real hard time

This is unbelievable I know but those people who just left after i had tried to help me have been talking all over town. They are calling me things that arent very nice. Things that I really dont even want to write in my journal. People are believing them. I had just made a friend in the last couple of days. She refuses to talk to me anymore because of the things that were said. I didnt do anything to these people!! All I did was try to help them!! This man is so controlling that people are actually intimidated by him. This town is like that. It is a small town and noone relaly knows me all too well. Now I will not show my face into town again. I have been crying for the past two hours. I just feel like a fool. I sat in the bathtub earlier and wondered if I even wanted to keep going anymore. I decided to get online after my bath for awhile and you wont believe what happened. I had thoughts of just quitting. I am so tired. Then an e-mail came to me from my cousin who lives in Texas. I have not talked to her or heard from her in a couole of years. She wanted to share a poem with me that my grandma had written a few months ago. My grandmother had passed away a little while ago.

Don't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,

When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,

When the funds are low, and the debts are high, 

And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, 

When care is pressing you down a bit, 

Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns, 

As everyone of us sometimes learns,

And many a failure turns about,

When he might have won had he stuck it out,

Don't give up though the pace seems slow, 

You may succeed with another blow.

Success is failure turned inside out,

The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,

And you never can tell how close you are,

It may be near when it seems so far;

So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,

It's when things seem worse,

That you must not quit.

 

Isnt that something?? It's just bizarre that it was sent to me tonight of all nights. Defenetly a message from someone.
