I'll always tell you to press on

Because you never know when is the day you'll suddenly have that eureka moment; that moment of enlightenment. It may come in a few year's time, tomorrow, or the next thing you do... You just never know what's coming for you even after failing so many times. School teacher talks about the Edison story of repeated failure so much that it starts to become a bore...... until it really happens to you. And you never, never, ever know when that's coming. 

Maybe it's not because you're too simple-minded. Picasso was told he was too abstract; Einstein was thought to be crazy. Who is to say your "simple-mindedness" isn't the next big thing? If there's one thing for sure, that's that you're not the same as others... You're not lazy, and you're not stupid; don't ever let failures and defeats, or even society, tell you otherwise.

But I know, I know that you're really tired and exhausted. I know you've tried. We don't know your limits. But if you decide that you have had enough, just know that I'll always be with you, standing by your side (even if not physically), no matter which way you choose to go...

Talk to people about it, your teacher; your peers; your mentors; someone that can help. 

Talk to me...

Run to me.
