 The once loud cacophony quieted, to a dull roar and then a balanced fluid flow like a calm conversation and then finally settled down, down, down to the quaint sounds of whispers sharing gentle things and soothing my now un-busy mind -j,r.

Burning bridges to start over  ALIKHATOUN - ALIKHATOUN.DEVIANTART.COM/ART/MOVE-ON-ORIGINAL-PAINTING-626069821 We all suffer from tragic occurrences in our lives. In the end, however, it is these experiences that mould us into becoming the best version of ourselves. We must learn to balm the wounds in our hearts, heal the scars in our souls, and let go of unfortunate events out of our control to move to a happier state of being. The path to happiness lies beyond the crossroads where adversity meets realisation.

Succumbing to the lows of intense yearning  MARGARITA GEORGIADIS - MARGARITAGEORGIADISART.COM/APPS/PHOTOS/PHOTO?PHOTOID=153357259 Longing for something we had or have lost or never had, to begin with, can be debilitating. The vulnerability longing creates can compel us to idolise or desire someone or something to the extent that it leaves us in dismay when we don't see it actualise. Failing to get up from such a setback can leave us dispirited till we decide to live in the moment.

A family that stands up for each other stays together  JOHN HOLCROFT - SOCIETY6.COM/PRODUCT/BROKEN-SOUL-N0R_PRINT#S6-4321975P4A1V45 Human beings are fragile creatures; adversity can shatter us in a manner that makes it impossible for us to piece ourselves back together. The pain you endure may also get instilled in the hearts and minds of your family members. It is often the same members who help you stand up back on your feet. It comes as no surprise that psychologist and counsellors habitually recommend people suffering from hardship to keep their friends involved in their life and their families even more so.

Being the victim of societal objectification  S.YOSHIKO - SOCIETY6.COM/PRODUCT/BROKEN-WINGS-87V_PRINT#1=45 Sexual objectification, domestic abuse, sexual assault or innuendos, and human trafficking can leave you in a tormented state physically, mentally or emotionally. Most women have faced some form violence according to WHO that claims about 1 in 3 women worldwide to have experienced either physical or sexual violence. The impact of victimisation is sometimes so grave that it makes you shy away from society and may even make you suicidal; especially if you refrain from seeking help because of the stigma attached to being a victim.
