Shall I or shall I not give up??

Sometimes I wonder if I am lying to myself or trying to be confident by telling myself that 'everything is going to be okay'. 

Every choice I had to make so far in life has never been easy. I always went against the tide and took the road less travelled. I rarely complained if ever of the consequences I had to face due to my stubborn decisions. I have always been clear of what I want and what I do not. I never minded going through any kind of hardship in pursuit of my goals. Every hardship was just a kind reminder that I am giving my best shot if anything else and a reason to put a smile on my face for not giving up. Because I believe there is some kind of achievement in not giving up. 

But few-times like now, I wonder if I was wrong. Maybe the world doesn't need people like me who are passionate or want to give their best in everything they do. Maybe it just needs ; people who are unhappy, doing things they never wanted to, living lives of someone else's dream and believing that is all to life. 

So far, I have not been disappointed in life with anything. Well, there have been a few instances in which I wish I had dealt in a more matured way but again that was my life's way of teaching me the lessons I needed. With few regrets and great difficulty I have learnt to embrace the past and present. But thinking about the future and the uncertainty it comes with, I wonder if I have to take the easy way out and stop pushing myself to the edge. 

Maybe I should quit being strong and accept that there is a threshold limit to everything and accept whatever the world offers me. Right???

Or maybe not. 

Taking the easy way out and finding excuses and blaming someone else is EASY. And nobody ever becomes a WINNER by taking the easy way out and settling for something less than what they have aimed for. 

I would rather keep this fight going to make my dreams come true rather than giving up now and never knowing if they might have all been fulfilled only if I had tried a bit harder.

P.S.  Each and everyone in a battlefield is a winner. You kill someone or get killed, you are a winner. Because it is courage to not give up and believe in ones dreams that makes one a winner. 

Maybe the light at the end of the tunnel is just a few steps away. And till then I shall use my flash light and you be sure to provide it with batteries! ;)
