I am writing this inorder to reduce my pain. I believe expressing your pain to someone would reduce the burden we are going through.
I and my family have been through many hurdles since we are going through them, I do not understand when this will come to an end.
At the age of 23, I lost my dad. My mom is my sole survivor to come out of it. She is my hero. I do not understand how she survived all that pain and giving strength to me and my brother.. Now she is trying to get me married, but could not find anyone. I lost hope and faith in god. Naturally she is a believer of god but she also started to lose faith in him. In our culture if you dont get your girl child get married at a right age, they will blame the parents.. Since my mom is the only one now, they will blame her. I do not want that to happen.. I cannot bear the pain. I do not know what to do.

I lost my dad at 22. Just n couple of months ago. A sorrow that can't be placed into words. My saving grace was my faith, my living relationship with a very present God. Culture is a difficult barrier to overcome, especially when faced with other trails in life aswell, but culture is also a human-created system. I understand your loss of hope, it's not always easy to trust there will be a light when the darkness seems overpowering. But just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there, the world has it's own view of how things should be, but just because it's how it should be doesn't mean it's how it has to be. If you have just an inkling of hope in a loving God, just a little shread, please hold on. God used a shepard and 5 stones to end a war. He has far greater plans that you can imagine. Don't lose hope. The world cannot take that from you. You have been given this test as a formation of character and a beacon to others that trails of this earthly world cannot overpower the strength of a mighty Saviour.
ReplyThanks for your words. I am very sorry for your loss. Lots of strength to you.
I am trying to hold on to a very thin line of hope, I do not want that to break, want to see it turn into a beautiful bridge to create a path to reach him.
ReplyI think we all belong from a suppressing society, where people are constantly told what to do and how to behave, and everyone has to, in order to be within the society. But when you dare to find a different path then what usually people take, you get criticized, but when you succeed, they’ll be the ones to clap! These steps do affect our parents, but we should hold still, we’re not here to change the society, we’re just here to live our lives as we want and not as society wants! :)
