rejected?!?

Don't be discouraged. It's often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.

Never consider the possibility of failure; as long as you persist, you will be successful.

remember: everybody wants happiness..

nobody wants pain...
but you can't have a rainbow,
without a little rain.

Between you and every goal that you wish to achieve, there is a series of obstacles, and the bigger the goal, the bigger the obstacles. Your decision to be, have and do something out of the ordinary entails facing difficulties and challenges that are out of the ordinary as well. Sometimes your greatest asset is simply your ability to stay with it longer than anyone else.
It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.
