It's Okay

Source: http://catofcuriosity.blogspot.com
You always get insulted and beaten up by your father for not being as perfect as he wanted you to be.
It's okay. That way you know how not to treat your son, what not to expect of him and what not to call him.

You find having true friends is hard work and most people are out there just to use you.
It's okay. At least you know your true friends are honest and loyal to you, and you learn to value them all the more.

You get pushed around and bullied around by people wherever you go and whatever you do.
It's okay. At least you learn to defend yourself so you don't get easily cheated and played a fool.

You find that everything you do up until now ends up in failure, and nothing ever turns out right.
It's okay. At least you know of a hundred ways something will not work for you. The hundred and first will probably go your way.

You are not as successful and well to do in your career as your friends and they laugh at you for being a loser.
It's okay. The road less travelled is often misunderstood, but the rewards are more than any highway travelers can comprehend.

You can't seem to handle your finances properly and are always finding yourself in debt.
It's okay. You are still young. At least you're figuring these things out before you start a family.

Your friends and family keeps asking why you're not married yet, and why you a not in a stable relationship.
It's okay. At least you know the real reason is because you're too afraid you'd turn into your dad.

Your mom keeps reminding you of how much a loser your dad is, and that you're turning into him without you realizing.
It's okay. At least you know that at this point the only person you're hurting is yourself.

You are constantly put in place and reminded of how insignificant you are to the world, and how far down the food chain you really are.
It's okay. At least it teaches you to be more humble and to have more gratitude for what you already have.

You are too far down the food chain and you hate not having control over your life.
It's okay. Frustration is the first step to revelation and change.

You find people around you quite annoying and hard to tolerate.
It's okay. You hate them partly because they remind you of you. Now you know how not to act.

You set lifetime targets too high and always fall short of it.
It's okay. Falling short of a target is always better than not having one at all.

Your friends and family always ask why you din't have a proper job and why are you always thinking of doing stupid things. They ask you why can't you be like everyone else.
It's okay. Only 5% of the world's population know their true potential, the rest merely exist for the sake of 
existing.

You made a wrong move that will potentially change the entire course of your life. With an option open, you decide to live by that mistake. Your friends asked if you've lost your mind, and why didn't you take up on the option.
It's okay. The only thing that sets a self-respecting person from the rest o the world are principles. You upheld yours, and you respect yourself for that.
