The "UPs" & "DOWNs" of Life

Life is like a roller coaster ride ,sometimes high up in the air and sometimes really down to earth. However, these cannot be the ones which control or influence our faith and devotion towards the Lord nor our psychological balance. This might seem really heavy and "too much" but depending on the situation , it might really feel a bit more real and practical.
When we are jolly upbeat and enjoying life , it sometimes feels like this, as to the world is the most amazing place to live in. I am not sure how many of you really feel like this but this is truly my experience. I just feel it like a fairy tale but fail to realize that it is actually just a fairy tale and can never actually remain like that forever. Instead we should enjoy the happy moments without forgetting the reality of this world and the reality of our position in this world. It is not going to be all that difficult for us to remember this because whether we like it or not, the "Downs" are really going to pull us down!!
When we are overcome by difficult or even horrible torturing situations, depending on the extent of distress , our mood and enthusiasm seems to have disappeared completely and we feel defeated and lost. Like I said, this is my experience and it is possible that people might have completely different ones .We might feel that we will  always remain an unsuccessful defeated one. Happens. Just like my mother says, this is the time that Krishna is testing us whether we hold on to our faith and will or just drop down. It is going to be difficult but there is always a thing called "Hope" and no one can take this away from us but we should not lose it. " God helps those who help themselves" - Ultimately, we are going to get help and feel better.
Finally, in the conclusion, I would just like to say that we can be really happy by always remembering the Lord as our true well wisher . At the same time we can be free and successful by remembering the reality during the happy times and retaining and strengthening our hope and willpower during the bad times.
