ever had the feeling of being alone? that the world has turned its back against you? does it even have a back? --no, just kidding. but seriously, ever felf that you've been put into a forest of darkness? of hatred? of unwantedness?

sometimes, you just can't blame the world for the things that are happening around you. even if it were a great feeling of joy, a tremendous sadness, or a pierce in the heart --you just can't blame them. if it's meant to happen, then it will happen.

sometimes, it's simply inevitable for people (by people i mean anybody--you're friends, family, relatvies, etc.) to see flaws in you. nobody is perfect. don't blame youreself. just admit your mistakes. however, if ever this happens, if ever you do belong to that group of people who saw that flaw in somebody, i suggest that you verify the "facts" that you've stated to arrive to that conclusion you've got. i'm not saying that what you had concluded was wrong; what i'm saying here is to make sure they're true. you'll never know what the truth is unless you dig deeper into it. like in debating, it's not enough to deal with premises. you have to substantiate with enough proof to make your statements reasonable and reliable. otherwise, your arguments are just crap.

with that, then again, sometimes you get thrown into the forest which i've stated earlier. nobody wants you. nobody talks to you. nobody loves you. the hard part on this is to find the light and work your way out. i know it's very difficult, esp. when there's no one to guide you. i know it's very sad, esp. when there's no one to comfort you. i know it's very hurting, esp. when there's no one to love you.

being in that forest really can give you the creeps. you'll never know what's lurking around, what evil it may have to offer, and what will happen to you. a lot of question may pop in you're mind --worst is, "will i die?"

but on the contrary, life is not that unfair after all. when there's darkness, there's light. when there's sadness, there's joy. when there's hurt, there's love.

in that forest, you'll find people who are willing to be with you. in that span of time, you'll just find out that there are people who are willing to enter that forest and be there to guide you on your way out. they are there to comfort you. they are there to love you.

and those people are not your boyfriends or girlfriends. well maybe yes. but no other people can understand you as much as your friends do. it's a different understading to that of your family and relatives.

that is why i just can't imagine a life without you--my friends. will i be stranded in that forest, weeping in a spot under a dark, old, and almost dead tree?
