Tough Realisation Currently I am in college and have been trying to get a Job, I always was hopeful but what happened today crushed me, It was G.D round and I couldn't even introduce myself the panel had to ask everyone to leave so just i can introduce myself without hesitation even after after it i stammered, earlier i used to get rejected in one on one interviews i used to thi​​​nk it might be a skill issue and was hopeful that eventually i will make it but today it made me realize there is no hope at least not now, and once you loose hope there's nothing left failure is one thing but losing hope is just a different kind of pain, my parents have so much Expectations but i couldn't even tell them what happened today. I used to believe in god but i think we literally are the cursed people of this world upfront nothing looks wrong with us but we are deprived ​of human greatest weapon, his speech personally i would rather be born without a limb than be a stutterer.​
