Don’t Quit
Everyone has his (her) ups and downs.
Life is never perfect, and sometimes you will have to face something you’d rather escape. Some people may have been successful in his (her) careers, but he (she) may not be a winner in relationships. Usually, a human who is good in his (her) job does not do well in relationship, because they had devoted too much time on their careers that they ignored the interaction between humans. Some people may be good in studying, but he (she) may not be good at sports or other activities. No one is perfect, so is everyone’s life.
Everyday we make decisions that will change our future, everyday we have to choose between what we want and what is good for us. Sometimes we make a wrong turn on a road, or we make a decision which we will regret later, but life, doesn’t stop just because we did something wrong. We are always depressed when we regret about something, we always blame ourselves for not choosing the other option, but we don’t have to blame anyone, because we learn, from our mistakes.
Sometimes we are hurt by others. Maybe someone betrayed you, maybe your friend told someone else your secrets, maybe your loved one said something cruel and hear-breaking to you. You will certainly feel depressed, and you lose your confidence in love, in friendship, and you will need more time to recover from the blow. No matter how much time you took, no matter what had happened, you should never quit trying, you should never quit just because you don’t want to get up.
Life is cruel sometimes, it gives us the most incredible thing, but it took away its gift the next minute. We are dancing on a cloud the minute, but we dropped to the ground the next minute. If you just lye there and never get up, you will never have the chance to get your dreams come true again. If you just stay at the same spot, you will never learn how to walk, and you will never taste the glory of success, you will never know how it felt when you have achieved a goal. If you see everything as a challenge, you will find life treat you equal. It gives you challenges for you to overcome, and when you do, you have the joy of succeed, and you become more confident about yourself. Life is a challenge, just face it. You should be a strong man (woman) who faces what life has offered you, not a coward to try to hide and escape.
As I lived overseas, I learned a lot of things. I think some people may find me very much matured in my age, and some of them even think I am an adult. I had gone through a lot as I lived in an unfamiliar place, and sometimes life is just too hard to continue to live. I had thought about ending my life not once, but several times, but maybe I am just a coward who is afraid of death, or maybe I just love my life too much that I don’t want to give up that easy. I love my life, no matter how hard it is, no matter how sad it gets sometimes, no matter how cruel it treats me sometimes, I still love it. Without life, I will never get to see the beautiful and wonderful things on earth; without life, I will never get to know so many good people who care about me; without life, I will never get to know how it is to succeed in something you do, or how it felt when you accomplished something. Life, is equal. It gives you bad times in order for you to grow up, and it gives you good times when you are doing great. “Everything comes at a price”, so if you want success, or if you want joy, you have to work hard for it.
So don’t quit, no matter what happened, there are still more good times in your life than bad times. Don’t quit, for when you keeping trying, you will get your reward.
So keep going, for life, is a road that you have to walk straight forward, not stop nor walking backward. When you walked on the road of life, you will discover a lot of wonderful things.
