The important thing -- the one important thing to remember is that anyone can have a bad year. And in the future, maybe you won't be able to look back and laugh, but at least you'll be able appreciate not still being there. Also: Keep at the back of your mind this simple fact: There's no good without the bad.

Sometimes there are things that are just so fantastically unfair, so incredibly cruel, and immensely painful that we cannot help but feel isolated from the rest of the world. And that's a terrible feeling. It sucks. But in the end we're stronger. We can say, we lived through our darkest hour. It's smooth sailing from here. And that, in the end, at the finale, when everything is said and done, feels good.

(Further: We're feisty motherfuckers. Has any country on earth not tried to do us in? -- Not even Israel. :) )

Feel better. It sucks a lot -- and as flippant and dismissive as that sounds, it's true and I mean it. Really do feel better, though. And remember: In times of crisis it's certainly okay to put oneself at ( ... )

To start off with I cannot even begin to tell you how nice it was to see this comment. You expect your closest friends to be there for you, and its always nice when they are. However, I think what is nicest of all is when those people you don't expect to come through for you do.

You couldn't be more right. I'm going to come out of this stronger then I went into it, and it will pass. (I just wish it would be sooner then later) Also, it is okay to as you said "put myself at the forefront" and I forget to do that a lot. I think thats why I wind up here, where I am, in these horrible moods. I forget to thinking about myself and worry too much about everyone and everything else. I've got a lot of stuff to work out and I hate the thought of it all, but the truth is deep down inside I know that something great is going to come out of this eventually.

Thank you again - so much - for your comment. I hope you're doing well. And...lets not make it so long 'til we see each other again.

things like this only happen to people who can handle it. it seems unfair, but once you've gotten past all of this awfulness, your highs will seem all the more amazing. just sit and name all of the things you're grateful for tonight while you're lying in bed. sometimes i can almost make myself cry realizing how many things i have, even on my lowest days. i'm so sorry that all of these things have been happening, and it makes me upset that you have to go through all of this, but the best i can offer is that you find happiness in all that you can. i hope we get the chance to hang out. much love - bex.

Haha yeah sorry, that was a bit of a plan killer. Or I suppose I should say a plan delay-er because we WILL hang out soon. You've been a great support to me lately and it seems as though you actually understand the things I am saying (and even if you don't you pretend to well). My mom always used to tell me when i was younger something to the effect of "You never think you'll be able to handle something bad when it comes along, but God would never throw something your way that you couldnt handle and when it does happen God will give you exactly the amount of strength you need to overcome it." You and my mom are right. And youre right about having so much to be grateful for. My dad is still with me today, so is Michael. Tomorrow is a new day and it brings new things...I'll worry about it when it comes.

You're the best.
