Feel-good message this is sorta neat. enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's funny how lfe can seem at 4:13 AM... after spending another wonderful day on the rollercoaster from hell we call life. A friend told me that I am not alone in my feelings of remorse, that in my feelings of doubt I am not alone. Others feel my pain? Others have similar doubts about the future? Of course they do, we all have dreams, hopes of a better life away from the horrific parts of life we live. That same friend said that we do what we can to survive in life, that everyone that shares that classroom, dormhall, living center or that life you lead has the same fears and doubts that you do. The BEAUTIFUL girl that lives down your hall that you despise due to the fact that your not as good looking as her. The handsome buddy of yours that the girls flock to because of his dashing looks. That friend of yours who is highly intelligent and gets all the good grades. Your muscle bound friend, your friend that cracks all the right jokes, your friend that has a creative talent you will never possess. All of these people are scared. All of these people are afraid to do some things due to whatever circumstance. WE ARE ALL THE SAME, we DO have different talents, we DO have different skills, it is what makes us special in our own ways. I know this because I have friends in the above groups, and they get stumped on life like everyone else. Maybe they only seem to excell because they stick with whatever they do best, so of course they won't make so many mistakes in that field. We all need someone to talk to, someone to share problems with, someone to just LISTEN. YOU HAVE TALENTS, and you DO have troubles in your life, you just have to stick with it and ride them out. You only what to get through life as easy as possible and with as few of mistakes as you can manage. Another friend mentioned to me that if you look at life in a negative way, you will see only the worst things, the negative things. So you have to look at life in a positive manner to have a good outlook on life. It makes so much sense and it is so easy to do, it's so easy to just look around in a positive manner, to feel good about yourself and your particular talents. It's so easy to do that we tend to miss it completly. All I want out of life is to be happy. To feel secure in my life, in my goals, in my dreams. To look at the people around me, my friends, and feel safe, to be able to trust them with secrets of myself, to be able to trust them. I want what everybody wants, and if we work together, help each other, then I am sure we can reach it together. I have had some rough times in my life, I still do, but I do the best I can to survive. With a little support from my friends, I can make it through. I want you, the people that receive this letter, to send it to people that are close to you, people you spend time with, hang out with, roomates, friends, lovers, people that surround you. Spread it around so people can learn that we are not seperate, we are not segerated from each other. It is up to you to figure out what you want in life, it is up to you on how you live it, positive or negative. You have to be there for your friends and, inturn, they should be there for you. Send this letter to anyone you know, or make one up yourself and send that one. Life is a strange, hard, wonderful place full of dangers and treasures. It is up to you, and you alone on how you act in it, but you aren't alone, not anymore, help those closest to you.
