Only Human

People always say 'don't give up'. Don't give up on God. Don't give up on your loved ones. Don't give up on relationships. Don't give up on your passion. Don't give up on studies. It's what people say. Don't give up.

What people forget is that, we're not strong enough. We're too fragile to hold on to every single thing that comes our way. We're not infallible and when we let ourselves clutch so tightly onto every detail, every desire, everyone... we stumble. People forget that sometimes, we can only do so much.

So today, let yourself give something up. Let go of that something weighing you down. Let go of that something even if you love it unequivocally. Because only if you give it up will something new come along. Only if you give it up will something far better enter your life. Only if you give it up will God be able to work His plans for you. Only if you give up that one thing you value so fervently now, will you see that it wasn't really worth it after all.

and trust me, convincing others is far less a challenge than trying to convince yourself. myself.
