A Born Loner

I once had some friends.
They told me to share the pains and sorrows of life with them.
They told me they can provide the helping hand i may need sometimes.
They told me they will be the solutions to some of my problems.
They told me that they will never leave me,and told me that i should stay with them

But look at me now.
I stayed,but they all left.
And i'm going back into the nothingness i was within.
Standing alone,struggling with life's challenges.
Nobody to hang unto, nobody to miss and to love.
No one that will reach their hand to help me in case i fall.
No one and no one at all.

Here i am,walking against the wind alone.
I'll have to learn to struggle with only myself,not to tremble in front of all the pains in life.
Not to fall on my knees everytiome i'm scared.
Not to run everytime i face an obstacle.
To depend on nobody but myself.
To trust nobody on myself.
And probably not to love anybody but myself.

Because only now i can realize that
I am a truly born loner.

The Winner and The Loser

One day, a man was sitting on a bench in the park, and at the same time, there's a boy sitting near him.

That boy started to throw rocks to the pond in front of them.

That man started to think that the boy was trying to annoy him, so he started to throw some rocks, but not even one of those rocks could jump further than that boy's.

Man: You're great, boy. I can't throw that far! I thought I could win from you!

Boy: But I think I've lost from my target, I wish I could throw these rocks to another side of this pond.
