Admitting to your problem brings you one step closer to recovery…
All I’ve been doing lately in conversations are mainly admitting to how I truly feel towards certain situations. I think that I have lifted a big weight from my back throughout the last few months and to understand that my problems don’t even compare to what other people have to deal with. Makes me feel so ignorant… All I have been doing is complaining and what is unfair… I wish I could help those who really need help but to find a solution from a third person perspective is too difficult and to top it all off, how can I help others if I can’t even help myself?! To store balance for others to believe in hope again is truly hard however, to believe it a little is good enough. We are all in it together so it kind of overrides my statement! So share, and appreciate one another… The opportunity is so rare and would be a shame to dismiss anyone in your life otherwise regret is where you will end up in…
Speaking of regret, I recently heard the news of my friend back in Secondary School who died. It was the most shocking news I ever had to receive… Although I have not met him in many years, I had once had the opportunity to greet him but it really is too late to. And to find out that my friend who was really close to him called me to let me know the situation, it was heartbreaking to know that this has happened, what he had to deal with and I couldn’t even do anything about it but say “I’m sorry to hear”… I’ve never had to be in that predicament so I was completely speechless but just listen to the words he spoke. I spent my evening moping around and thinking what life is truly about. To find out that we have no clue what will happen tomorrow is terrifying! We are on a path but have no clue where the end is. But the way I see to know that I can end without regrets is mainly to appreciate what I have. I am not there just yet but I will some day… I know there are loads of others who are going through more crap than I am but I just need to know that I am ok before I help anyone else… As selfish as that sounds, it is what I believe I should do!
So what can I do?! Motivate… Understand… And learn! We can never say we know everything but we grasp as much as we can.
I think it’s about time I learn to play an instrument… I want to relieve stress a bit. A new section will probably open up in this blog site so be sure to look out for it… I also believe it is time to spend more time with family. They’ve been there for me and they deserve to have a good time every now and again.
What can I say to those who have been in my life? The only words that fit correctly… Thank you…
Hi Ron…
First and foremost, I am sorry about what your friend is going through, and second, this is what life is all about. You either accept it for what it is or you run around complaining about your problems and think you have bigger issues than other people. Reality is, we all have problems, and to us individuals, we think we have more problems, but if you think about it, everyone has problems but they are just dealing with it in their own ways. I’m sure you have friends, who always look so happy and cheerful every time, but how do you know if they are truly happy? All I’m saying is, you are not the only one with problems and you should never feel like you are alone and that you can’t help yourself. There are people out there dealing with problems their own way and I’m sure in order for them to help themselves is by listening what others is going through and how they dealt with it. Just saying, I may not be able to help others, but by helping myself and others, I have learnt this by listening.
Just wake up every morning and thank god you are ‘alive’

Now that is REAL TALK right there… Well written Kirsty… I think that is my realisation towards this post… It completely distinguished the differences between my life and reality…
Either way, I think I am just going to listen to others, feed back my wording if need be… Its all I can do…
Thanks for the comment 😀
