Maybe Life Isn't As Bad As You Think It Is

We all think that life is a challenge. An RP game that we are all a part of. We go through things that we think are our last challenge because we're just gonna pause it right there and not even think of a way to get over it. And now you're stuck at looking at a flat wall, and it's staring back at you.

A tough life, that's what we all have. We have problems that we think will never arrive at our doorstep, but it did. When something goes wrong, we think that we rode the wrong train and there's no turning back. But maybe that's just how it's supposed to be. We've focused enough on the normal things that we didn't even wonder what's behind a mountain. We think that we're safe if we do things normally, and by doing things the normal way, there's nothing that can waver the norms.

When we look at people smiling and laughing, we wish that our life will turn out to be like theirs, and we're not even thinking that maybe they have their own problems, too, but there they are, laughing like nothing can stop them. Maybe it should be the same for us. We think that we can't escape a problem but we're actually the ones dragging ourselves down. Why can't we be the person that we saw laughing the other day? That's because you're stopping yourself. You can laugh too if you're having a good time, right? Why can't we forget about our problems for a while? Why do we keep on focusing on the negatives? Why are we forcing ourselves too much? Why do we want ourselves to feel pain? Maybe because you think that you're done for. Maybe because you think that your life is a living hell. Maybe because you feel hopeless. Why do you? Because you convinced yourself that you are.

The positive side, that's the most common thing that people would want you to look at, and maybe you should. Maybe one day you'll say that "Maybe my life isn't as bad as you think it is" and maybe it isn't because if you look back at the challenges that you have encountered and solved before, you realized that there you are. You are alive. You have survived.

Maybe life isn't all about challenges. Maybe life is a blank book. Maybe life has no meaning unless you put the meaning into it.

Maybe living your life is your only mission. Huge waves might come and go but that won't stop you to discover new oceans. Live.

Take Them Away From Suicide

I know most of us have thought about this act. Suicide. What makes us think about this?  Yes. Problems, problems, problems. We all think that dying is the gateway to solving whatever life throws at us. No existence, no problem! NO more bullying, no more stress. You're free! But... What do we gain from being dead? We'll have nothing to do but look at all these people breathing, talking, eating, running, walking, LIVING. Doing all the things that you can do no more.  I don't know what it feels like to be dead (because I still get to post these stuffs) but look at it this way... You're dead. You're a ghost. You see your family weeping over you because you killed yourself. You wanted to hug them and tell them that you're gonna be okay, but you cant, and you're not even close to being okay. You look to your left and you see your classmates, friends, and teachers whom you thought will never go to your funeral, but you see them th...

If You Have Thoughts About Suicide (Like Me)

If you have been crying in your room all night wishing to end everything, If you have been waking up thinking if you can make it through today, If your thoughts are louder than the sound of your friends pounding and endlessly knocking on your door begging you to open up, If you have ever faked your smiles and your "i'm okay's" so you don't end up crying while telling someone how you really feel, If you have ever felt like a burden to anyone that you think the best way is to disappear, and If you've ever felt too much that you need to feel something burning on your skin to remind you that you are alive, you are not alone. I thought I was going to be okay. I was healing. I was meeting with my psychiatrist once every month. I buy my medicines every week and take them regularly and on time. I was on track. I was going to be okay. Or so I thought. My family does not understand "depression" and "anxiety". They don't understand w...
