No matter who you are, no matter where you live or what you do, life is unfair.

It tests your patience and your wits, and most certainly, your nerves.

The point is: It's okay to get knocked on your ass. 

So, let's just accept it. You're gonna get knocked on your ass, probably more than you expect, and certainly a lot more than you deserve.

But know this: resilience doesn't mean not crying, not worrying, not feeling the hurt, it means you feel all those things, you process them, and you keep doing what you're doing. 

Remember: "Just because you fall on your ass, it doesn't mean you have to stay there."

So, feel the hurt, cry, talk it out with yourself or someone else, and then keep on keeping on.

Strength doesn't mean you don't feel it. Strength is feeling it and carrying on anyway. 

You're strong, guys. 

Be well,

Tea

Thank you, Tea. Wish I was better at feeling emotions than suppressing them. Something I’m working on.

Told myself something similar during semesters. Good to hear it again ^_^

I often feel like I'm trying to climb Mount Olympus while Zeus keeps hurling thunderbolts at me. Still, I keep climbing.

And let's not kid ourselves, sometimes we need to get knocked on our asses to get some perspective on things.

I get knocked down, but I get up again, you're never gonna keep me down. I get knocked down, but I get up again, you're never gonna keep me down. Repeat ad infinitum
