Less Than Perfect

None of us are perfect.


'Kay, I know you've all heard that one before. But it's true. We may ACT like it, because we're just humans. What in the world do we know? We get caught up so easily by something as little as a feeling. We can never see the whole picture. Up close, everything looks blurred. Like a maze, ya know? Like we'll never find our way out.


But it's not actually like that. We may be unable to see the whole picture, but that doesn't mean it's not there. We all need to learn to take things one at a time. Yeah, and I know you've heard that one as well. Why is it that the best quotes and sayings are the ones repeated so often they sound fake? It's stupid, because they are always the most-true ones. The ones that say "Somebody else has lived through it. They must've, to say something like that."


There will ALWAYS be somebody else who's lived through the same thing as you. Unless you're some Galactic Warrior who fights aliens for a pass-time (there goes my attempt at seriousness). But really, seek out help. You're NOT alone, even if it feels like it. Even if you're shy, even if the situation is insanely personal, talk to someone. Doesn't matter if you tell them what it's about. Just talk. Hey, you can even send me a message, I'd love to help you. (Although I must warn you, I SUCK at making people feel better!) But if all you need is somewhere to rant. Try me. You don't even need to tell me your name!


We try. As humans, we really do. We grab for something way outside of our reach, we eat things we know will taste bad, we even try making big blog posts to try to express our feelings (Hah, Fail Point for me!). "Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end." Take that to heart. Know that people out there love you, even if they won't out-right say it. And just take one thing at a time.


This is for you, Bouncy-chan.
