something that encouraged you when you are in hardship

Days before,I was terribly tired and dipressed in my romance.I even began to doubt about my affection.Then,I made myself concentrate on reading one of my favorite books,and one sentence encouraged and re-energized me a lot.The sentence is:" The one doesn't love you in the way you want never means he/she does not love you with all he has."

Personally love and faith in God has always helped me and made me feel good. Any effort to remember, think of, praise and give thanks to God always makes a difference so long as it is genuine and from the heart.

Thanks for your attention.But I find that it's really difficult for me to get religion.I think I am too anxious and fretful to build a faith in religion.But I am really respectful to the people like you. In my opinion, the religious bilivers must be quieter, kinder and more lenient.

but what is religion? to me it is more of a man-made word/thing. you don't have to belong to a specific religion and follow any guidelines in my to believe in and acknowledge God, what is the point in doing something that feel forced upon you? I think most people may believe in and acknowledge God but are put off by people who promote and even force their own beliefs and practises on others. Believe what is in your heart, trust me God is always there for you and that in itself is very reassuring. You can feel God but may not know it, think of your conscience for example - why is it that it tends to make you realise when you are doing something wrong, what makes you realise what is god? Trust me it is God. Loving God can make you feel wonderful - no other feeling in the World cmpares, you can find true happiness.

sorry quite a few spelling mistakes there, didn't notice while typing. I meant your conscience makes you realise what is GOOD, although we don't always listen and end up ignoring it - this is the attitude of many to God too. It is quite saddening and I believe that people are the main cause as I mentioned. I think some look at religious people as extreme, weird and even mad - it is a shame, not everyone is like that.

Well, that would be Hitman a.k.a. Agent 47, whenever there's a hardship in my life, I just play Hitman: Blood Money, kill everyone in the game with Silver Ballers, W2000 Sniper, Snub Nosed, or Stiletto... just as long as I kill virtually, I'll feel much better...

I listen to some music. But I mostly think about people who were/are in worse situations than I and made it out alive and stronger. Those are the one's who encourage me :)
