Heres the thing.....life is difficult at times for us and sometimes life seems impossible for others for a very long time. I know Ive been through my bouts of feeling bad on the inside about me but I think thats normal, as long as you know its temporary. If youre feeling run down by your own train of thought just say to yourself this is right now and Im going to feel better later. Keep your eyes and hearts open as well because someone you know and love could be experiencing something and be uncomfortable discussing. Thats our job as people who care for them to present a platform, a safe place to express themselves and let them know they are not alone. It may take some time and coercing, if so go for a drive, get coffee, just bunker down in their company til they feel safe enough to share. Who knows it might actually save a friend or family member. What harm is it to let someone you care about know youre there for them and not just in the good times but at all times. We live in a world where we sometimes only focus on what we dont have, dont have that car, dont have that phone, dont have that body, dont have that face, dont have that house, dont have that money, dont have those clothes BUT THATS ALL BULLSHIT! You have this beautiful gift of your amazing life dont waste it comparing, enjoy it by living your custom life built exclusively for you. You feel shitty? thats ok talk it out. Someone you love is acting different and isolating themselves, march your ass over knock on their door and ask if theyre good? We can do simple small things collectively and make a change and present a safe place to our people or even strangers. If youre the person feeling this way about your life know youre not alone, there is a lot of us who have felt the same exact way you do. Tell someone how youre feeling and they dont give you what you need tell someone else, get the weight of the burden off you. There is nothing to be ashamed about. We are all the same species that inhabit the same planet and chances are there is someone near you feeling the same way or worse. You expressing yourself is not a sign of weakness but a badge of bravery and your bravery could inspire someone elses and that could alter a life forever. This isnt for everyone but for you guys who read this and relate, know its going to be ok. Expose your vulnerability to your trusted source, they are your trusted source for a reason, take them up on it. Dont mean to get preachy but I do care and know life isnt easy BUT life is great, beautiful, amazing, magical, special, temporary time we all share. Might as well focus on the good we do have even if its just a little bit of it. Remember, no one can read your mind, if you feel bad share it, theres good people out there who will help. -Nick
