death does something to us like nothing else can. whether it brings out the best or worse of us i'm not entirely sure.
"how can it possibly bring the best out of us?"
while we may not see it at first, death is just as beautiful as life. because you can't have life without death.
it hurts. every day. the pain is hauntingly real. and it never really goes away, no matter how much we wish it would.
but here's the thing.
with pain comes strength.
you are strong enough.
you will make it through this.
it will be okay.
and instead of letting it destroy you, allow yourself to be driven by this newfound strength.
say to those who don't believe they can
"i made it, now let me help you. because you can make it, too. you are strong enough."
death is going to happen. to all of us.
it is how we take death and learn from it that really matters.
do not be afraid. take what you know, share it.
be there for the ones in the darkness of death and show them that they are meant to reach greater things, and that they will get out of the shadow of death.
help them realize the beauty in death. because it is there, just like it is in everything else.
be the one who listens to them when no one else would.
they have so much to say.
don't let death bring out the worse in you. you are meant to rise above it because you are strong enough.
