A friend of mine from Kazakhstan has just had to give up her job. She was working in a big restaurant in Dubai, and has now returned to Almaty to look after her mother. Over the last few years Mom’s eyesight has been deteriorating. Now she is completely blind. Manshuk has taken Mom to various hospitals and even went to see a German Ophthalmologist who was working at a clinic in Astana.
Nothing is working, and there is no cure.
I found this quote as a way to help Manshuk through these tough times.
“Things can change for the better very quickly. Don’t get discouraged because of what you’re going through right now. You do have the strength to keep on living.
Life will give you a chance to smile again. Trust that life has more in store for you than just sadness and misery.
Shift your focus from the paralyzing negative thoughts to helpful thoughts that calm you down. Let go of things you cannot control.
Remaining hopeful is a practice. Open up to the possibility of positive change.
There is a whole world waiting for you on the other side of pain.
Good things are coming.”
