believe me abet, you do not want to move to a foreign land and start anew.

you ARE deserving of respect, okay? read andi's comment. she made that perfectly clear in her post.

you know what? sometimes, we get so caught up in all that goes wrong (yes, it's hard not to), that we sometimes forget that that isn't all there is to our lives. you can't ever get everyone to love you, to respect you or even give a damn about you. but that doesn't mean that there aren't people that do. it's easy to get all depressed about life's road bumps. but don't you think there are things more worth your time?

there are people out there that you help, every single day. there are people out there whose lives you have touched, and have helped make a difference, even in some small way. you will never get enough thanks, but no one can ever take away your being able to have done that.

there is nothing wrong with you. and you are not unlovable. aren't there parts of the day, too, that make you feel thankful and happy to be alive? friends that help make you smile, loved ones that do the things they do, however routine, so that you can go on doing your thing, too. you just have to stop.. shed that this-world-sucks feeling.. and smile. the good parts of the day will come to you.. you just have to let it. better than getting mad at all the day's miserable events (which will only lead to even more sulking and wallowing in despair.. right?

kaya mo yan, abet. see, even andi, who barely even knows you, took some time out from her busy sked to help you out. :)
