"Look around and you'll see that at times it feels like no one really cares. It gets me down but I'm still gonna try to do what's right, I know that there's a difference between sleight of hand, and giving everything you have. There's a line drawn in the sand, I'm working up the will to cross it."
"I know one day, all our scars will disappear, like the stars at dawn, and all of our pain, will fade away when morning comes, and on that day when we look backwards we will see, that everything is changed, and all of our trials, will be as milestones on the way. And as long as we live, every scar is a bridge to someone's broken heart."

I find today more and more people just feel like giving up. I'm usually the one who's always here for everyone, even people I don't really know. They talk to me, and tell me about their problems and what they're going through in life. I'm like a friggen counciler lol. I don't mind it though. Helping people makes me feel good, like I actually do have a purpose! ha.
But seriosuly, everyone who feels like giving up, don't. You're stronger than that. I've been through alot of shit in my life too, and I can't tell you how many times I've felt like giving up completely...and yes, by that I mean taking my own life. But I gave it alot of thought before I was going to go through with it, and every time I realized it wasn't worth it, I was better than that, and I just needed to get away from the people who made me want to do that. It took me a while to realize what I was doing, and how stupid I was to even think about doing that. And no way am I saying I'm really strong and know how to deal with everything now, because that's not true. I still have a hard time with alot of things, but I don't think about taking my life over a stupid little issue that just brings me down for a little bit.
Basically, I'm just telling anyone who feels like giving up, don't and just wait it out. Do things that make you happy and cheer you up, and don't stay at your house alone, try to be around people as much as possible. And listen to music with positive lyrics, and a positive, happier, more laid back sound, that always works for me. Let your feelings out, tell someone you truely trust and who will listen to you about what you're going through. Try to stay positive, and remember, things eventually do get better, and with every problem in your life that you overcome, you get stronger everytime. :]
