Today it’s all about the party but naaaaah! Don’t grab your popcorn or drink because we are not throwing a party, rather we are ending the Pity Party.

What exactly is a Pity Party? It’s that instance of indulging in self-pity or eliciting pity from other people. Wait! Hold on a minute, I am not saying we will not sympathize or empathize when people are faced with painful experiences, of course we will.

By all means we should allow ourselves go through the natural process of healing and recovery and it’s also perfectly healthy for people to sympathize and empathize with us. When we refuse to come out of the pain and rather choose to remain in it, continuously indulging in self pity and eliciting pity from others, then it becomes terribly detrimental to our health and mental stability.

I have had to recently fight the fiercest of life's battles and through it, I learnt first hand the detriments of self-pity.
