The sound of one hand clapping

Friends and family are the closest people to us but they can’t always be there for us. There comes a time when friends will be too busy attending to their own lives and family members will be facing their own crisis situations and believe it, you will be alone.  You will be alone in mistakes that you make and the guilt that follows, you’ll be alone when you are drunk with regret, you will be alone when you need to talk, every body else will be too busy.  
There comes a defining moment in your life  when you need to be able to stand and carry on without the support of loved ones, mommy and / or daddy wont be there to clap for you when you do well.  You need to be able to hear the sound of one hand clapping, that clapping hand is yours and it’s motivating you to keep going.
