At times it seems as if no one cares. It seems like I try so hard but everyone just wants to see me fail. I try to be nice. I mind my own business, but people go out of their way to try to ruin everything I've ever done, just in spite. And the thing that hurts the most is the fact that I was betrayed by people that I thought I could trust in any way. It hurts feeling like this, and I hate being like this, but I guess it's just all a part of living.


I guess the only thing I can do is pray about it!

Welcome to leadership! When we try to achieve success, there will always be someone who tries to stand in our way for selfish reasons.

Many times, we think that because we are trying to do something positive, we'll gain the support of others. Truthfully, people will hate and despise you because of your success. They will say that you don't deserve it, and try to sabotage the good things that you're bringing into your life.

It's at times like this that we need to examine why we're trying so hard. Is it to impress others, or deep-down are we working to create a better life for our loved ones? From that perspective, let these challenges motivate you to achieve more. Imagine the satisfaction of becoming victorious while the haters have to stand there and watch.

You're learning to become a better judge of peoples' personalities and intentions, and you will achieve more in life because of it.

Stay strong, and yes prayer does help. Try Psalms 7.

Peace and Blessings

I went through the same thought process last year. Unfortunitly I wanted those ppl to love me so I put myself through a lot of unnessary pain. I have come to the realization that these ppl are not ppl I need in my life and that I need to take some time to step back and wait for God tell me where to go next. I thought I was the only person in the world who felt that way. Once you come to a similar conclusion you'll realize that everything Mr. Jonathan Carter said above is so true and it'll be the farthest thing from your mind.
