THE SOUND OF ONE HAND CLAPPING






There are times in our lives when things are completely out of control and you feel lost in the dark. It just seems that there is no way out and you cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel. Have hope, can you hear the sound of one hand clapping in the distance. It beckons you to the sound of hope.

 Let people help you, this is a lifeline that is extended to you, grab it. Sometimes you really can’t help yourself. That’s when it’s time to rely on the kindness of your fellow man. Find a friend, relative, therapist, counselor, co-worker, or anyone you trust with your situation and ask them for help. Chances are they won’t say no, and even if they did, you can just move on to someone else. People who love you and care about you will help you if you tell them what’s wrong and ask for their help. Even if they can’t offer much in the way of advice, sometimes just telling someone about your situation is enough to lift you back towards the light. You may also be able to find a support group full of people who have conquered your problem and are there to support others seeking their way back from the brink. Whatever you do, reach out. Don’t sit in the darkness alone; follow the sound until you see the light.
