i've found reasons.

its funny isn't it. one person saying simple words can completely change the way you look at your life. A friend of mine took time out of his day to talk to me, his simple words dance around my head even now. We talked in some detail about how much life can screw you over, we talked about the heartache we had both felt, and the things in our life which haven't gone any where near planned. But throughout the midst of this conversation we discovered that, when you think about it. I mean really think about it, life really isn't that bad. Despite what's happened through out the life I'm living out now, entwined with all the sadness and pain that's been forced upon me, smiles and laughter ring true.

Take a step out of your body and look at it, stare at it in the face and notice, you're surrounded by people who, although they don't always show it, care tremendously about you. You're enveloped by family who love you because they want to, not just because you're there family. You're smothered by people telling you that they're "always here for you". Take a step out, and realise.

Although deep down you always know it, it is very easily forgotten and neglected. It takes a conversation to bring it back to you, and another conversation to pass it on and to confirm it.

You're life is the longest thing you'll ever experience, and its not always going to be good, but by remember what you've always known, and holding on to the love around you. You'll get through it.

thank you Dan and Emma, for helping me remember.
