I imagine it hits everyone. You believe in something you have dreamed of for a long time. And one day your dream seems to vanish like one of those bubbles from a toy bubble kit. You might not even notice that it's gone at first. But things add up.
One rejection after another... and your saving grace: your own particular dream that you hold ever so close to your heart. And you wake up, and reality hits: it's not working out the way you hoped.
It's enough to literally make you crazy! I'm quite sure psychiatric hospitals are filled with people who have experienced this. The first temptation is to give up on this thing that has lived in every beat of your heart for so long. Yet if you entertain the idea of giving up, the result is that life seems thoroughly empty.
Friend, it is here you have a very important decision to make. I encourage you, keep going. You still have your self-respect. Be careful to cultivate your self-respect. For the sake of the soul that lives inside you, keep going. Do not allow bitterness to set in. Continue to do those things that you believe in. It may not lead to the result that you counted on. But you will still have you. You will always have you!
