Picking up the pieces of a shattered dream is better than having no pieces to pick up at all.

About This Quote

I am not sure what dream has been shattered, but the world needs to know. I was once a good and decent person and had goals and ambitions. I was working hard and willing to do anything for my goals. When I looked at the glass as half full, it was overflowing.

Then, one day, everything changed. I lost all that work and dedication, because of something so simple as a text message from a friend who didn’t even like me. I was hurt and disappointed and felt like my life had been shattered into pieces.

But, if I pick up the pieces, then my life will be whole again.
