Smile despite of discouragements. Laugh at unfairness.
That's what I'm doing right now.
I have nothing against them, because I know "recognition" won't satisfy me (though part of it will), it is what I have now in my life that's really satisfying.
I don't really ask to get credited with every effort I did.
You know, when I wished to be the valedictorian, consequences were nowhere in my mind back then.
But then, as I looked at the recently released newspaper of our school, I realized how hard it was. I can't seem to win at some point against those whose desires were to steal what I got.
All I wanted is fairness, you know people will look at that newspaper and they'll surely look for the valedictorian, and what will they find there? Nothing about me. Just nothing.
I have no powers to reason out myself in others' minds.
Therefore, I cheer up myself.
I smile and said a simple but meaningful words, "My name is reserved to be posted in somewhere else much greater than that newspaper."
