When you are thrown into the big unknown, you have no expectations whatsoever. It is during this time in which anything good that happens be thought of as a blessing, and anything bad would be taken in your stride, almost unnoticed.

However, when you allow yourself to be thrown into a situation you have expectations. The danger is having too low of an expectation, because while it may seem less than effortless to achieve them, if you do not achieve it the effects are disasterous. You can still go lower after hitting the ground.





To say that hope is lost, is unfortunate. Yet, we know that often, we don't mean what we say, so making such a statement leaves hardly any mark. To have no hope is devastating, but it's sometimes not as bad as it seems. Afterall, the phrase 'mind over matter' is there for a reason. But to believe that all hope is lost, kills. To feel empty is worse than to feel a hundred times of pain. To be void leaves you with no emotions, no thoughts, no soul. It is beyond depression. It is to be absolutely vacant, drained, blank.













They were all moments to remember.
Those moments shared,
The laughter, smiles, pure bliss,
That truly mattered.
That we fortunately got.

To have had such an experience,
To forge such strong friendship,
In too short a time,
We were all blessed.

But now, the track splits.
And more ties will be shared,
With different sets of people,
In various lengths of time.

So I wish you well,
These years to come,
Knowing that you will survive this,
And that you’d have a memorable time.

For now, it’s time for you to go.
Enjoy.

And if ever there is a need
To remember the past,
You’ll know where to look.
