How many times had he enjoyed the view? For year's he had lived here and watched out of the window without seeing. This time was different. He studied it for a long time and knew this was it. There was no reason to hesitate any longer.
Hesitation had changed his life into what he became. No one said it but he knew what they thought 'loser'. If people say that long enough you start believing it and act like one. If you act like one you show they are right.

Loser...
For sure he became one although he never intended to. Studying, finishing school even university, and finding a good job never became an issue. It was what happened after that, once he started working and... lost his job.
'Loser' was the word printed on his forehead. Everyone could read it and avoided him. If you have no money you don't count and live in an area with other losers. All underdogs, people who no longer counted. Society wanted to get rid of them and so did the government. Losers. Not each one of them skipped school, was a hustler, scammer, a complete idiot joining a gang and slices throats. Not each one of them was illiterate, too lazy to search for a job and work.

Losers...
He stood on the ridge and jumped. As his body hit the road no one stopped and felt pity. It was just another loser, a quitter, who jumped and gave up instead of enjoying his great life. Some shrugged, others hastily passed by. Later the cleaners would scratch him off the road and everything would be back to normal again.

The brutal reality that really drives people to their deaths and i don't know but sometimes the loser title could still be removed if they tried enough

Of course the loser title can be removed. Especially if you are willing to change. It's in your own hands. Delete negativity and believe in yourself. No one needs family, friends to drag them down and make them feel miserable. Miserable you can be alone too.

Merry Christmas dear 💕🍀

Merry Christmas to you too!

And i agree. You can be miserable alone but just because you're a loser, doesn't mean you've done nothing worthwhile in life. If uou feel that way then that's the best time to change yourself

Thank you.

I guess low-selfesteem is part of the feeling and with that it's hard to change. One needs support, positive energy.

The one he gets is probably the wrong kind of esteem, i guess? Something that would help

I don't think he receives any support and if so he no longer saw it because the picture of "loser" is all in his head.
