We've all experienced things that have shaped us, made us who we are and changed our entire perspective in life. We've been faced with situations that have made us want to give up, but in the end, we keep going.

Sometimes it seems like nothing's happening. It seems as if we keep trying our best, but we aren't moving forward. We may choose to do things first. We don't set our priorities straight even if we should. Never give up just  because of a certain event. It may seem like the end of the world, but guess what? It's not.

The world has a nasty habit of proving us wrong. So let's try to turn that around. If you feel like giving up, try to find someone who actually cares. Believe me, there are a lot. You just have to find the right ones. Find the person who will accept and care about you. Find people who will see your worth as a person.

A very good friend of mine once told me, "May halaga ka naman eh, maybe you and other people don't see it yet." Surround yourself with people who care about you. Surround yourself with family and friends. But don't forget to love yourself as well. See your worth as a person. You can't rely on other people for everything. If you want something, then do something about it. Start with yourself and don't give up. Be weird, be free. Be who YOU are. Your past doesn't define who you are, you do.
