Life is tough, Life is unfair, Life is hard and difficult, Life feels like a test you didn't study for. Including me know and experiencing it. Everyone, me and you, all of us want to have a good life, to be happy , We all wish to live a life what we've want to, We wish for a successful future, to have a great job, a perfect family. We wish for our true happiness, being yourself in this society but then reality is here to ruin your life. Nothing new, hardship and failures are there. As we get older, we realized that life doesn't work how we wish for it was or how it should be. You will come to your senses asking yourself “Why is this happening to me out of all people in this world? Why me?”, "Do I deserved this kind of pain?" Then some of us realized that "life is just a matter of choices with consequences including breathing".
Along the journey it gets harder, were drowning on our sea of thoughts and struggles, we can't find our way out, we felt suffocated and then you will find out that you're already tired, tired of fighting and tired of everything, hoping someday you can freely and be honest to say to everyone that " I can say I'm okay but I'm done lying, I’m tired already and I've had enough" When we were young back then, Life is easy for us right? Sleeping at noon or early in the evening and doing school homeworks are some of our little problems way back then and also getting scars and wounds from playing outside our house but now, there are scars and wounds that are deeper, painful and hurtful than anything that bleeds. As a youth like you, I realized that life works not based on what we have wanted. Even you want some things, there are things that are not meant to be for us, but it may for others. Life is like that deal with it. Sounds like its easy but it’s hard. We encountered different problems. In studying, financial problem, heartbreak, losing someone you love, struggles and exhaustion.
Now we are on this stage, on this generation where there are so many judgmental people, some of them telling you that you should act this way because for them this is the "right thing to do" and also there are some people who will try to manipulate and control you and stop you for being yourself. Life is indeed unfair, right? But you can't change that fact that life is still fair because it's unfair to everyone. Maybe life isn't about chasing what you've want to, avoiding the bruises or heartaches and staying at your comfort zone. We only live once; we need to make it worth it. And it's true that "Life is ironic it takes sadness to know what happiness is, noise to appreciate silence and absence to value presence and through darkness, comes life, through fear comes love, through pain, comes triumph".
There are many things, failure and challenges that we will encounter in the near future, as we walk through the road, we should be the one who will decide and have control to that and we're the one who will set our goals in our own life. Maybe there are some circumstances that it seems it's stops you from reaching it. Its okay friend, Maybe you will not going to make it today, sooner or later but I know you will someday. God has plan for all of us, let's be patient. Along your journey you will meet some people, someone will stay, and someone will leave. You will know who's fake and who's real but all of them are lesson to take and a memories to gain. Don't be ruled by you insecurities, sadness, and fear. Refuse to play victim. Refuse to quit. Be a survivor, be a warrior, and be you. Let's live longer. Don't just live, live happily. That's all for today, thank you for listening to me.
