If you’re feeling frightened about what comes next, don’t be. embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness, don’t waste time with regret. spin wildly into your next action. enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes; because you’ll never get another one quite like it. and if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart… where your hope lives. you’ll find your way again.maybe that’s just growing up. when you’re young, you tell yourself things like “well, if it didn’t work out, it wasn’t meant to be" as if that actually meant something just because it sounds like it does. i think you can say something like that so blithely because you expect to stumble onto something else just as wonderful just around the next bend in the road. but people are rare perfect unique things and just because everyone really does live a life full of farewells doesn’t mean you shouldn’t at least realize what it really means to say goodbye to something that meant everything. just because you will survive and get over it doesn’t mean you should let it go.To those of you who have pushed me, thank you- without you i wouldn’t have fallen. to those of you who laughed at me, thank you- without you i wouldn’t have cried. to those of you who just couldn’t love me, thank you- without you i wouldn’t have known real love. to those of you who hurt my feelings, thank you- without you i wouldn’t have felt them. to those of you who left me lonely, thank you- without you i wouldn’t have discovered myself, but it is to those of you who thought i couldn’t do it— it is to you i thank the most because, without you i wouldn’t have tried.every now and then, those three little words slip out. no, not “i love you." and no, not "i hate you." but i miss you. and for an instant, i can’t stand myself. because i know you never thought about me half as much as i thought about you. because i can’t stop thinking about you. i can’t get you out of my head - from under my skin. i’m never going to show you how broken i am inside. i am never going to show you how i need you in my life. you’ll never hear me say that i miss you or find out that you’re the reason that i cry. you’ll never catch me, because you’ll never see me fall. if we break down and began to cry, it can make us feel weak. but the true fact is that breaking down and crying makes us a stronger individual. how is that you ask? because it means that you feel emotions so strong that they completely take your body by storm and cause you to release all the sad, negative energy you have deep inside. after a good cry you might still feel bad, but remember that split second after you just finished crying… isn’t it the most amazing, weight lifting feeling in the world?there’s always going to be one thing you wish for but never get. that one mistake you wish you can erase but can never take back. and most of all, that one memory you would do anything for, just to have it again.
