When you are facing difficult challenges in life, how do you handle them?

We all have our own ways of dealing with difficult situations in life- how do you deal with stuff that is beyond your control- like illness or loss?

To be honest, I don’t know how to face difficult challenges in life other than face it head-on and hope that it will pass. However, in some difficult situations, I think it’s better to just slow down and take the situation one small step at a time or take it one day at a time. I think in moments like these, it’s better to slow down, breathe, take in the situation, and assess it because if we rush through a difficult situation, most of the time, we’ll end up regret any decision we may have made along the way.

Maybe I just haven’t faced a situation that dire enough that I cannot take my own advice but if there is one thing no one in this world can control, it’s time. No matter how bad the situation is, time still marches on and so must we, even if we do it one step at a time.
