Failure

We, as humans are capable of solving complex problems, inventing life changing technologies however we lack in terms of knowing what our fellow companions actually need. I’m talking about the issue of mental health which is an increasingly pertinent topic in today’s day and age however it is not addressed enough. It can be in the form of depression, fear, anxiety, inferiority complex, etc. 

It is so ironical that the same people who laugh and enjoy with us are unable to recognise when we need them the most. A cheerful appearance on the outside- a rotten heart within. An important aspect to deal with mental health is to not feel embarrassed by what you are going through.  It is not shameful on any scale 

Failure is a broad cause of mental health. Failing at something in a positive sense can be defined as being the best one can  at something. It may not always be enough. Sometimes we do things which we aren’t capable of. As a students point of view, not every engineer is from IIT, not every successful person is a rank holder. Accepting the fact that each one has a specific capability and potential is essential. The desire and excitement cannot outweigh potential on any scale. The thought process of the young generation has to change. Every failure is not the onset to depression, fear of never making a name for yourself in the community. 

FAILURE Failure leaves us disturbed  We often wonder if our goals and path have diverged  Everything seems to change ,we act strange Is there a necessity of an outrage Failing makes us question our effort Should I have surrendered earlier  All kinds of dirt enters our mind Doesn’t the negativity make us blind The pain must be shared  It cannot all be bared  We must be courageous to speak  It is not a crime in such times to be accompanied  Hiding failure is the fear of being judged The nightmare that my life will be smudged  An object of amusement  A loser who has no chance of improvement  It is not easy to rise after failing When the entire world is calling People have no expectations  Let go of your frustration and focus on new creations Positivity drives us ahead Not resistivity and captivity  No one can change my nature If I am not ready to plant fresh seeds of confidence and self improvement  Failure does not make us succeed The character shown defines a man We can follow a new life plan  Be it a head of a clan or a newspaperman Failure makes us stronger and braver The real flavour of life is what we savour  Success is not a thing of my creation Now it is my one and only destination

We may not realise the other persons pain if we do not know. However, once one knows the situation ignoring and not caring can only worsen the situation. Teenage years shape one’s personality and not having adequate help can scar an individual for life. The longer a sufferer fails to get help, the deeper the wound gets. We, as students often have minor issues which if not addressed may become huge obstacles. This hinders our progress. 

An outsider may never understand the pain one goes through. A gentle hug or a comforting talk can do the trick at times. Another obstacle is bullying in educational institutions. This ultimately has no winner. The bully cannot live with himself knowing that he was the reason for another’s downfall. It kills him from inside. It is high time we realise that mental health is not different from physical health. 

You may  be happy on the outside, 

On the inside, the will to live may have died,

There is no need to hide, 

You can easily encounter it if you have someone by your side.
