My LifeStory in My Favorite Quote – I
Whenever I feel alone, whenever I am disappointed with my relations, whenever my expectations and hopes are murdered, whenever I feel betrayed, whenever my faith is shaken…

Weekly Photo Challenge: Surprise – Hardships in Progressive Countries
“When you leave home to follow your dreams, your road will probably be riddled with potholes, not always paved in happy Technicolor bricks. You’ll probably be kicked to the ground 150 million times and told you’re nuts by friends and strangers alike. As you progress you may feel lonely or terrified for your physical and emotional safety. You may overestimate your own capabilities or fail to live up to them, and you’ll surely fall flat on your face once in a while.”
