Ill make this short. Or maybe not, depends.
My life was taken away from me when I lost my best friends to a very unfortunate circumstance. Since then I’ve become who I am now, a person lacking the ability to maintain faith in what I was raised in. This is mostly due to not trusting people because we all make mistakes, but I have learned to forgive and forget.
Its times like these that I can barely get a grip on my own reality. Reality doesn’t seem real to me but what I do and how I do it does. This is specifically to working extremely hard and long hours everyday for the past 14 years. I over compensated, contributing to my success in High School, College and Career.
Some may say this good, others may say this is sad. I don’t care about the opinions of those “some”. What I do care about is having the strength to carry on, despite the realities, disappointments, and errors I have made and those around me have made.
Thats really it. There are no heroes or villains, only people. These people affect us and change who we are, even when we don’t want to change. So, have the strength to carry on and do what is necessary for you to become yourself - because you are the only one who can ever surpass the trials and tribulations.
