'I'm mentally strong; can deal with any situation,' says Shehnaaz Gill
Life may not be a bed of roses but some people make their way through all the trails, tribulations and setbacks through their inner strength and grit. Actress Shehnaaz Gill is one such person.
At a recent Brahmakumaris event, Shehnaaz spoke about how she is a mentally strong person and has dealt with many difficult situations in life.
Speaking about the hardships in life, she said - “Akal badaam khaane se nahin, thokar khaane se aati han.” (Wisdom doesn't come by eating almonds, it comes by facing the hardships in life.)
When asked what kept her going despite the emotional turmoil, Shehnaaz said one should be able to adapt to any situation in life and face problems head-on. She also urged people to believe in the ultimate power of God and have confidence in themselves.
Further emphasizing on gender equality, the lovely actress said, "Tumhari zindagi mein tumne accha sikhaya hoga na to tumhe sukh beta bhi de sakta hai aur beti bhi de sakti hai. Ladkiyon ko soft, delicate, innocent bolna band karo. Hum bechariyan bilkul bhi nahi hain (If you have taught them well then a boy or a girl both can give you happiness. Stop calling girls soft, delicate, innocent. We are not helpless at all)."
