Your post really touched me, right now I'm tired and sad because my family, especially my single mum is going through some really tough times and I feel helpless because I can't do anything. Or I think I can't. I actually joined steemit with the hope that I could make things change for us, but it doesn't seem that things are going to be better, and many times I feel like I'm about to throw in the towel.
But, posts like yours and those of @ogochukwu really help me. They tell me things take time and patience, two things I seen to be lacking now, and that Steemit can be home, a sanctuary. I am trying to make it that, it is tough going but I'll try.
Thank you again

In addition to what @stellabelle said; you can't win when you are tired and sad, and you need to have an understanding that there is no helpless or hopeless situations, there are only people who have grown helpless and hopeless about their situations. Remember the solution is not in confusion but on the other side of confusion.
Please keep the hope and faith alive because even the dead still have hope.
Thank you very much, I'll keep that in mind.

you must stretch your mind a bit and come up with ways to make change. Right now your emotions have taken over and cloud your thinking. I am glad you feel a sense of hope though.
I agree. It's hard stretching the mind when there are many cases of failures around you I always thought getting good grades at school would mean a cushy job and a better life, but things in my country at getting harder, so many qualified people, so few jobs. So I'm trying other things, improving my writing and stuff.
I'll look for the little things, the good things, and I'll be happy.
