Bitterness

It is very easy to let the things in life get to us. To make us bitter and forget everything that we once believed in. To let ourselves become jaded. It is easy to let ourselves just say 'what's the point?'. It is a far far greater feat to maintain our beliefs through the hardships in life.

What defines us, if not our beliefs and what we stand for? I feel like allowing oneself to become bitter or jaded is cheating oneself. It makes you less than who you could and should be. I believe that we should take the hardships and things that life throws at us and apply them to ourselves in a manner that is positive. We should take what we believe in and apply it to life, rather than letting life define our beliefs and values.

When we allow ourselves to become bitter, we limit ourselves. We cease to try. We go through life just existing and getting by rather than trying to better ourselves or go after our dreams. We begin to believe that we aren't capable of doing anything other than exist. We become sheep. Don't be a sheep.
