&lt;p&gt;rather low. is it because everyday is a struggle? for weeks i have tried very very hard to not feel anything. and by ‘anything’ i mean ‘hurt/pain/lost’. for weeks i have denied my feelings. just when i thought the denial was working, i hit a wall straight on. so today i’ll give myself a break. today, i’m feeling low. that doesn’t make me weak, does it?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
I’ve been feeling exactly like that too. But everyone goes through low points in their lives..It doesn’t mean you’re weak just because you’re feeling bad about it, it means you are human. In fact, it will eventually make you stronger once you get through it..(and you will..)&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thank you sweets… i keep waiting and hoping to not feel anymore… at least at this point, i believe that one day, i will be better. and much much stronger… and thank you again… =)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://chicarosa.tumblr.com/post/322041249</link><guid>http://chicarosa.tumblr.com/post/322041249</guid><pubDate>Fri, 08 Jan 2010 04:52:59 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>tragedyinhereyes:

Maybe things do happen for a reason, maybe they don’t. but no matter what, they still happen. That’s what we need to remember. I learned to stop analyzing things, to just let them happen. And if I get hurt, or if something bad happens, then it happens. There’s nothing I can do to change that. I’ve learned to go with my gut, and that it’s okay to make mistakes because the ones that matter, won’t care. I’ve learned that love really is as great as they say it is. I’ve learned that your friends can save you from your worst enemy: yourself. And most importantly, I’ve learned that today is all we have.”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;(via &lt;a href="http://runawaytrain.tumblr.com/"&gt;runawaytrain&lt;/a&gt;) (via &lt;a href="http://samantha-x.tumblr.com/"&gt;samantha-x&lt;/a&gt;) (via &lt;a href="http://sognare.tumblr.com/"&gt;sognare&lt;/a&gt;)(via &lt;a href="http://poehleroid.tumblr.com/"&gt;poehleroid&lt;/a&gt;) (via &lt;a href="http://fortheloveofpetrichor.tumblr.com/"&gt;fortheloveofpetrichor&lt;/a&gt;) (via &lt;a href="http://constantflux.tumblr.com/"&gt;constantflux&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://chicarosa.tumblr.com/post/321824575</link><guid>http://chicarosa.tumblr.com/post/321824575</guid><pubDate>Fri, 08 Jan 2010 01:43:13 +0800</pubDate></item><item><title>j-p-g:
