giving up

when does one give up what they've been pursuing? there's no guideline on this as we all noe. but if u give up too quickly, u're branded as someone who doesnt try hard enough. and hang on for too long and wishful thinkin is just as good an alternative.

i dun care what i am branded with my actions. for me i live for myself. i dun seek approval from others. i dun seek to please others in hope of acceptance. if u love someone, u should be able to accept them for who they are. not because of who u want them to be. i guess that's a measure of true love.

so back to the topic, how do we know? i guess its that feelin when u've tried all that's within ur power and ability to chase for somethin that u really really want and one day u wake up and u feel so tired from it all. not tired in a pissed off way but tired in a lethargic kind of way. like the emotional and physical baggage has started to take its toll on u. and you hang on just a little longer to see how it goes and hope that somethin happens soon. but we all know what happens then.

so are those who continue tryin to get what they want really wasting their time? i dun think so. if it can be justified, then why not i would say. but always be true to urself. true to ur actions. dun do it for someone else. do it for yourself. coz when that someone's gone, ur motivation is gone.

do what you want, because u want to do it, not because u seek approval
