely on others to be with us. One can rely only on one's own self and one's God (the divine spark within each one) in adversities. So called friends flee when we are down. It is in times of trial that we lean on God (the infinite wisdom and spirit of the universe). It requires determination and will-power to change those habits (formed by one's repeated thoughts and actions) that lead to one's fall.
