The faith in Shiva must be living and unwavering. You cannot achieve anything sublime with a weak faith. Know that Shiva is there for you at every step. You cannot reach the goal with a faith that flickers at every step. Blind faith should be turned into rational faith through understanding. "One who thinks that Brahman does not exist, he himself becomes non-existent,” Taittiriya Upanishad.  Yes know that the world is a difficult place. You may be having enemies, people who envy you, feel jealous of you and giving you lots of stress. But remember, As long as you know that Shiva is with you, it doesn't matter who is against you! "Those who worship Me by surrendering all their activities unto Me, are always devoted to Me, always meditate upon Me, Having always fixing their minds upon Me, O Parth - to them, I swiftly rescue from the ocean of birth and death.'' Don't expect life to always be happy. Think about the Yin and Yang in Chinese philosophy, which states that opposite forces are often interconnected. In suffering, you can find great strength, in heartbreak you can find resilience, and in loss you can find a renewed appreciation for life. And there will always be people who dislike you, yet keeping tab of all your activities. But As long as you’re not hurting anyone else, keep living your life YOUR way. March ahead with your head held up high and heart strong, with complete faith in God. Sometimes we get lost in trying to live for someone else, trying to meet their expectations, and doing things just to impress them. Remember it's your life. Do what makes you happy. Live, do and love so that you are happy, because when it comes down to it, relationships can end in an instant, but you will live with yourself for the rest of your life. And You don’t ever have to feel guilty about removing toxic people from your life, be it a relative, colleague or a childhood friend. You don’t have to make room for people who cause you pain or make you feel small. If a person disregards your feelings, continues to treat you in a harmful way, they need to go. The person who loves you will always make an effort to stay, no matter what!
