The fact's true that a lot of us actually found the true strength of their voice after hitting the rock bottom....And as you said, we should in fact learn to put these mentalities aside & congregate our focus on our purpose...the thing is, we so easily become slaves to our thoughts that sometimes it gets very hard to congregate our focus to our real purposes..But time will be the healer I suppose...hope we'll finally learn to control our perception to reach the destination of our dreams....
