When the world gets on top of people sometimes its kind of hard to pick yourself back up again.
The fear of never being good enough and then the world trampling you down and preventing you from succeeding in life.
That's what it feels like to them, but they never let it show. They let it eat them up inside rather than getting help. And people only realize when its too late.
i am going to walk you through someones life that deals with this and goes to extreme measures to prevent the pain but this impacts badly on family and friends, leading to more pain than was originally started with.
This will become clear as you read through my short story in the perspective of a person who finds it difficult to put on a smile every morning and hide how they truly feel.

Unlock me, Dear Key! "A story of an Unending Love"
Loving are part of our existence in this world 'cause we have an ability to fall, admire and love someone we met in our lives. However the crazy thing is we exceeded on our limitations cause we thought it's okay to love that way but unfortunately that's not right and fair to continually do it. There are so many expectations that made us so much dissapointed ; when we're hoping that someone that we really love will like and love us back one day. Alongside the insane decision someone could take is to believe that there's hope and Miracle that the one we chose to love will acknowledge and choose us the way we do at last. In addition, We desperately defined who will be the key on the doors of hearts but doing this thing will deceively cause so much pain in the end. Thus, the heart breaking part is when we realized that the one we're waiting to open our heart already found the right door that fits his /her keys while we are on the other side still stuck on the phase of illusion.Complete
Little Drummer Boy
It's amazing how one little choice can change a life. Not just for you, but for everyone around you. I knew that our family welcoming in a foster child would change things, but I never imagined how much. I never imagined the burden my new brother carried. But he didn't have to carry that weight on his own any longer. Sometimes family wasn't linked by blood. Sometimes a brother comes when you least expect it. Sometimes adventure comes when you step out by faith. Sometimes family is all you have Sometimes love leads to pain. But I'd embrace the pain all over again for him. Because really, we were all that he had.Complete

Things I Don't Get.
So. This is mainly just thoughts and me rambling.. Or ranting... All of the above? Mix in some of my sarcasm and you might just amuse yourself.. Or want to bash your head into your wall because I'm simply that interesting and astounding.... right. So. This should be pretty self-explanatory and the first part should pretty much be a better, or more confusing and more winded, description..Complete

Outsider
This story is for my little brother. He was the best man I ever knew, and he died too young. No, he didn't leave this life the way I tell it in this story (it is, after all, a work of fiction), but he might have had things played out a little differently than they did. Childhood sexual abuse is alive and well in America and the larger world as well. Rodney and I lived it, and that basic fact served as the seed that made this story possible. Much of what you are about to read is true. Just as much is pure fiction. You'll get that (in spades) as the book progresses. The idea of another, better life waiting "out there" somewhere is a constant of most religions, but this is not a book about any religion or, really, the afterlife. It is a story about escape and hope.Complete
