Now and again we need reminders. Things to reason with. We do that a lot actually. But we find ways to reason against ourselves

..please not today...

If you can hear what I'm saying, if you're sure I'm talking to you right now...hey..you work hard, you know. Most people wouldn't say this but you've have a whole lifetime getting here. There is still more ahead for you, and for us. Together.

You've made it far and I'm proud of you because that is something to be proud of. I think you're someone who has stomached so many failures but seen your share of triumphs too. You've struggled along the way, and that's okay, that's just fine. We all need to gain a little balance, a little perspective from all this.

Maybe you've made some mistakes. That's..fine. I hope whatever problems you've faced, they only remind you, not bind you.

I want you to know something. You are deserving of a lot of love. Nothing...absolutely nothing in this life will ever change that. If you don't believe me..well..then come and sit with me sometime.

All I could ever hope to be is someone here to help you understand. No matter what you may be feeling right now, good or bad, happy or sad..you are never powerless. You will define each and every moment ahead of yourself. All it takes is a little bit of heart. Broken or not.

You can turn your back on this truth. But it, nor I, will turn our backs on you.
