1 AM Breakdown, 2 AM Clarity

Sometimes, life is hard.
There will always be someone you miss.  And it doesn't matter how far away they are or how long they will be gone; it will always ache.
Happy memories will make you cry.
Sometimes you will be lost at sea, and the days will plow into you like waves, one after another, pummeling you into the sand.  And sometimes there will be no waves at all, and time will pass too slowly, and you will sit staring at the flat horizon all around with no idea which way to go.
The world changes.  So will you.

And it's scary.
But it's the good kind of scary.

So go on as many adventures as you can.
Read books.
Love everyone.  Unconditionally.  Yes, even that person.
Bear in mind that ice cream and music feed the soul.
And always remember that life is beautiful.
Not just in your Instagram pictures.  Not even just in your memory.  Celebrate life as it happens.
Even the hard stuff, because there is peace and joy on the way.  I promise.
