Don’t depend on love; it’s just encouragement.
I’ve given up everything, but…
The adult world is not easy. If I continue with my ego, can I achieve more than I have today? I know everything is designed; there are no “ifs” in this world. Take it or leave it, every choice has consequences, whether they’re good or bad for you or others.
After several years, I returned to my country instead of staying in a stable one. I turned down many offers to become a professional engineer and lecturer at a good university in a good country. Those offers are a dream for many people, a path to quick wealth and good health. However, I chose to go back to see my country and my old love.
I know love is magical. I still believe in it. But love can be both good and bad. I’ve dreamt of many happy moments like those in Korean or at least Chinese dramas, which always have a happy ending with my old love. I trust and am confident about that. But reality is sometimes beyond our control.
In the adult world, the more you smile, the more sadness you often hide in your heart. I know there’s no need to regret anything because this is life. Just enjoy it, and I hope it gets better.
Don’t depend on love; it’s just encouragement. Sometimes it’s sweet, and sometimes it’s bitter. Like a box of chocolates, you can’t predict what you’ll get.
Tired? Sad? Frustrated? These are just negative words. In my dictionary, they don’t exist. I hope to withstand the pain and stress. I believe that if anyone can be happy, I can be happy too, insha’Allah.
Whatever it takes, I still believe there will be a happy ending. Life is short; I hope it is filled with good words and good moments with someone who deserves it.
I hope to be happy again someday, and to always be happy, no matter what. I know I can’t buy happiness, but at least I can create it again with you. Because you aren’t alone. You still have God, Allah, who is always watching and helping you. Jiayou!
