Thank you everyone for your encouraging replies. I feel that these are positive words that i have to keep reminding myself, because my life is filled with so much negativity, it can be very difficult to find optimism admidst all the pain/negativity. i am trying very hard to stay hopeful but meet with obstacles on many occasions.

Yes, i do agree that there is still a long journey of life ahead of me, but i am currently feeling stuck with the hardship.
I wish that i could move ahead and rise above these difficulties.

Hoping...
