Stand.

Sometimes, life can be so random.

We never expect things to be a certain way, and we would never even think it could happen, until it actually happens.

When we are so comfortable doing the things we do, we would never think of changing they way we act or behave, eventhough a tiny part of ourselves know, that some of those actions or behavior are somewhat questionable.

People around us usually see the consequences of our actions even before we actually do.
And no matter what they tell us, we refuse to believe, and instead choose to remain oblivious to something that is even against our own principles and values sometimes.
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? Matthew 7:3

But, when someone suddenly pulls the carpet from underneath where we were standing, we come crashing onto the ground, face first.

And then, reality hits us, hard. Reality, albeit an illusion, it's a very persistent one. And we feel that it's impossible to stand up on our feet again.

And today, I can finally stand, on my own two feet again.

Baby steps.

But ironic isn't it,
we ignore those who adore us,
adore those who ignore us,
love those who hurt us,
and hurt those who love us.
