Broken promises, losing direction in life and wasted hard work.... All these things happened in just one day. Someone who dearest to me, who knows all my secrets left me... Forever... All my promises I had with that person were broken.. My pillar of strength was gone.. Everything I did until then were for nothing..
That person encouraged me to study and I felt that I have to remember this person for eternity.Just a few days before my exam, that person passed away.That time , I was so lost as it was my first time having somebody so close to me died. I was so down and I could not focus studying, sports and even during exam period. I had bad grades because of that incident.
My friends told me cheer up and forget about but I just cant do it. I would wake up in the middle of the night because I had a dream about that person and cant fall back asleep. One day, one of my friends approach to me and I told her my problems. She was kind enough to help me get back up on my feet and continue to encourage me in the things I do.
Then, I realised. Life is not a journey where you can walk alone. Challenges will come and hit you down. You might think you are able to go through it but when you try to face the challenge, you will realise it is not easy at all. Emotions tend to overwhelm and mess up your decision. At eh time like this, you will feel hopeless and wallow in despair. During time like this, try to request help from others. There will be kind sould who will come your way and give you hope and the help you need.
I have come to understand one thing in life: " the lowest point of life brings you back to the peak". People need to go through the highs and lows in life in order to become better. To me, someone who can be calm and think logically all the time and understand the emotions of others by showing empathy. Lessons in life are valuable but you cant get them with with or from books and schools. You learn it from experience.
