Don't give up people

I've been very low and down many times, things were really bad. I didn't have anything to look forward to. Nothing. For some unknown reason, however, I always had a glimmer of hope, albeit so very small. I'm not sure why I had hope as I couldn't give you any reasons why tomorrow should be better. Most all of the time, things didn't change. But, one day later, on one occasion, things did change, something I never could have predicted. What changed is not important. Rather, in one day, things got much better. Something that was completely unpredictable and unexpected. My point is, hang on. One day can make a huge difference. You may think and feel things are completely hopeless but you can't actually predict, with certainty, that things won't change. They might, they could. Don't give up, just one more day could make a huge difference for the better.

RCCOLA I absolutely believe in what you have to say.We don't know what tomorrow will bring but when that new

day arrives, we need to be more positive that something wonderful

could be waiting on the horizon for us.

Waking up negatively each day only brings out the worst in what

can happen. Believe in that something good can happen when you least

expect it. Great Post :) xx

Hi 👋 it’s Shnookie. Your post is so positive and reaffirming of the human spirit. As I have posted b 4, my father and his sister and parents were Jewish Holocaust survivors and also my father and aunt were child survivors. When I’m having a challenging day, I think to myself, if they could survive that hell, then I can tough this out. It’s not easy and lately I’ve been under a lot of stress but I’m determined to try to improve my life. I’m here for U.

Hugs 🤗 S

That is so helpful to hear right now. Been struggling lately and good to hear it from someone who understands. I keep fighting because a little part of me must believe that I will feel better. Thank you for your hope. I am new to this forum and really like it.

In addition to my post, please know that in some way, you're not alone. I'm only speaking for myself, although I'm sure others feel this way but, when I read replies like yours, I think about you and your situation. So just know that I really do care.

Thank you for the positive post. I didn't have that great a day today, I'm hoping tomorrow will be better. And I won't give up!!!
