Life is a race, there are hardships, struggles, ups and downs. We may fall from time to time but we have to get up and continue to move on. We may face obstacles along the way but we have to do our best to pass through them and win...

Hi whengcat. So true my friend that we cannot give up, we have to dust off and try again. even if that means 3 -4 countless times as there is a life ahead and it will not stop because we decided to stop living. Therefore, it is important to reflect a bit at any past errors and try to learn from them during our hopes of a greener and happier path. Though for some it can take a lifetime but at least one can look back and reflect on how at least they tried and did not give up.

Yes, I agree with you and let me praise you for these beautiful words for what's life is all about. Yes, life is full of ups and down and in every ups we must stay meek while in every downs, we must stand tall and get up at once. Life is short but is made long by memories created while we share it with people around us.

That's right, life is full of hardships and struggles, and we have to accept the fact that it's part of life. We have to take it as a challenge to ourselves to surpass them with the best of our ability, without falling into despair. But amidst the hardships, there is a GOd who is always on call for us.

Hi whengcat, I've realized this thing about life after I overcome my depression. I realized life is too beautiful too waste and the obstacles we face everyday are just challenges for us to make us more stronger in the future! :)

You have said it so well my friend. It is true that we face different degrees of difficulties in life in almost everyday of our existence. Some would even pile up, one after another but the best we could do is face them with our heads held high and with the strongest heart. As we pass a struggle in our lives and overcome any hardships, we tend to develop a stronger character as we face each trial and solve all kinds of problems along the way. as long as we perceive each trial as a challenge for our own good, then there's nothing we should worry about. That's life.

You tell me about that my life too. I see more downs on my life than ups. I face many failures, and I am still struggling to getting up myself. I have see myself in rock bottom in life too, such as financial problem, friendship, and many more. My love life just over, and the girl I love so much just don't love me, and she moves away. I felt heartache, and many more. I knew that I can't whine too much. Anyway, that is life.
