Just do your best and don't worry... ugh?

The old line has always been to do your best, or try your hardest. If you did that then you were rewarded with peace of mind or whatever it is you were striving for at that particular time.  Well what happens when you do your best and it still isn't enough?

When you go out of your way for people, go above and beyond what is expected of you and you still end up on the losing end. Now obviously the "the losing end" is completely up to interpretation I get that. But I guess what I am trying to say is what happens when everything you try and do comes up short.

When all your efforts are lost and nothing you do does any good? What is the correct reaction to this? Stop trying? Try harder? I really don't know what I need to do sometimes. ( maybe most times) and I am tired of trying so hard to make things better or easier only to end up making things worse.

I am not sure what needs to be done anymore I really am not. I wish I had the answers I wish I could just know what to do or what to say. All I want are simple things, peace of mind, good times, good company. But it seems like the harder I try to better myself and achieve my goals the quicker they seem to slip out of my hands.

I realize life isn't always supposed to be easy and that frustration is just part of the territory... I just don't have to like it.
