Despair, a challenge in life
Life seriously rocks. And I do not mean that kind of super, electric guitar punked-up rock rock. I meant, life, it just sways and stumbles at will. At every corner of your walk in life, there is certainly a wall that hits you hard in the face, knocking out a few teeth as it pummels its unforgiving blows onto you. Maybe that's what makes our lives more interesting as we move on, or for most of us, maybe not!
However interesting as it might get, still our life remains in debt of a set-back waiting to come. How we are going to stand up to that is mainly based on how we react to that dilemma faced. For most people, including myself, they plunged into a black-hole of sorrow and despair, dissapointment to be exact. And then comes the latest trend ~~ emo-ing. While some people think of it as an act of protestantism, many take it as an act to express how they really feel using their facial muscles and nerves (sorry for the over medical terms). As much as they hate themselves, they also transfer the hatred to the people around them; AND as much as the people around them detest the way the latter acts, they themselves to plunge into the swirl of emo-ness without themselves even noticing it! Epic!
Truth is, life is just that cruel. Sometimes, you feel you are not treated fairly and you also feel your life not worth living. Yes again, life is nothing but a path carved out of blades and knifes, thorns along the way, testing the endurance of us mankind, pushing us to the utmost brink of tolerance, and destruction if the edge is surpassed. Some people tend to take advantage of a person's despair, provoking them as if things doesn't mean anything to them. And while many think despair is something one could just turn a blind eye and just walk away, well, they are right and wrong at the same time, due to the fact they could NEVER understand the person's feeling at that time. We can never predict our future, and that's what bothers us the most. Hence, most of us live our lives as a guessing game, wondering and guessing what might come next on..
But then, there is always a silver lining, hope for us to grasp on, and there is where your life starts to change for the better, provided we managed to get pass that challenging hurdle. To be honest, it really isn't easy getting through, especially that very last one. As many say, time is the very best medicine, and time will tell when you really have gotten through unscathed or otherwise. Some may even revert back what they used to be, starting all over again, while some tend to get worse as time passes, unable to uphold the magnitude of their dissapointment.
No matter how, sadness is one we humans could express, and expressed very well indeed. While many adviced others to put an end to their sorrow, not knowing that they could never understand one's feelings during that time of break-down. And while some tend to keep things at heart, some like to express their feelings. We all have our ups and downs, its just a matter of fact that how much that matter means to us, and we as naive beings, well we just react to it....

What is life but lonely nights and breaking dawns? As tough as life is, lets not forget it is a miraculously brief one, so that silver lining? Be grateful you still have one, one we called life.
