I have a friend who is feeling deep despair at present. Her life is in turmoil. She is afraid of the future so is refusing to face it, and is 'living in the moment'. I pointed out that her fear of the future is creating a blockage which must be removed for her to move forward.
How do we get past such despair and fear? Use a positive affirmation. My friend's affirmation: 'My future is safe and happy'. Every time she feels fearful or despairing she'll say those words. Sharing her emotional pain with me is helping too - we are never alone.

Keep moving forward, you can do it!
This morning I had an image of life challenges flying at me constantly, like a volley of balls. I need to face each challenge (ball) as it comes, handle it as well as I can, and wait for the next one! The balls are not going to stop coming, because I chose life to learn.
As you face your daily volley of balls stay focussed, keep moving forward and do not give in to self pity or despair. If you have an addiction that keeps you from facing life's challenges, deal with it. I did, 24 years ago, and it changed my life. Above all, keep moving....
