I was thinking of what I have done lately, and think that I might have done something really terrible. I was thinking of giving up.
I wanted to give up my study, and my website, I wanted to give up my life, and give up trying. I used to think that good is not good enough because I can always get something better in life. But now I started to think that good is good enough because you can get worse if you're trying too hard.
I think I am starting to fade away and I just don't know why. Have you ever give up in life? Why do you stop trying? And how can you get those spirit back to you and continue your life with more lively?
Tell me how because I am a bit desperate here

klaudine! the bible sets before us the prospect of eternal life in perfection if we
put faith in god's provisions for life and walk in his ways. that hope is solidly
based; it will not lead to disappointment; activity in harmony with that hope can
fill our lives with real meaning even now.
we find the greatest happiness possible now and our lives take on richness of meaning when we apply bible principles and put first the doing of god's will. we do
not enrich god by serving him; he teaches us to benefit ourselves.

It's hard to always be going "full steam ahead". I try to rotate things in my life so I don't get burned out or frustrated. It doesn't mean I give up on those things, I just make sure that I'm not getting complacent. It also helps to get a goal that you are working towards. That way there is a little extra motivation. Good luck! Don't forget it's okay to take a break from something once in awhile. That doesn't count as giving up.
