The difficult path

It is hard to take a stand. Especially when you must do so alone. Those around will not cheer your courage, they will accuse you of stubbornness.

People desire to do things the easy way. But it is determination that makes a champion. Push as hard as you can, and be prepared to push some more.

This difficult path keeps getting rougher. The higher you climb, the more they will try to knock you down. Give in for an instant, and they could win.

Do not cower in the face of their fury. They will sense weakness and then attack. Such do not spare the ones they loathe, and even less those they love.

Cruelty is the only thing that gains their respect. But it ends in the defacing of oneself. What good is their esteem, when it comes at such a high cost?

These shall always want and be found wanting. For there is a gaping hole deep inside. Expect nothing from them and you will not be disappointed.

  1. Be strong and don't let them hurt you? Eh? You do realize some of these people are quite capable of hurting you very badly. Pick your damn battles, Don! If you're weak, that's okay! Nothing wrong with it. Just find what you're good at and make the world a better place! As for that gaping hole, you must not think so lightly of the great forces of darkness acting against you. They are align with forces that could destroy the world thrice over. You have nothing over them by merely standing up to them. Take my advice. Work with your friends and make the world a better place. Little acts of kindness. And I swear, if you go after me for not understanding you, you are WAY off base.

    1. Oh, they can be quite hurtful. It is that gaping hole within them that threatens to consume all. But in the end, they are and will have nothing.

  2. Our path may be difficult but it does not mean we have to walk it alone, with love in our heart we can gather the strength to carry on.

    1. Sometimes, it is hard to summon the strength to keep going. Everything appears to be lost. But appearances can be deceiving.
