It's really unpleasant
As if i am not struggling enough tonight, certain things had to happen to end off my day in a terrible mess of mixed emotions, anger, frustration, helplessness...and yes...again i am thinking of giving up....
I really hate it....

The Value of Time
A 23 year old male Japanese was diagnosed with a rare terminal illness whereby the skull dissolves by itself. He was the 8th person to contract this disease in the world since around year 1880. He faced his illness bravely and was a great encouragement to his friends who visited him frequently in hospital. He shared something meaningful to one of his friends which I would like to share with all readers as well.
"To comprehend the value of 1 year, ask the student who failed his University Entrance Exam.
To comprehend the value of 1 month, ask the mother who gave birth to a premature baby.
To comprehend the value of 1 week, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To comprehend the value of 1 hour, ask the pair of lovers who are waiting to meet.
To comprehend the value of 1 minute, ask the people who missed their stop on the train.
To comprehend the value of 1 second, ask the person who managed to avoid an accident in time.
To comprehend the value of one-tenth of a second, ask the person who ended up with a silver medal at the Olympics.
The hands of the clock will continue ticking. Therefore, treasure every moment you have. And treat today as the utmost gift you have."
Great words of wisdom from a person who refused to give in to death...

Believing and Existence
Ever wondered why certain things that you have never seen but heard before can exist in this world? It's because there are people who believe that they exist.
If you believe that something is true, it will be a matter of fact to you. If you do not believe in the existence of something, it will not exist in this world.
Similary, do you believe in hope? If you don't, hope does not exist in your life. If you do, your life will be filled with hope.
As for me, i have hope...

Believed
One of the scariest thing in one's life is when no one believes you. No one believes in your capabilities, no one believes in what you say. No one believes your character. No one belives you, as a person.
But i've learnt one thing. The whole world may choose not to believe you. But as long as there's one person who believes you in who you are, that person will mean the world to you.
Sometimes when we feel that the world does not trust us, or when the world doesnt acknowledge us, remember that there is that someone who will believe in you and acknowledge you for who you are. The real you. The you that only you and that someone know....
Have you found that someone? Let our lives not be a facade....let it be real...
