There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroad.
Afraid, confused, without a road map.
The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. Of course, when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back.
But once in a while, people push on to something better.
Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone, and just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in, or to give someone a second chance.
Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream.
Because it's only when you're tested that you truly discover who you are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be.
The person you want to be does exist, somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith and belief. And beyond heartache and fear of what lies ahead.

well said Lena.
whenever we are left at a crossroad, stop and think smart. never make a hasty decision as it could ruin your life forever.
@ rayshma: of course it does exist, it is what makes you - YOU. And in the end the hope for the better us is always there :)
@ samby: if it is for you being happy and content with yourself and things you do, family wont prevent. in the end they want you to be happy. just sometimes they are overprotective.

YOU OKAY LENA???????????
The best thing is to know God's purpose in our lives and to lead our lives based on that purpose. Just blog hopping. Thanks and God bless.
Personality is a purpose.
very true...and that person includes all ur fears too as well as all your hopes.

Well, they say...
"Dont love me for wat i m not, hate me for wat i m..."
I dont prefer to turn around and bo back, though i know i want to change the past for once, but tats only to change my present :)
but yes i agree... in the journey called life, to choose righteous paths and lanes, we somewhere keep loosing our identities, wat we are, sometimes we do things which we never wanted to, but we surrender ourselves against so called FATE...
I salute to all those who dont change themselves as i have dont to myself... everyone :)
Cheers!!!
@ kaylee: me fine, girl, dont worry :)
@ Mel: how do we know his purpose??
@ bla: Purpose of what?
@ keshi: exactly, girl :)
@ ankur:
**I dont prefer to turn around and bo back, though i know i want to change the past for once, but tats only to change my present :)
going back sometimes doesnt mean going backwards, it means recognizing that the direction you were going was not a right one and now you have to change it
"Because it's only when you're tested that you truly discover who you are. And it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be."
simply brilliant!!
