are what you seek in everything that happened in your life. Sometimes you find it extremely difficult to find meanings in a certain series of unfortunate events. Don’t beat yourself up to understand them. They will begin to dawn on you sooner or later. It may take a while. You can take your time. But, in the process, there are certain things that you should remember.
You should remember that you can’t control everything and you can only control your own mind and feelings. You have the power to not let anything or anyone makes you feel that you are insignificant and worthless (no matter how hard it is to think otherwise given the situation). Cause you know you aren’t. You know you gave it all. You know you were serious about what you did. But if that’s not enough, just don’t beat yourself up. Let alone feel sorry for yourself. Not only it’s stupid, but it’s also unproductive.
You should also remember that you always ALWAYS have choices (anyone who said otherwise should really have a reality check). But, as far as choices go, be sure that it is not an emotional decision that you wish to pursue. Just think it through. And once you have made the choice to move on, then you have to swallow that pill no matter how bitter it may taste. The past is past. It is done. It is unchangeable. Move on. Consider this a clean slate. Leave the old luggage behind and start to look for ways that will help you improve yourself. Work smarter. Redeem yourself.
This is not a note about anguish. This is not a note about exasperation. Cause as far as anguish and despair go, you recall what Douglas MacArthur once said “You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt; as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fear; as young as your hope, as old as your despair”. This is you being strong. This is you being smart. This is you being positive for you’ve chosen to be young and free. This is how you grow. So therefore you don’t give up.
I won’t give up.
