 Adverse times creates strong individuals: Truth or lie?
This is an absolutely lie, facing adverse times it just is a hard way of learning how to face
life. And from that difficulties, you are learning about what to do in specific situations, if
you are going to avoid them, if you are going to try to solve them, ignoring them or run
away from them.

But, why sometimes, for example, two people that are in the same adverse situation, one is
able to deal with it, but the other can’t. This is simple, sometimes people don’t like to not
having the control and sometimes they don’t care, or they just not have the enough
experience to know how to deal with it.

In my opinion, I think that adverse situations are hard for everybody, even if you think you
can, even if you have confidence or experience.

The phycologists say that difficult situations can make you stronger emotionally or even
physically, but this, do not make you stronger in the way everybody says, from my point of
view, some people take it as a curse mark, they close to others, they minimize problems of
other people because they think that their problems are not important, they despise other
people because they think they have or had an easy life. Others take them proudly as a
survivor mark, they develop an ability to see the life in positive ways, they increase the
capacity of empathy, because now the know how it feels to be in that situation, and
develops a strange need, to help the others when they are facing problems.

You just can’t say that adverse times are going to create strong individuals, because is not,
just because you are trying to predict something, doesn’t mean is going to happen.
Everyone is going to take the situation as they seem to be better.

It is possible to stay strong or maintaining your posture, but there will be many times
you will wobble.
In my conclusion, adverse times not will always make strong individuals, they can
break people’s spirit, and now I know that is okay to not be capable of facing some
situations, I don’t need to feel bad if others can, everybody is different in the way of
facing adverse situations.
