"People who cannot be with you at your worst have no right to be with you at your best."
Author Unknown --- Submitted by Ketki G., Age 19 --- India
I have chosen this one because when someone leaves you or start avoiding you, just because we are acting stupid or not at our best, then no need to lose your confidence or cry for that person becauseif he is not able to support you at your worst, then he definitely doesn't deserve you at your best... so no need to cry for such people. Just go ahead in life; remove all the bitter memories and havethe sweet ones always with you.
"Three years ago I was hospitalized for Cellulitis in my right foot. Cellulitis is an infection that if it reaches the bones or brain, you can die or have the infected area amputated. I was in the hospitalfor 3 1/2 weeks . I lost 10 pounds and couldn't eat anything. I was weak. I didn't have the will to fight anymore and often cried myself to sleep. To top it all off, on Easter, there was an earthquakewhile I was a patient at the hospital. I thought for sure I was gonna die because I was on one of the top floors. I cried & cried but then the earthquake was over . I realized I was lucky to havesurvived Cellulitis and an earthquake and I thank God everyday for helping me get through everything."
