"I know it hurts and I know there are days when you wake up in the middle of the night and can't breathe because of this unbearable lack of something or someone. I know what it's like to be sad for no reason at all, standing in the rain with no intention of surviving. I know things hurts, I hurt, but life can also be so beautiful... Wonderful things are waiting for you. I know it, I've had a taste of it, small moments of complete clarity. Magical nights under the stars and peaceful mornings with someone you love, and before you know it you will thank yourself for staying strong and holding on. I do, most of the days. I know there are days when even one single positive thought feels like too much effort, but you must develop an unconditional love for life. You must never lose your childish curiosity for the possibilities in every single day. Who you can be, what you can see, what you can feel and where it can lead you. Be in love with your life, everything about it. The sadness and the joys, the struggles and the lessons, your flaws and strengths, what you lose and what you gain."
