Dear ghost,

Laying down inside a dim lit attic room,I can hear the cars passing by and the river rushing ahead. I can hear the wind beating the windows despite the TV playing a drama from a place I never visited. I can hear the cicadas; I can hear them clearly yet vaguely but none of them can overwhelm me. Because I can feel the tremble inside of me. Often, when one is standing at the cross road, their whole life flashes before. You wonder what it is that you have been living for. What is it that you will live for? But choose, I must. And that shall make all the difference.



Your snail

Daily QuotesOct 1, 2022

I always say to people to pick the road less traveled, because I want them to go on the journey they'll remember for the rest of their lives. Because if you pick the road that's less traveled you may face all kinds of failures, you may face all kinds of obstacles, you may face all kinds of hardships, and you may face all kinds of challenges. But failures exist so you can learn from them, obstacles exist so you can jump over them, hardships exist so you can survive through them, and challenges exist so you can face and beat one hell out of them. So, there's a good side to the road that's far less traveled than any other roads. And that good side is that once you reach your desired goal, once you reach your desired finish line, once you finally become successful, you know exactly what made you successful and you know how to stay successful for the rest of your life. You know that you had to go through all of that to achieve what you've achieved. You value your success as much as you value the road less traveled that took you to it. And that makes you a very powerful, wise, and knowledgeable individual. IF you however choose the road that is more traveled, IF you however choose the road that seems easier because of all the shortcuts it supposedly has, you fail sooner or later, don't ever learn from that failure, and don't ever become successful. And IF by a miracle you become successful, you don't get to be successful for the rest of your life, because you don't have the same wisdom, you don't have the same knowledge that the man who's succeeded by going through the road less traveled has and will have for his entire lifetime. May God bless you with health and prosperity.
