Someone once said to me that friendships are established the moment when someone says ‘wow that happened to me too….’

There are so many things that we experience in life and half the time we feel alone in those experiences. Talking about is way of dealing with it and sometimes you feel better once you’ve let it all out. But wouldn’t it better instead of just letting it all out you could also find someone who understands what you’ve been through, someone who has shared a similar experience.

For some really inspirational and uplifting words you could look up any of the following: letter of encouragement to a teenager christian encouragement words of encouragement death

People who have shared a similar experience to you understand your situation much better and you can easily relate to them. I always feel cheated when I share my problems with someone who has no idea what its like being in my situation and all they can tell me is ‘don’t worry things will be fine.’

Someone who has been through similar experiences will not only give you words of encouragement but objective and sound advice as well. Having thought it through I decided to try it out and talk to someone who had been in my shoes before. Would you believe at the end of it we were sharing tea and having a few laughs about it too?

Psychologists, counseling and all that is all very professional I agree but sometimes you just need something real, something that you can relate too. You need to hear things that are not taken from a manual or talk to someone who is not following a set of guidelines and rules. everyday words coming from a genuine person can be more uplifting than words from a text book.

You are able to look at your situation objectively and come up with possible solutions. Even though the problem may still be there just knowing that someone went thorough it and made it goes a long way. Ultimately no matter how painful an experience maybe you must be able to get up and carry on with your life.
