Ever read Waiting For Godot?
It's about these two guys waiting for someone who never comes. It's really funny too! But it's really about mankind sticking it out, waiting till the end.
You should read it if you get the chance.

The wall

A man was pursued by various criminals that wanted to kill it. The man entered to a cave. The criminals began to seek it for the previous caves of the one that was found. With such desperation he elevated a prayer to God in the following way:

"Omnipotent God, do that two angels descend and they cover the entrance so that they enter not to kill me". Just then listened to the men approaching the cave in which he was found, and saw that a little spider appeared. The little spider began to weave a web in the entrance. The man elevated again another prayer, this more distressed time:

"Lord, I asked you angels, not a spider." And continued: "Lord, please, with your powerful hand places a strong wall in the entrance so that the men cannot enter to kill me". It opened the eyes expecting to see the wall covering the entrance, and I observe to the little spidervweaving the web. They were already the criminals entering in the previous cave of the one that the man was found and this remained expecting its death. When the criminals were set against the cave in which the man was found already the spider had covered all the entrance, then I listen itself this conversation:

First man: "We go, we enter to this cave." Second man: "No you dont see that to there are webs?, nobody has entered this."

The faith is to believe that has what itself is not seen, to persevere in the impossible thing. There is a very beautiful phrase that says: "If you ask to God a tree will give it you in the shape of seed". We ask things that since our human perspective they are what we need, but God gives us those with which shows us that with very simple things He can do a lot more. As in this reading at times we ask walls to be sure, but he would have no merit therefore we would know and we would have the certainty that we are protected, God on the other hand confidence asks us besides in it to leave it that his Glory be declared and do that something as a web give us the same protection that a wall. If you have asked a wall and do not see but that a web, recalls that God can convert the things... and trusts in it. The appearances deceive, we have always confidence in God.

This is the history of a boy that had very badly character. His father gave him a market of nails and told him that each time that to get angry, should nail a nail behind the door. The first day, the boy nail 37 nails behind the door. The weeks that continued, to the extent that he learned to control his genius, he nailed less and less nails behind the door. He discovered that he was easier to control his genius that to nail nails behind the door.

The day arrived in which could control its character during all the day. After informing its father, this suggested him that withdrew a nail each day that managed to control his character. The days passed and the youth could announce its father that did not remain more nails to withdraw of the door.

His father I take him of the hand and I carry him to the door. It told him:

—You have worked hard, my son, but sight all those pits in the door. Never more will be the same one. Each time that you get angry, leave scars exactly as the ones that here see.

You can insult someone and to withdraw it said, but of the way as be to told devastated it it, and the scar lasted for always. A verbal offense is as harmful as a physical offense.

The friends are in truth a rare jewel. They cause they laugh you and they encourage you to that be successful. They lend you all, they share words of compliment and always they want to open us their hearts.
YOU ARE MY FRIEND. Please if some time leave a scar in your door, you excuse me and thanks by being my friend.

That was touching, Eskarpin, as usual.

True friends really are like rare jewels. But if you're not careful, they can cut you like a knife.

I guess you need to follow your heart and let your emotions guide you. And happiness is sure to follow. :wink:
The truth shall set you free.
