Why Giving Up Should Never Be An Option

I've always said to myself, "every bad situation has its reason" and that no matter how hard it is to understand, I know God has a better plan.

When I first learned that I was different from the rest of the kids, I was a little bit upset. I didn't question my parents why I was born this way, though, not even to God. Although sometimes I'd imagine myself in a different situation where everything about me was normal. I guess that's normal, right?

If there's one thing I've learned in the past that is to NEVER give up. Although I tried to master how to end my life at the age of 8 or 9, my fear of being rejected in heaven's gate for committing one of the worst sins of all has given me the strength to hold on no matter what. Moreover, I am so grateful for the fear of committing that sin because that is the reason why I am still alive and striving now.

Why you shouldn't give up?

There are so many reasons why people should never give up in life. I know life is hard and for some, their life is even harder than most of us. However, I believe that there are still more good reasons to stay alive (in my opinion).

If you give up now, how will you know that there could be a better happy ending for you? That there is hope waiting for you at the end of the road. You know, stuff like that.

The point is if you choose to give up now, everything ends right there. Whereas if you choose to keep going, there could be more than you could imagine. Think about your family and friends. Think about your hopes and dreams you want to achieve. Think about God. Think about the upcoming consequences.

I was once in a crisis before. At the age of 8, I tried to learn several ways to end my life. I was so desperate to end my story back then coz I thought my life was useless. That I was useless.

Imagine if I gave up during those days, my death would be a total waste. How would I know that I could make a living out of my dramatic experience? That I could make tons of friends without even leaving my house. Lol. That I could earn enough without stressing myself. That I could be a good furmom or a loving tita to my nieces and nephews if I quit life. That Bitcoin cash could also change my life.

If I ended my life before, I wouldn't experience all of these. You see, life is full of shit, and that's what life makes extra special coz it's full of challenges and great surprises. It's full of both good stuff and bad. And if you end your life now, you won't experience any of these.

Don't give up just because you're poor. There are many ways you could do to change your status. Maybe not for the best but at least for the better.

Don't give up just because you feel like you're ugly, and that you don't belong here, or that your existence is a mistake. Think about those who are physically incapable of almost anything and yet, they choose to live life every day despite the everyday struggles and bullies they have to endure.

Don't give up just because you feel unwanted or unloved. Self-love is the key. When you start loving and accepting yourself, your flaws, and everything in between, nothing (no one) can ever make you feel worthless ever again.

Don't give up just because you feel like everything you do never go well as anticipated. Remember, that's God's one way of saying, "there's something far greater for you."

Don't give up just because you have tons of problems. Problems are always there not to torture or punish us, but they exist to help us grow. They are meant to happen for a reason.

Don't give up because you're family will be devastated. You're gonna break tons of hearts, too. Yes, they will recover eventually, but it will never be the same again.

Don't give up because life is so beautiful, and that there is always hope in everything. As they say, "there's always a rainbow after a storm." So your problems and worries today, if you use them as a tool to strive harder, then these could be your ticket for a better future.

Don't give up. Life is hard but never give up. Instead, take a break. Clear your head. Pray often. Ask for HIS guidance. Talk to a family, a friend, or a total stranger online. Share your worries, your struggles, and your problems. Don't always keep it to yourself. Admit that you're not always strong. Evaluate yourself, your actions, your strategies. Make another plan. Enhance your strategies. Do it slowly with fewer expectations. Find a hobby. Make yourself busy. Own a pet. Make more friends. Go out and explore the world. Stay away from the things and people that could stress you out. Avoid social media. Read books or start writing your story. Last but not the least, find a way to be happy.

And one day, you will look back and say, "I've had the worst days of my life, but I managed to stay alive and happy at the same time." So yeah, whatever you're feeling or experiencing right now, stay strong, fam!
