Survival

You wake up in the morning and you don’t know what to say, what to feel, who to believe, or who to speak to. Every single goddamn morning we wake up, and we have no idea what the rest of our day will consist of. We don’t even know if today is the day where we can’t take it any more. Where we quit our jobs. Where we get fired. Where the person we love doesn't love us back. Somehow, every single morning, we have this innate courage which causes us to survive and at least see how the day plays out. I am not sure if this is accurate, but I can’t really believe in people killing themselves the instant they wake up. Even though every morning sucks with uncertainty, we still all possess that incredible hope and beauty that makes us feel like. maybe, we will finally turn things around...today.

"With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful.
Strive to be happy."
