How to Triumph Over Tragedy<\/h4>\n

Life is not without its disappointments. Job loss, financial troubles, the loss of a relationship or the loss of a loved one can all be devastating and even depressing. It\u2019s not unusual in these circumstances to experience great pain and devastation or even to feel like you\u2019ve hit rock bottom\u2014those feelings are all perfectly natural. But we can\u2019t stay in that negative space forever. We can\u2019t let the circumstances of the moment control us for the rest of our lives. If you\u2019ve seen your life as it once was suddenly dismantled, then it\u2019s time to reinvent yourself and start a new life. You have to figure out what to do when your dreams fall apart; otherwise you\u2019re not really living.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re Stronger Than Before<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trials and tribulations can actually make us stronger. That may be hard to see in the beginning of putting your life back together, but it is true. Something good always comes out of something bad. You don\u2019t have to be an \u00fcber-optimist, but being a pessimist doesn\u2019t get you anything but more misery. It\u2019s not always easy to know what to do when your dreams fall apart, but when you learn to triumph over tragedy, it has a way of making you feel like you can handle almost anything that comes your way. Taking the first step is the hardest part; from there on it gets a little easier over time.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Ignore Your Emotions<\/strong><\/p>\n

People often think that showing emotion makes them appear weak, but there\u2019s no denying what and who we are\u2014we\u2019re human beings and expressing emotions is a huge part of our existence. In her book, \u201cThe Ten Things to Do When Your Life Falls Apart,\u201d Daphne Rose Kingma says: \u201cWhat differentiates us from stones and butterflies is the degree to which what happens to us affects us on an emotional level. We don\u2019t just experience things [\u2026] we have feelings about these events.\u201d Emotions must be expressed in one way or another, and if you hold back the need to cry, for instance, you may wind up expressing yourself in anger instead. Besides, having a good cry can be cathartic and cleansing.<\/p>\n

Understand How Your Life Has Changed and Begin to Accept It<\/strong><\/p>\n

It may not be easy, but it is for the best. If you\u2019ve lost a job, maybe the Universe was saying, \u201cIt\u2019s time for a change.\u201d If your savings were depleted or lost, take it as a sign that maybe it\u2019s the simpler things in life that really matter\u2014like supportive family and friends. Of course, losing a loved one is a terrible thing, and no one is saying it\u2019s not, but would they want to see you lying in bed forever and not living your own life? No. They would say, \u201cHey, you\u2019ve still got life to live so live it. Let me see what you can do.\u201d As long as we\u2019re alive, life will continually try to move us forward, so don\u2019t fight against any urge you have to pick up the pieces and continue on.<\/p>\n

Embrace Your New Way of Living<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not like you really have a choice\u2014it\u2019s either wallow in sorrow, pity, shame and defeat or be grateful that you\u2019ve gotten a new lease on life, even if it\u2019s not the same life you lived before. Not only does embracing your new life bring you more joy because you\u2019re not fighting against it, but it serves as a positive example to others\u2014whether it be family, friends or your own children. Later when they are facing life-changing decisions or when their own dreams fall apart, they will remember how you faired during your own struggle and be inspired.<\/p>\n

You Can Inspire Others<\/strong><\/p>\n

Your first duty should be to yourself\u2014people may want to help you, but most importantly you have to want to help yourself. It\u2019s a choice, and choosing to move onward and upward, even when at first you\u2019re not sure what to do when your dreams fall apart, is the most wonderful gift you could ever give yourself. And it bears repeating\u2014if your own triumph over tragedy can inspire others, you\u2019ll see positive evidence that the gift you gave yourself just keeps on giving to others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
