RT @TheMoonCarl: LAST SHAKEOUT BEFORE THE CRAZIEST ALTCOIN SEASON OF YOUR LIFE 🚀

Short-term fixes to big problems only make them grow into monsters. At first, you feel safe because the problem looks small, manageable. But over time, the monster grows. And when it finally comes for you, ready to eat you alive, you look around for help. If you never valued human relationships over personal goals, you will find no one standing beside you. Even today, when you’ve been kind and helpful to many in the past, you may discover that when your time of crisis comes, those same people find endless excuses not to help. You feel like a lonely man, left to be eaten by the monster you yourself created. You fed it in the days when you were enjoying the fruits of your efforts. You believed that time would always remain the same. You thought life would always be kind, that you had control over it. That was the illusion. And illusions break when life throws challenges you are not mentally or emotionally prepared for. They arrive like a shock. You think you can handle it, but some problems grow so large with time that fixing them becomes impossible. At that point, you surrender. I surrendered a few years ago when I lost everything in crypto. Debts piled on my head. I felt ashamed of being a failed son and husband. In those moments, I found myself worthless. I told myself it was over. But sometimes, just one moment of positivity can change everything. That is when divinity steps in. Because it is not you who decides the direction of life. It is divinity. Help comes in mysterious forms - a stranger’s word, a song, a line from a movie. These are not coincidences. They are creations of divinity, designed to lift people in their darkest hours. And when you are destined to see light, it will appear. Even if people abandon you, divinity will not. It will protect you. It will give you back self-belief. And self-belief is all you need. That seed of belief grows into new energy. You begin making the right choices. Your mind sharpens. Your thinking clears. Life runs almost on autopilot, guided by divinity toward its predecided destination. You realize that life continues as it must. And in that realization, you are freed - from sorrow, from joy, from the highs and the lows. You learn to remain steady whether at the peak or at the bottom. At that point, you no longer cling to outcomes. You simply thank divinity for the life you’ve been given, and you live in devotion. That is when you break the chains you forged for yourself while growing up. That is when you are truly free.
