Extraordinary

I never thought that meeting one person could completely change the way I thought about things and saw things until I met him. The optimist, my sliver of light in what was otherwise an overall shitty future. He makes it seem like my future can go somewhere other than down. Then there's me, the pessimist with crippling depression and social anxiety who would rather deal with the consequences of running away from my problems over facing them.
Hopefully, if I'm lucky, a little bit of his outlook on life will rub off on me.
