Hope.



Dear me,

I tell you to keep going
not because it's easy
not because it doesn't hurt
but that's just life
to stop is to die

Life is in motion
every day is a new day
each moment is a new moment to experience
a chance to come back
to get it right

I tell you to keep going
not because everyone else is doing it
not because others expect you to
I tell you to keep going
because this is your life
no one is in control of it except you

Allah has indeed
planned your life for you
but that's no excuse
for you to not plan your own life

Go
make mistakes
because to make mistakes
is to learn
and to learn
is to live

If you wake up tomorrow
be grateful
for He has given you another chance
to set things right
He is telling you
that hope is alive
so rejoice
because hope
is the only thing
stronger than fear.

So yeah, result SPM nak keluar dah in less than 48 hours. I can say that I'm not the least bit afraid but I'd be lying. Truth is I'm not sure if I'm ready to face whatever's coming. Actually I  am ready to get my result because let's face it, we can't run or hide anymore. I'm just not ready to face the things that comes after getting them. Like, you know, applying for colleges or deciding on a course or having to leave home and be a part of society. I'm pretty sure that majority of my friends are experiencing the same thing. It's just so unimaginably nerve-wrecking I tell you. Oh and lets not forget the EXPECTATIONS that we have to fulfill. Teachers, family, friends. But I don't mind that much because having people expect things from you is completely normal. Just as normal as you having expectations for others. So it's fine.

Therefore, as cliche as it may sound, whether you fail or succeed,  just keep moving forward and keep on striving. As they say, things change, people leave, and life doesn't stop for anybody.

Whatever happens, don't dwell on it. Just. don't. dwell. on. it.
