Strength

New year... new thoughts... new resolutions... new values? Not really.
Over the years, I have seen people liking other people for what they do, what have they done in life. Very few people appreciate others for the way they think. Some are even subjected to mockery of others. Why is it that ideals for one are subject of humor for others?

I just feel lonely with my values. But should I really be feeling that way? I know I am not wrong. This is what I have been told. This is what is correct. This is for the "greater good". Why should I bend my ways? I am too strong? Of course I am. This is who I am. A part of my being, my identity. I need not compromise on this. That would kill what I am.

I need strength to carry on. A voice telling me, its not what you have done, but its what you are. And what you have done is just a consequence of what you are. I have support of people who will be behind me come what may. So why should I leave the side of what is correct. Whatever has happened, has happened for good. There is absolutely nothing to feel intimidated of. If it doesn't happen, too bad for me. But I will be glad that I kept trying.
