Dear Dharshini
October 12th, 2009
As a friend, I am terribly upset with myself for not being able to be there for you when I heard about you getting very very close to be able to continue your course in Scheme B.
I wanted to text you but I know myself, if I go on, the text message would last for more than 123882 pages. I wanted to email you but I’m not sure if you’ll be checking your email frequently, but there are a few things I wish to reach out to you.
I have been your friend for quite a few years, of course our relationship was very very close, but because of our different schedules, we sorta separated but that doesn’t mean I have completely forgotten about you. I wasn’t brave to call you up when you’re having a hard time when you got to know your results, simply because I afraid I might just cry with you on the phone, considering I didn’t do so well in my Part 1.
Of course I would not compare myself with you, I know you’re much unfortunate than me because I’ve seen you working so hard to achieve your dream but nevertheless, it’s the University of London who failed you, and what is the purpose of me writing this in my blog?
I personally want to tell you that after reading your blog, I am very proud of you as a friend. You portray yourself as a superwoman in your blog, though life has given you obstacles, you did not give up like many others would choose to do. Maybe law is not meant for you, but that doesn’t mean you’re a complete useless person, like I said, I have known you for quite some time and you are a girl with many talents which you yourself would have to identify them.
From my observation, you are a very friendly person with really great sense of humor, still remember the moments we laughed so hard in Sharifah’s car? You are someone with really kind heart, you should know yourself more. But really, law is not the only course that will take you far in life. You may never know just when you’re taking time off to ponder the path you choose, you might come across something you’re really passionate with.
If your parents are disappointed in you, please… Don’t take this to your heart, I MYSELF have seen how you worked hard for it. You really had the determination but sometimes shit happens, nobody should have the rights to blame you for not being able to make it through. But what important is, you’re really finding opportunities to get on with your life, this, my friend, is something worth complimenting.
With your determination, I am sure someday you will be able to come out as someone successful, but please remain strong no matter how many obstacles have to appear in your life. Life is always a test, those who strive through will stand up taller than those who would point at you and say, “Dharshini, you’re a failure!!!”, never ever give up, that’s all I can say.
And I sincerely hope that you would be able to find something you’re truly passionate with and rise to the top. Of course, if you ever need help, my cell is always on.
You’re a friend I will never forget.
Love,
-Ced-
Honestly till no one have ever said that to me but yes they do ask me what am I going to do next but they do tell me not to give up as well...But the situation now is totally different because of one mark my whole life has change...I know there will be people laughing behind my back but what to do as Cedric said SHIT happens sometimes...No matter what I have to be strong and move on..But I never give up in anything that's what should be noted
Cedric thank you for the post....
