We need to believe in ourselves.....

So I was listening to this funny radio show and a girl calls in. What she said was far from being funny. She talked about how she was fed up of her life and could face the world no more. Just because of her being ugly, every body treated her as if she were some 'piece of shit'. After listening to her, there was one thought that kept bugging me the whole night, COULD THERE POSSIBLY BE 'ANY' SOLUTION TO THIS??? and that was when I ended up writing the very poem that follows. This poem talks about "FAITH", 'faith in oneself', how instead of looking for flaws in one's own self and fretting over them, one needs to believe in oneself. And once that faith and belief is there, then what-the-world-thinks doesn't really bother you anymore.

A QUESTION

I have lost the feeling of contentment

I have forgotten what happiness is

Nothing makes me smile

Nothing makes me weep

Nothing makes me laugh

Nothing makes me cry

I try to feel the sense of happiness

But I don't know why

I am always in vain

No matter how hard I try

People around me laugh and cry

But I don't get it, why can't I?

Am I not normal or are they abnormal?

Somebody please tell what is my problem?

THE ANSWER

O dear!

Don't be sad

And don't even think

That you have gone mad

There is nothing wrong with you

You are absolutely on track

Actually your problem is

That all your life

You have been looking for

Flaws in your own self

For instance, why aren't you happy?

Why aren't you sad?

Why aren't you this?

Why aren't you that?

Trust me dear

When you stop doing so

You'll definitely be happy

As you were before
