Courage.. Yes, it seems easy to understand what it is, but often in real life, many people fail to take out their courage, to face difficulties/challenges. Well, life is like a roller coaster, there are ups and downs. When you're climbing high, you'll feel as if the entire world is under controlled, you feel safe, and have more confident in whatever tasks that you do. But when you suddenly plunge from the peak to the bottom, the real challenges finally arise. That's the time, the moment, where you feel that you're at your weakest point.
I could say that most people, at that point of time, mentally and emotionally are unstable. Consumed by your own fear of losing everything that you have/ feeling ashamed/ felt that every passerby sees you as a joker etc etc. All these negative thoughts/feelings will tends to take over ones mind, and eventually leads a person to feel as if it's the end of his/her world.
Well, my thought on this kind of situation is, a person, whether he/she is truely strong mentally and emotionally, is judged by the period taken for the recovery process. How fast he/she could get over the sad/self-blaming period, and bounce back into fighting to change their life. People whom stands up on their on feet in a shortest period of time, and willing to accept critics and challenges from bottom up all over again, are those that having and truly understands what is the meaning of COURAGE.
This word lets me think over and over again, which I thought I might as well blog and share my voice to the world. So what do you readers think?
Ahh~ I could say that, my previous relationship allows me to experience the downside of it, during the breakup. Yes, I don't deny that I've always thought this relationship will last forever, although it didn't went as I wished it would, but I never regretted it for happening.. The feeling of being the person, who wants a breakup, and the feeling to be the person that wanted the relationship to continue, is very different indeed. Weeks has passed and the clock still ticking away, it's funny to still be able to see things with his shadows. However, I'm slowly releasing my tightly closed fist, that has always been clinging onto this relationship.....
I hope for the best for both of us, and to the rest of the world. No matter what hardship that you're going through, family and friends, will always be the best refuge. Be positive, and get back up fighting~!!
~L.I.S.T.E.N~ As words spoken are not merely words... They have in-depth meanings within it..

ReplyDeletethx!! long time no see ler~ u oso jiayou o!!
ReplyDeletenice post~ i like it.
ReplyDeletei'm going downhill too at the moment.
i do think that it takes more than just courage to face those challenges. there also has to be acceptance and understanding. accept that it has happened and move on. understand the situation and not go round in circles.
no one is to be blamed. sad, but true, that we can't always get what we want in life. but is it a sign to give up? then again, things can't be forced, as they'll lose their true meaning...
as always, talking is easier than doing it...
Courage is kind of power that make you brave to do something which will exposed yourself to a circumstance that might harm.
ReplyDeleteTo protest the land, a brave soldier put its live on risk to flight against the invader. Without the existence of courage, a soldier will become a cowardly surrender because fear to losing his live.
People fail to take out their courage, is because they fear to be hurt or lose something.
Some people once they suffer from a fell, they refuse to stand up again, because they’re too scared to get hurt again.
Without the courage to facing the possibility of being hurt or lost, our ability will be killed, our potential will be buried.

ReplyDeleteyeap, agree to what you said. Fear is a major blockage in everyone to face challenges. And many opportunities might just slipped away even if it's already by your fingertips.
People who fell and stand back up, learned from past events, will then be more matured.
thx for your comment! ^^

ReplyDeleteEh, didn't saw your comment earlier.. haha~ probably my internet got a little problem. Glad you like it~
And yea, in facing difficulties, steps to be taken does depends on the situation to make a decision whether or not to hold on to a certain thing, or to let go. Always think logically before making any decisions so that one won't make a move that bring negative impact onto him/herself and to the love ones.
Indeed it's very hard to do than to say.. but at least, bring up the courage and give a shot! =)
