This is taken from WeiQing's wordpress. Somehow, i feel strongly for this post.. and i think that it is also quite insightful. Sorry for copying and pasting this on my blog WQ ><
Strength- 28 Aug
To be honest, I’m one of the most tolerant person I know. But there is just one select character type I have absolutely no patience or respect for.
Those who are weak.
I’m not sure how to describe them properly though. People who are just so oblivious to what they have. People who are preoccupied with dwelling on little setbacks. People who sensationalize, dramatize, whine and moan about life instead of picking themselves up and actually doing something constructive to repair it.
I see that as ultimate weakness. And it disgusts me.
Annoying people I can bear with. Insensitive I can overlook. Long winded I can live with. People with the tendency to see life with such a negative perception, while affecting others around you because of your so called sufferings- I’m sorry. I feel no sympathy for you. At all.
It’s not like I don’t try. I’ll try to see it from their point of view, understand their problems. But that just makes their constant emo fests seem less justified. Because if I were them, I’d have picked myself up within an hour.
Maybe it’s unfair to compare myself with everyone else, since I can get over things quickly. But then I look around me at the strong ones.
The ones with problems they do not post all about facebook and twitter and their blogs. Those with problems so deep and intense you will never understand, and will never imagine yourself going through. Yet in real life I don’t see these problems affecting them at all.
Strong people (you know who you are, whether from HC or SN), for that I really admire you.
When I think about it, my circle of close friends are the strong sort. Even when emo bouts do abound, there’s a difference. They talk about letting go, about staying strong, about faith. They do not go on about just how miserable their lives are and how they’d rather just hole up and die.
People, you don’t understand suffering yet. Please just quit sensationalizing the obstacles that everyone experience. In fact these people seem to be the ones with the most insignificant problems.
The kind of people who are so sheltered they have never been shaken by the magnitude of news that might potentially change their lives.
I’ve been relatively lucky myself, also attributed to my ability to be optimistic I guess. Whatever happens, I’m assured I’d somehow be able to get through it myself. Instead of moping around and making it seem like a greater thing than it actually is and spending my time thinking depreciating thoughts, I’d rather just move on.
And if you’re guilty of the above, maybe you should too.
This place is just so saturated with emotional weakness it really sickens me. It makes me exhausted because trying so hard to muster up sympathy for your sad little problems when I know behind you is someone working hard to get over a problem hundred times greater than yours, without having to go through your self indulgent pitying.
Really. Just get over yourselves.
I’m sorry if this sounds harsh, but sometimes someone just needs to kick everyone back to reality and show them properly how dwarfed their issues become next to Life. I don’t like seeing people upset, especially when they don’t HAVE to be.
You can’t change the situation. But you can change your perception of it. That’s all you need to bloody do for your sad pathetic life to get better, in case you want to know. To get over yourselves.

WQ, i'm not as strong as you think i am. I just hang in there for simple pleasures of DBSK and looking forward to school and nagging at people and to go choir, where i can sing. Someday, somehow, people will leave you (as in pass on). Sometimes i imagine, imagine the worse and cry to myself and i will go through the steps on what will be 'after'. Then i wipe my tears and tell myself that 'i'm prepared for it'. Life carries on and you always keep the faith/ always keep the (blind) faith HAHA
