>>51130075Thank you, I hope so too! =w=
>>51130251I'm sorry to hear than, bud... I'm glad that it's comforting but being real with you, it is hard to be that way too. My positivity isn't always there, and there are days I feel the strain of obligations, physical tiredness, mental stress, crabby people and uncontrollable circumstances trying to batter me down, my old pessimism cropping up. But I always think back about what it means to lead a good life. My father told me, a long, long time ago and reminds me from time to time: "Nothing good in life comes easy."
When I reflect on that simple phrase and the words of great men like Marcus Aurelius in his meditations, the philosophy of Nietzsche and others such as stoic lessons from Musashi, or even worlds from well written characters like Iroh from Avatar
Sometimes life is like this dark tunnel. You can't always see the light at the end of the tunnel, but if you just keep moving... you will come to a better place., or the struggle of living through all the pain like Guts in Berserk, I realize there's no greater thing a man can do than to shoulder it and press forward, seeking their own meaning, their own power, their own happiness. God knows your heart, and your soul, He knows your pains, your desires, but He gives every man the free will to make their own path. All you need to do is walk it with all your conviction and good things will come, while the bad things harden your spirit. Life will do everything to batter you down, but it will also shower you with blessings if you keep fighting for it. Secure in that belief, I can keep fighting for my happiness, and to make as many people as I can on my journey happy as well. I hope things will get better for you! Keep fighting, always!
