Never good enough!!!!
Posted: Tuesday, October 07, 2008 by Stained inLife sucks right now....Big time!!!
As I walked through a large empty lot full of sand shrouded in darkness I look up to the sky hoping to wish on a shooting star for everything to end as unfortunately I can't end it myself. After being disappointed with the lack of stars in general I bring my attention back to earth and I see a man sleeping on a sheet with what seemed like a bunch of clothes wrapped together to make a pillow. I continued to walk while feeling a little better about my own condition. As I looked back I realised I could hardly see him. I looked around and saw no one else seem to notice him lying there. He had conveniently place himself in such a way that you couldn't see him unless you knew he was there...so for now he will sleep there unnoticed...and for now I live on....
These two songs are stuck in my head....

I might not be updating this site as often cause I need to get a job. Need to move on and stop dreaming about becoming a photographer cause that does not seem to be working out and a man sitting at home unemployed is a burden on old parents who have lost hope already. The best part is whatever I shall do, it will never be good enough......................
No Stained. You got it all wrong. If jobs fell from the sky, recruitment agencies would be at a loss. So the thing about not being good enough and being miserable, forget it. Fact is everybody feels like that at one point or the other. Success and failure come and go, you set your sights on something new and better- you struggle to reach the apex because you know what lies ahead and you KNOW you can achieve it; it's you who decides whether its good enough- not other people. You probably have this pre-conceived notion: "If it's the best, people will celebrate. If it's good, people will acknowledge. If it's ok, people don't care". But we all start at "ok". Nobody started at "the best". Society has norms that 80% don't follow. Why? Because they are headstrong and don't let other people's comments and perspectives affect them. Once you look ahead and only see yourself and your objectives, that's when it will be 'good enough' for you.
Your worth is not defined by people.
I hope all that makes sense.
