Bitter Taste of Rejection (Move On or Give Up?)

"Rejection does'nt hurt, expectation does' cited from tweet of @qayAF 

Today, I supposed to write another theme of post as I promise to my friend but I just saw result of selection for scholarship that I followed and I found out that I wasn't in the list. Although I already knew that passing the selection was a hard thing for me but still I felt bitter. Regardless of this disappointment, I need to encourage myself to seek new chance and to challenge myself to make some improvement. This is the time to do what people say move on.

Hashtag for Move On in Twitter
I tried to search for move on thing in one of famous social media called Twitter and almost of tweet that contain 'move on' just related to relationship chase. Come on guys, relationship isn't the only matter in the world that need a phrase 'move on' ( I hope there will be universal advice for move on someday). I remembered some story from successful people that always face a bunch of failures before reach their success. No need to think the phrase 'give up', Dreamer's dictionary isn't contain 'give up' words.

For those that face the bitter taste of rejection like me, tighten your belt because that mean you aren't enough tried. Keep your spirit and tried harder than before. Although sometimes you may feel hurt but still you need a hope to keep alive.
