The Tale of Hope and Optimism

I’ve given up.

There is no point in hope and optimism.

There is only so much of disappointment a person can take.

2010 was a rough year for me. I guess I used up all my optimism and positivity there.

This was like the last straw.

Everyone has their own limit.

There is only so much of shots you can take before you fall down.

Nothing is ever enough.

They say follow your passion, pour your heart into it, and make sacrifices.

That is what I did.

The fruit of my labour you ask?

Is nothing what I expected.

Dreams, hope and optimism are for fools.

I was a fool.

There is reality.

Period.

Nothing more.

The pain and frustration is something a few will understand. You need to feel it to know it.

Those who don’t, they will never know. But they talk. Oh Yes, they talk. A LOT.

It still hurts thinking about it.

Injustice.

Nothing you can do about it.

Just live with it.

Not something I like.

Maybe I was wrong to think what I thought.

perhaps i'm in no position 2 say this at all.. n i hv no idea what u're going thru. but i know how it feels like when u've been let down by hope. jz wanted u 2 know that when everyth lets u down.. there're always still ppl whom u can turn 2. they might not understand hat u're going thru.. they might not be able to feel what u're feeling.. but it's better to have someone listen to you sob than to cry alone? no? =) *hugs*
