After the long weekend break, I was very eager to start the week. I felt refreshed, optimistic and ready to accomplish everything. I started my office routine after my early morning class. I listed the tasks that needs to be done and checked my email. And that's it! In a snap, my entire day was ruined by a letter of rejection.
My positive outlook is gone.
Having my desktop computer and internet connection, I tried to divert my attention to other meaningful thoughts. Someone out there perhaps led me to this inspiring video clip

I hope the disheartening email only serves as a sign that I should consider another try, another hope to build another redeeming chapter of my life

I think that video was an absolute sign that you should keep on going. :) There are bigger things awaiting you in the future. :) 2012 is going to be a magical year with many blessings!! You are amazing, never give up hope!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're having an amazing day!!

p.s. I JUST realized your from Manila! I never realized that before.. For some reason I received two emails as of late about Manila! I think that was a gentle nudge from the Universe to get back here! .. signs come in all ways, don't they? :)
I agree Amanda. In one way or another some things are not really brought about by mere coincidence.. They are signs :) Thank you for your uplifting words.
DeleteDon't stop. This rejection would definitely have some thing wise which you will understand later .
ReplyDeleteDon't give up.
Please don't feel discouraged! Try again! You'll succeed, my friend! ♥
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear about your disappointment, Diane, but you seem like the type person who doesn't give up. I know you will persevere. And, thank you for responding to my Friend Connect questions. Bloggy friends are the best!

DeleteI know of many successful writers who were rejected again and again. The writer of THe Help was rejected several times, but now a movie was made and it has an Oscar nomination!!! Don't give up! This is all a learning experience! God bless you! Patsy from

DeletePrint out every rejection and keep them. Then when you reach your goal, either make a scrapbook or wallpaper a wall with the rejection letters. Then laugh!!! :D
