How do you get past hating yourself?

Maybe here, but back home there's no changing my future. It will just continue in the same cycle.

That's not really the point, since I can be more free here. I can at least try and put the hatred past me, even if only a little by little.

You seem really certain of that, but I can't say that I agree. There's things that you can't know for sure until you try it or you experience it. Even if you keep getting a certain result, it doesn't mean that it's guaranteed to happen each time.

If this is all related to something that happened back home, though, I would say there's no need to rush. It might be better to try to take your mind off of it for a while and get a fresh start here. I'm using this chance to try to improve myself, too!

You don't know my circumstances and what I have been tasked to do. It's more complicated that you think.

You're right. It's just hard to stop thinking sometimes.
