After You Have Been Stripped Of Everything...

Sometimes your humanity is stripped of everything. You look in front of you and you don't seem to see that hope, that hope that used to shine so bright just around the corner.
It's not that you are indigent, it's not that you haven't eaten in a day or two but you have been stripped of your respect and hope of happiness. Indeed your pride has been stolen.
There is no need grovelling at this point for restoration. Cut your losses. Hold on to your defiance if you can, live off any or all of silence, stoicism, hate, indignation and the anger. Sometimes it nourishes, sometimes it kills.
Silence is better than the cries, the plenty words of pleading especially for those that have resolved to destroy you. Only use words when they are of more benefits than silence .
