Description
It's funny how our pasts frame usHow the person we used to be never lets go of who we are today
Our failures and victories
They haunt us like ghosts or visit us like old friends
But it's up to you whether you choose to dwell on it or let it be a friendly reminder
You can give up and never try again
Or you can convert your failure into energy to put towards perseverance
People who choose to give up will soon find themselves lonely at a dead end
Those who choose to keep going will find the road of success and true happiness
People say there's lots of choices you can make in life
But there's really only two
Surrender or Fight
Which one will you choose?

You know, it would be pretty cool to find something like this stone while walking along a beach ... just to look down and see a little rock with the words "don't give up" laying there, as if left for me. If I were the arts and crafts sort I think I'd make a few dozen of these and leave them about in quiet places, hoping they'd make it into the hands of those who needed them most.

Kay. I think "are" in the first line should be "our". I'm pretty sure, unless I got the meaning of the entire thing wrong. X3
And then in the line "Those who choose to keep going with find the road of success and true happiness" the sentence seems kinda incomplete without a word between "with" and "find", though I suppose it could still make sense without.
Uhm.
This comment made me feel like a bitch.

No, It's fine. I think in that line I meant "Will find", does that make sense now?
As for the are, I'll go check xD

Lul, you're welcome.
I have the exact same problem. o3o I find it best to send my stuff to somebody else before posting. I tend to read my stuff how it's supposed to be written instead of how it actually is.

UGH! I do that also! I like to copy and paste it to a grammer check thingy but it doesn't always catch it all. x3x

You still missed the "are" - which should have been an "our" - in the first line.

WafflesxSyrup In reply to Maehedrose [2012-05-27 18:45:39 +0000 UTC]
I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be "Are", I don't understand how it could be "our"

Maehedrose In reply to WafflesxSyrup [2012-05-27 20:18:08 +0000 UTC]
The line is "It's funny how are pasts frame us"
"are" makes no sense here; "our" means "yours and mine", "are" is not a possessive word.
