We are a fighter, no doubt about it. We continue to fight for want we want and want makes us happy.

Did you ever asked yourself, until when you will fight when you know that things aren't good anymore?

There comes a point in our life that we realize that whatever we do, things aren't going our way. What we are chasing are no longer worth it. We are chasing it because it meant alot to us and that's what makes us happy.

In this long battle, we need to realize that there is a thin line between determination and desperation.

Determination is what keeps us pushing to what we want. It also makes sure we are evaluating the worth and relevance of the goals we are chasing. While desperation makes us blind. It turns us into a kids who throw tantrums and won't accept the reality that not everything we want will be handed over to us.

Life is somethings act as one of those strict parents that will punish us if we don't stop throwing tantrums. In the end, we end up being hurt. So before we end up getting more hurt because of our desperation, we must find the strength to give up.

We can't hide the reality that some people will come and judge us. Being called as a coward, a failure and someone who easily give up on their dreams. We shouldn't mind them, cause we know that those people don't know our struggle. Their are people who can support us because they know that we fight long enough.

Courage lies on giving up sometimes. It takes a lot of courage to accept that no matter how long we tried to get want we want, if it is not meant for us, it's not.

We should not let it sucked our life just because we are afraid to be judge.

We know that it is not easy. Our minds will be filled with regrets once we give up. Regrets follows sadness. It sucked up our energy and it may fall us into depression. And to avoid it, here are things we must do.

  • Wake up in the morning and say a little prayer and start our day with a positive note.

  • Appreciate the small blessings that happened in our life.

  • Meet up with our family and friends and accept their help to find the smile we lost.

  • Do things we never do. Entertain ourself. Let us think that this is the time to appreciate and discover ourself.

Slowly, we will heal and make peace with our past. Slowly, we find ourself genuinely happy again. Giving up is done, but moving on is another story.

Thanks for reading!

I agree hehe. It's not easy to give up on something that you used to fight for but it's worth it when you let go of things that hurts you. Hehe
