I have suffered and have been tormented a lot in the hands of this evil world for nearly a decade with absolutely no fault of mine ..why should I live when the years which should have been spent in happiness and merry was lost in all sorts of pain and abuse and suffering?
Only a decade? If you’re an early teen, First, you don’t know how the rest of your life will turn out. Often high school / college can be a turning point socially, where people are less judgmental.
Second, if you are in your 20s, while I won’t mitigate the fact that suffering for that long sucks, often times such suffering can be (not always, but can be) a great conduit for characters. A big dumb lion doesn’t need to learn any skills to navigate, prey just presents itself and it kills it. However, a Fox has to be a craftier creature, sneaky and conniving, self-sufficient. While not as strong ad the lion, In dire circumstances, the Fox will know how to survive rather than the lion.
Additionally, such pain can make you more empathetic to other people’s suffering, a gift that other people need.
But besides all of this, the harsh reality is a lot of it is your outlook. You have to analyze the circumstances as dispassionately and as rationally as possible, and reinterpret it in a positive way.
A homeless man can look at life in such a way that he scrapes on by, or he can look at life in a way that he’s free to travel wherever he wants and see the world more broadly, viewing life like an adventure. An extreme example, of course, but you surely have opportunities that you can take advantage of. Take, for example, Emily Dickinson. She was a woman with no rights at all and was a villified recluse. She spent all her time writing, and her work was found after death, where she became a recognized national writer. Again, your circumstances are nowhere near that extreme and you can adjust your things accordingly.
Viewing the world as “evil” and “accursed” will only make that a self-fulfilling prophecy.
One of the harsh realities of life is that there is no equilibrium principle, we are all subject to forces and fates out of our control. It’s how you choose to interpret and react to what you were given.
