His answer was very simple –
“I believe that if I want something in life, I have to work
for it instead of cribbing about how I do not have
certain things. I have the capabilities and the strength
in me to take on all the hard things in life as I know it
would only make me stronger”.
As soon as Matt heard him say these things, he got
inspired by his friend and decided to start welcoming
all the good and the bad things like Ren does. He knew
it wouldn’t be easy at first but he wanted to believe in
things like his friend does and see where things go for
him.As weeks pass by, Matt changes from a gloomy,
pessimistic person to a free happy person. His days
start getting better, he no longer cribs about things
that aren’t in his control and starts trying to make most
of his desires come true. He scores straight A’S in his
exams, gets an admission in one of the Ivy league
schools, his parents who were struggling with debt end
up clearing it all and now everything seems to have
become normal and happy in his life. He finds himself
wondering how things would have played out if he was
still the spoilt gloomy brat, who would only cause and now everything seems to have
become normal and happy in his life. He finds himself
wondering how things would have played out if he was
still the spoilt gloomy brat, who would only cause trouble for his parents, who would never pay attention
to his grades and who would only demand all
unnecessary expensive items.
He was now glad that he had a conversation with Ren
and that everything his friend told him opened his eyes
and his mindset changed as well.
