every song ends, but that's no reason not to enjoy the music.
i promise, if you just surround yourself with the right people, life will be easy. those who will crack corny jokes with you and treat you right are your real friends & it is important to know that it is okay to only have a few of these people around, and it’s also okay to have lots; whatever suits you. Do not let other peoples’ opinions or even other friend group sizes discourage you; if what you’ve got works for you, you’re doing great. Having supportive friends means you can discard the constant worrying about looking perfect and acting a certain way in front of certain people; you can finally be happy. Chances are, if the people you choose to spend time with don’t make you feel good, you’re not happy. & you may not always realize it since you’re so adapt, but there is no way in he/ll you are ever enjoying yourself while faking or hiding your own personality for the sake of being more “likable” to others. & this isn’t healthy, or worth it at all for that matter… because living is supposed to be enjoyable. So if you’re going to take anything beneficial away from reading this, take this advice: stop making life more difficult for yourself than it needs to be. Blatantly, all our heartache and drama is self-induced. It may be hard to understand while you’re in the fragile state of heartbreak, but trust me on this…you cannot blame those who have hurt you for the fact that you are feeling so broken. Yes, it will be difficult, but you have to pick yourself back up. You cannot rely on others to help you. & please, do not think I say this because they won't, I’m sure there are some amazing people who will be there for you and willing to do all they can. But the harsh truth is that everyone has their own lives. And although you may see your problems as bigger, everyone has their own inner-struggle to handle too. The only way to ensure that you won’t fall back into your depression while no one is there to catch you is to bring yourself back to the bright, shining person you remember, all on your own. Take control of your own feelings; take control of your own life. That’s when you can be proud, that’s when you can finally say, “I made it.” So start today, I dare you. Try living drama-free. Live life simply, and life will be simple back to you.
