I'm a sucker for inspirational stories... books, movies.. In fact, i just watched The Bucket List just this morning.

It has never cease to amaze me how in these movies, there are always moving and thoughtful phrases that provoke our thoughts. If anything, inspirational. Heck, honestly, why do those people just know what to say at the right time?

I always want to give people inspiring advices when they feel down, or depressed. But lately, most of the times it does not play out like the movies or books do anymore. More often than not, I end up mumbling a jumble of crap which probably serve no relevance to the main problem.. And often screwing things up.

Yeah, that's probably how it always turn out. Screwed.

I don't even seem to understand the other party enough to even lay out proper advices.

I thought i know enough.. but it's now that i realise i wasn't even close.. and probably will never be. Or even maybe.. i've already realised it long ago but i was being in denial. I thought it's just probably one thing that i don't understand.. and perhaps i'd be able to understand it soon enough. But obviously it hasn't happened.

At the end of everything, the best i could say..
is that things will be better.

Even that doesn't sound convincing anymore.. I've said it all too many times before since the start. Especially too, when that comes from me who has never endured hardships.

Sigh. For the first time in my life.. i feel like i couldn't do anything right.

Downright useless.
