Tribulation
Initially, I had intended to write an entry regarding a specific issue I am facing right now. However, I soon came to realise that it wasn't just one specific crisis in my life, but an interlinked of multiple crisises which all have their own existence and validation. I was engulfed in a series of thoughts which have been inspired from this tribulation and it has struck me that there remains one fundamental holistic identification out of all the entire mess.
In life, we are faced with several difficulties, all of which have their varying effects and lessons. However, these difficulties also become our most creative portions of our existence, for we start to pick apart our history, values and experiences, confronting our own meanings of life, which is a rare activity. We do not ever imagine that our cognitive abilities are at their best, when we have to run our thoughts with current situations which are typically too intense and emotional-draining, so we are always fighting our unconscious mental processes that try to make sense of our turbulent world. We start to then exercise our conceptions and beliefs about life and the meaning of our very existence because we wonder how life has been unjust and cruel on us, and try to adjust the imbalance to achieve a meaningful and coherent structure in our lives.
Tribulations is defined as "an experience that tests one's endurance, patience, or faith". It's also essential to our makeup as a human being, no sane human could ever live life with the fullest satisfaction or happiness, and we would be scared to meet someone who never has to encounter or deal with a personal situation that begs to question their fundamental beliefs in life. We then sought to express our own findings (either through writing, art, religion, speech and etc) which only displays the core anxiety and suffering but yet never elaborative enough to explain the intricate elements and contingencies. When despair sets in, it's when we are killing ourselves to extract a fulfilling meaning that can applease our crisis.
