Save Me from the Dark (Old)

With All My Love

      My dear readers,

This is unfortunately not a chapter, but it's still something I think you should read.

   Now before you get mad at me for how long it's been since I've updated let me explain. I'm fairly certain I've mentioned before that I've moved and now that has gone and past. My first marching season has come to a most welcomed close and I have dealt with minor degrees of depression. So while I sat around doing nothing on most afternoons I thought to myself, "I wonder how many people have it worse." This thought startled me to say the least. When I attended the Imagine Dragons concert in Orlando on the 10th, Dan Reynolds said some things that were deeply moving. He said things that everyone ought to hear whether you have experienced depression or not. It's a human thing he said, and it's frightening how many people experience it and never make a comeback. It honestly moved me how well he understood the mass's emotional state, he himself also struggles greatly with depression. Though I can't directly show you the speech he gave the main takeaway was talk to someone. It doesn't have to be a therapist, or anyone professional for that matter. Though I don't always tell Phoenix directly that I'm a little out of it on a particular day sometimes just talking to her makes it better, and I try my best to do the same for her. I can't remember where I heard it, but there's a saying, "Ain't no sun for those who make it rain," and it holds truth. If you don't try to do better, to be better, then you'll never see a ray of sunshine pierce through those dark rain clouds. Sometimes you won't see the for awhile even if you try hard, but if you just keep working you will see the sun. I know there are a lot of you on Wattpad who struggle and I just want you to know that there are people who understand, people you can talk to. I don't fully understand what everyone is going through, and I don't pretend to, but I hope that this helps as much as possible. 

    All my love,
