New beginnings
are often disguised
as painful ends.
"You're allowed to scream,
you're allowed to cry;
but you must never
allow yourself
to give up."
"Hardship
often
prepares
an ordinary
person
for an
extraordinary
destiny."
"Admit it
when you're wrong
and
shut up
when you're right
for Hubris
lends itself to imbalance.
Instead,
embody rectitude:
be honest (even if only with yourself)
and have honor
and it shall speak for itself
and needs no introduction
nor epilogue
aside from itself."
"... i have a strange feeling
that when you ask
if I want to get some food,
to 'eat out,'
i have something
entirely different
in mind, and
t'is a **** shame
if it's not on the menu-
Yet, I digress,
nevertheless,
and correct me if i'm wrong,
my answer is yes
especially if you're thinking
what i am."
With more than just 'due respect.'

Your eyes speaks much sorrow.
Your smile hides a deep sadness.
You act so normal like nothing is wrong.
How do you keep up with this harsh world?
How do you keep up to society with that melancholy behind your back?
How do you keep your temper calm?
How can you keep your focus intact?
How did you keep up with work?
All of your work seems on the right track,
like you keep things just right.

Would you share you secrets to us?

i wrote this questioning myself, many hows and now i don't know how to answer them anymore...

One cannot change
the present situation,
but
One can indeed change
what is done with it.

I reckon
this is an aspect
of Courage:
t'isn't being unafraid,
't'is being willing
and confident enough
to face the fear
and take no prisoners
