dear me,

dear struggling vic,

Remember when you thought your world was going to end like a million times, over a million different things? How there couldn't possibly be a way to get over these things? Remember crying over things that might have seemed so stupid then but are a big issue now? Remember when you kept feeling so betrayed so many different times and felt like you could never forgive? Remember burrowing in your bed not wanting to face the world?

Well. Your world didn't end, you got over many tragedies and people, you're hair is growing, your friends with some pretty new cool people that you'll never forget, you've forgiven people for things you maybe shouldn't have, and you climbed out of that bed and faced the sun.

You wanna know something funny? Life goes on, you never stop growing, and you never stop becoming. Today might seem like the most miserable day, but there's going to be a day where you look back on this very day and pat yourself on the back, or maybe even slap yourself in the face for feeling like you couldn't get through this day. For then, it will seem like a more simple day then others.

There's always going to be challenges, people that choose to hurt you, and times in your life where you feel like things could not possibly get worse. But I can promise you, you're going to get through it.. you always have and you will continue to do so.

Because each problem makes your heart a little stronger and yourself a little wiser. Keep on keepin on, vic. Because the big picture is going to be totally worth it.

sincerely,
stronger than yesterday vic

"But the struggles make you stronger & the changes make you wise.
& happiness has it's own way of takin' it's sweet time.
Life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride."
