Hmmm...

“What kills you not, makes you stronger”

Ah, my favorite quote. Its pretty straightforward, basically any negative experience that does not cause one’s death makes one stronger. By negative experience I refer to injuries more mental than physical, because due to some inexplicable twist of fate, I have not yet been seriously injured physically, and hence have no right to talk about it. But mental agony I have been through, and every time that I have lived through it, I have come out a stronger and if possible bigger person. When one gets injured for the first time, it really hurts. You may spend days and nights crying just because someone at school made fun of you. But once you get used to being made fun of, it no longer hurts anymore, because you have been through it once, and know that it isn’t going to kill you.

Sometimes we are so scared of going into a potentially hazardous situation that we do not dare to venture into it. But this is the worst possible thing to do, you see if you go into such a situation, there are only two possible outcomes, 1.You get killed, which is good, don’t have to worry about this sad world anymore. 2. You live through it, and come out stronger, which is also good. So both these options are ‘win’ situations. Hence the only way to lose, is not to attempt something, just because you are afraid it will hurt.

Hey that’s what out elders have been telling us all through our lives, that means I am getting really mature, or I am going nuts. Well, that’s it for this time, hope I have something to write about soon.

Adieus.
