There is always a happy ending. If it's not happy, its not the end! There are endless opportunities behind closed doors, and so when one door shuts, another swings open, pushed open by all the possibilities backing it. Don't give up, there is a happily ever after for you too. You are beautiful and loved, more than you will ever know. You are part of a bigger picture, far bigger than you can ever fathom or understand in a million lifetimes. You matter to someone, be it a mother, father, brother, sister or friend, you matter to them and they will die to protect you. There are going to be bumps on the road of life that you can't swerve. There is gonna be people who will bring you down, which is why you need someone to hold you up strong. There are people who are gonna spread lies, which is why you gotta be honest about the truth. There are gonna be so many moments for you to frown, so take the chance to smile when you can. "Sticks and stones may break your bones but words will never hurt you." I remember my mum telling me that the first time I came from school crying. It was the first of many, but I learnt to hide the tears underneath. Never do that, never let the tears be cried inside, or you will end up crying from the wrists, alone. There is always someone to cry down the phone to, you gotta be proud enough to keep your dignity but not enough to refuse help. Help will come when you most need it. You just gotta ask...
I love you. Stay beautiful. <3
