Life

Life 

Sometime I feel as if the weight of the world is on my shoulders. I cry for people I do not 
know, I pray for friends who could careless about me. Sometimes I give my last dollar to 
someone who feels like their need is greater. But what do these people really think about 
me? I try to be the best friend, the best person I can be to them. By supported them and 
encouraging them to be better. I go out of my way to help in any way I can. Because I can 
see them having a better life. I can see them happy, I can see them getting what they 
desire. Even when I know that this person won’t remember what I did for them, how I stood 
by them. I’m always left wishing I could have done more or given more or said the right 
words.

              Nothing is as it seem, we are always let down in all kind of ways by our jobs, by 
our friends, by our love ones and by the people we believe in the most. How do we over 
come that? The feeling that your world has fallen apart, that the strength that we needed 
from this person isn’t as strong as we believed it was. How do we get our footing back? We 
learn to see them in a new light, illusion are so how to over come. My disillusions in people 
hold me back all the time.

        The world isn’t a very nice place to start off with and I just feel that if we try a little 
harder to remember that no one has to do anything for us. No one has to be kind to us; no 
one has to waste their time with us. No one has to call us and care if we are doing ok. That is 
why we need to see better, listen longer and always say thank you from our heart. With a 
smile on our face and love in our hearts we can change our faith. We can turn a bad day into 
a good day, a failure into a success and a mistake in to a blessing.
