When all else fails, paint you’re the sky. When all else fails, wash your hands and let the dirt from today become a particle of what we know as trash, mistakes. Let it go, wave goodbye as it floats on and becomes your smile. When all else fails write a letter to yourself, and tell all of your darkest secrets, reach deep within. Read them until you have them written on your face, breathe them in until you are no longer ashamed. Swallow them whole, without the cracks, the missing pieces, and the dripping sweat of things remembered; reasons to hide whoever it is that you are. Raise your glass to imperfections, count them if you may, and put them in row, next to the perfect person, smile because that is how much more knowledge you will have. And maybe you’ll have to make the same mistake twice before your brain fits it perfectly as a new reason to seek out hope. When all else fails, pretend your good enough to be something, and maybe one day you might actually walk the path you’d planned. When everything changes, and everything fades, tell yourself its supposed to happen that way, and you’ll get through. When lying fails, tell the truth – don’t tell yourself you are only human because we can be so much more. Break down the barriers, and be more than just beating hearts, and outlines, and veins that you can only feel when life is running low. Be one with everything, and maybe one day you will find your way into everything possible. You will be the essence for everything that was once just barely here. Give life not a reason to be any less than it is
