It took me a while to realize that my path I have to walk alone. It took a while because the mind is stubborn; once it experiences something it likes or simply wants something a lot, it is extremely difficult to get out of it. We tend to cling to ideas, lifestyles, and people in our lives thinking that if they are gone we won't be able to live without them. Some things become essential, and taking them away may feel like the end of the world.
But this creature we call "human" - us, humans... There is so much more inside. Our minds and bodies are capable of amazing things, and no matter what comes our way, it is possible to grasp it and keep going.
