Pain

Pain changes a person. But you have to be strong enough to not let it change you for the worst. If anything, pain should make you smarter. You'll know not to make the same mistakes that you did when you were in that much pain. Sure I let pain change me for the worst! But when you are in pain and you want to make it stop, please keep going. Pain isn't all that bad. Sometimes it makes you stronger. Because once the pain subsides, you will be strong enough to love again. You'll be strong enough to be who you want to be and stop being so insecure about yourself. Pain can make you do crazy things and I know this from experience. It could make you want to end the life that you were given. You were born for a reason. I know I say that a lot, but I just feel like a lot of people I know are really feeling down. Suicide doesn't stop the chance of everything getting worse, it stops it from ever getting better. You could be in so much pain, but promise me that you'll keep moving forward. I don't care if you have to drag yourself across the floor! Just keep going okay? Live your life! Listen to your music way too loud and don't give a crap about what other people say! Because you are an amazing person! Sure I don't know who you are, but truly I care! So if pain is changing you, make it change you for the better. Suicide, cutting, drugs, burning, or anything else that is negative to you is not the answer. Distract yourself with positive things! Like hanging out with friends, sleeping, go outside, play with your dog, or whatever else you can think of! Because pain is just an obstacle in life. Pain will always be there and this is just a bump in the road! If its not better, then this isn't the end. Your life isn't a book so don't end it okay? Pain is just a bully that you need to stand up to and walk away from. :)
