Recently one of my friends had told me about his unhappiness encountered which had kept inside his heart long ago. It is better to keep his identity anonymous. I can roughly understand how he feels.
He always asked me, what are the differences between island and land? This question kept amusing me, and only he told me that island is stand by its own and land is made up of many states, just like Penang as island, while other states in Penisular Malaysia as land. The only connection is via Penang bridge. Using this analogy, he attempts to describe himself as island, or other means being "isolated", I told him it is sometimes cannot be avoided.
He is always being positively minded that every thing in the world is wonderful, world is full of kindness, he was so naive in believing in others. He always believes in hope is all around. I can't really let him down by disagree with his statement, I always tell him "All is well" and "whatever kindness you gave will be repaid in future". I recalled that one of my close friends in Form 6, he ever told me that "for every event that happened to us there must be hidden agenda behind, it can be good or bad , depends on how you think". Thus I share this words of wisdom to my poor friend whose was often feel upset about his life. I may not be a good counselor, but I can be a good listener. I always listen to his problems and giving some encouragement to lighten him up.
I may be able to become his listener of problems, but I myself encountered some problems as I go through my life, and it is hard to find a listener to my problems. However comparatively his problems were more severe than I do.
He always asked himself, "Do I exist? Am I a shadow? Am I a blind or deaf? Do others have hearts to beat on?" I realized that he was so disappointed that people do not regard his existence, tend to "isolate" him, as he was infected with contagious disease, even if he has it, it was his "kindness" that others fear about it. Or perhaps people thought that he was blind or deaf that he cannot see or hear what other says or do to him. I can't really help much about this while just keep on calming him down, to comfort him. I tell him everything will be fine soon, as rainbow comes after raining. I advised him to meditate and reflect on himself, cheering himself on his passion, kindness, and other abilities that others may not have. I believe that everyone is born with own uniqueness, so does he.
Lastly, I feel that world may be unfair to certain people, but being strong to make it through is essential. Just like how I often tell myself, "No matter how harsh the odds against me, I will remain strong, because I believe in hope will arise one day"
