One day I was counseling one of my associates on a family matter. He had lost his job,on the verge of divorce and just down right depressed. The feeling of hopelessness oozed out of his pores. When he told me he was worthless I felt his pain because I too had those thoughts once before in my younger years.As he spoke, I did to him what was done to me. As he told me all the reasons he was unimportant I denounced them. As he talked, all I did was kept uttering his kids names. He became bothered and asked why was I doing that. My answer was, "Your children are the reason you are important". All you need to do is think of them when you feel down and out. If you truly love your children then the thought of them should lift your spirits. They should be enough reason for you to carry on.
Thought of the day: Children make your life meaningful
