"Bring the Pain"
"Pain comes in all forms, the small twinge and a bit of soreness; the random pain, the small pain.
Then there is the kind of pain you can't ignore, a level of pain that is so great it blocks out everything else and sorta makes the world fade away until all we can do is think about how much we hurt.
How we manage our pain is up to us.
Pain.
we ride it, embrace it, or ignore it, and for some of us the best way to manage pain is to push it away.
Pain, you just have to ride it and hope it will go away on its own, hope that the wound that caused it will heal.
There are no solutions, no easy answers.
You just breathe deep and wait for it to subside.
Most of the time the pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you when you least expect it.
It hits below the belt, and doesn't run up.
Pain, you just have to fight through because the truth is, you can't out run it, life always makes more."-
somehow my favorite tv show (greys anatomy) pretty much sums it up. I know a few of you needed this, but by the same token remember, "life is not about how many breaths we take but the moments that take our breath away."
I know first hand that sometimes life just sucks but when it doesn't, it just can't get any sweeter. I was cleaning my room theother day and I came across a collage I started and it had a quote by frank sinatra----"You have to scrape bottom to appreciate life and start living again." And although at the time it seemes we can't get through the pain there is always a silver lining. You have to kiss alot of toads to get the prince, in life as in love. And I want to tell some of you a few things that might get you through a tough time. And this is not all of you, just some who might need it right now.
Cody- I love that you can always make me laugh, and that even though you have high aspirations you still make time for your friends and family. don't get lost on the road to your dreams, for if you do what will you come home to?
Hannah- I love that no matter what you do, you do it with your whole being. You are so passionate. Dont let things that are painful consume you because when you hurt everyone around you hurts, and when you are happy so are we. :)
Sarah Duncan- I love that you are such a complex person. You are sweet, kind, goofy, serious, happy, and totally random all the time. I love it! Don't give up on anything, all of us support you, with everything you do.
C^3- I love that you are not scared to try anything. You are a talented painter, actor, and an awesome air guitarist! Don't lose you fun loving self cause if you did who would I dress up as batman characters with?
Sam Lamb- I love that you can find beauty in anything. The old guy with the birds, and regular kids doing regular things. You show that things can be ordinary and amazing at the same time. Don't let the beatiful things blind you to the things that are regular.
Ally- I love that you can put me in a good mood, even if I had a really crappy day at work or whatever, you know just what to do to make me smile. Don' get so caught up with things that you forget what really matters: good friends, good family, Good friends that ARE family. We maybe super mad at you at times but when it really comes down to it we are still family, and it's not to late to fix things.
Chestifer- I love that you always tell it how it is! You are not afraid to piss off or offend anyone who is being stupid, besides they deserve it for being stupid right?! Don't get so wrapped up that it makes you bitter, til then it's freakin funny!
Larry the goon- I love that you are who you are and you dont give a good god damn who thinks what. You are such an amazing person. Not many people can go after things the way you do without losing sight of the things they had. When you get where you are goin don't forget where you came from and if you do follow your feet they will bring you home.
Adam bentley- I love that you help others with any problem they might have, even if it is just listening, even though you yourself may be in tremendous pain. I hope to be the kind and patient person that you are someday. Don't give up on your dreams, you have come so much further than everyone said you would, because you have the passion to. You are an inspiration to many.
Pino- I love you like a sister I never had. Everyone always talks of how sisters are so close and how no matter what will always be there for you. I would drive cross country with you in a heartbeat if you needed me to cause I know you'd do the same for me. Don't let things get so built up that you snap, call me at 3 am if you need to. (I maybe at work, but you know where to find me! :)
And so it was.
