They say, that silence is the loudest scream. The final scream for life before a person too ill dies, the final scream for someone you love when they have to leave. The loudest cries, are not expressed by the mouth, but by the heart. To know someone truly, don’t look at their lips. Look at their eyes, for it is the window to their soul. And no matter how hard you can try, you can’t hide the feelings from your eyes. It just stays there, waiting for someone to come along and notice it.
I’ve always thought that someday, things will change for the better. And in some ways or another, it has. Sometimes we are too focused on the flaws that haven’t changed, that we tend to overlook and forget to be thankful to the things that have changed for the better. I’m sorry if I always seem to be unappreciative, I’m sorry if my wants are always seemingly insatiable. But I think, that is only humanly. To be a human, is to have your own wants, and to always want to have it fulfilled. To be a human, is to sometimes be selfish to fight for what is important to you. But we don’t always succeed. Sometimes, people will bring you down, but you get right back up just because your dreams are still alive. Sometimes, you suffer a big blow to your mental health but at the end of the day, we have to keep going. We have to keep going, because we have to trust that one day the storm will end. Life is built on trust, nothing is a instant two-way deal. More often than not, you’ll find yourself sacrificing so much, putting in so much hard work for something you’re not even sure of. Then why are you doing it? Life is built upon faith, and though it might not always stand, at the same time, it will not always fall. There’s always two sides to something, and maybe if you try hard enough, failure isn’t such a bad thing after all. The greatest people in life go through the most failures. They just never let it get to them personally.
Until now, we should have come to realize that the greatest demons are ourselves, and that no one should control your emotions except you allow them to. They can shake you, break you, but at the end of the day they make you into a stronger person. Or at least, that’s what I’ve always felt to be true, and that’s one thing I’ll always hold true to my heart, that I believe what I do will not go to waste, that regardless of studies, CCA or whatever else I might be involved in, that whatever may happen, I refuse to let it hit me personally, and that I keep believing that one day it will all pay off. And I believe that if you do it well enough, God will reward you for your efforts. Even though they say that life is not fair, it still is, to a certain extent. Life is not a wish-granting machine.
And when success does hit you, never get proud. At the end of the day, pride is one that kills it all.
