Don't look back, just go forward!

When life seems tough and shadow begins to cast over our hope and dreams, we should not forget that after every storm is another beautiful sunny day. 

We should not dread when there is a problem. It may seem hard to overcome at first but the truth is there's a solution for everything. We must stay positive, analyze the situation, approach it in a systematic way, and believe that any action is better than no action at all. 

It helps to visualize our life as a roller coaster ride. A constant, yet fast speed turbulance of both fear and excitement. A bundle of fear and excitement bound together in an inseparable fashion. The fear of what might happen if we fall and yet we are heightened by the excitement of the speed, the wind, and the uncontrollable acceleration. Ironically, we love this feeling. 

Just like our lives. It is filled with surprises. Without pain we can not appreciate happiness. Similarily, without happiness we can not feel alive. We love our family, our friends, not because they are more special than anyone else, we love them because they assure us that we are still alive, we belong, we have responsibilities; we have to stay alive to take care of them. They are our hands and feet, our heart and soul, our purpose in life. 

So when life seems tough and shadow begins to cast over our hope and dreams, we should not forget that behind every shadow is another familiar face, our friends, our love ones, and our beautiful family. 

There is no reason to fear...don't look back, just go forward!
