“When things don’t work out in life, that’s out of your control but you have a choice, a moment, where you decide to build your own life. It’s putting aside your hurt, your pride, your anger and making things happen. It’s never easy but it’s usually worth it at some point.”

It is always comforting to know that out there somewhere, someone shares the same thought, same view as you. It keeps you sane, less lonely, less crazy. You are not crazy. Nor stupid, Amanda Tan.

When you put your pride, hurt and anger aside to make things happen, it doesn’t make you lesser than what you are — You become the bigger person because you see the bigger picture.
