Skate Life

I need advice. (:

recently everything Ive ever worked for has been taken from me and I dont know how to get it back. Have any of u ever had that problem where u want something so bad and u get the opportunity and then u blow it, just like that. Im kinda lost right now, and normally I would turn to sk8ting but I cant cause my sk8ts need repairs. I know I have to find a new goal inlife and I just cant find it no matter how hard I try. I was hoping cause we all have things in common maybe one of u guys could help me out with some life advice or something, cause Im getting despate to the point where Im starting not to care about anything and I know thats not the right place for me. Can anyone give any advice?

I know what it is like to have things you work for taken from you, at least in a sense. I spent most of my youth preparing myself for a military career only to be rejected once I graduated because of some surgery I had. Some things are just out of our control, and it won't do any good to worry about those things because we can't change them.

Others in this thread gave great advice I agree with. I think it was William Shatner who once said, "Life is like a giant pendulum, just wait for it to swing your way and hop on for the ride." There will always be more opportunities, just be patient and keep your eyes peeled for them.

Also keep skating! :)
