What You Actually Have Is You

Hey, everybody. It's been a while since I last posted something. Hopefully, I'll remain faithful to my blog from today on.
These days, one truth revealed itself to me in an excruciating manner that resembles labour. I finally came to accept that in the most painful moments of my life I am alone. At the moment where I need the loving presence of others, I'm alone to face life's beatings. No family or friend was able to penetrate my hurting heart to comfort it. I had literally to go through it all by myself. And I told myself that the only one I have is me.
This revelation is not some sort of egoistical isolation of oneself, nor some sort of self-pity. It is a hard fact unsurfaced by life's reality. I've been taught by life in the way that I could understand I've to pull it together and be a man if I want to achieve anything worth while with my life. No one, I mean it-no one, will be there for you when you are going through the harshest things that can happen to your life. I don't feel at all the desire to close in on myself and hate people. Rather, what I feel is to live like a human and be courageous to face everyday mundane life without bitterness. 
Here are the lessons summarized:
1. Don't lower your standards to anyone, not even to wife or husband or any close person.
2. Stick to your guns.
3. Don't entertain negative thoughts about others and yourself.
4. Know that you have absolutely no reason not to be happy in life.
