Just Another Face

Last night as I was just on the verge of falling into a nice restfull night's sleep, when it dawned on me, yes another brilliant idea. Here goes... I believe that sometimes you have to believe that you are just going to barely make it through in order to actually make it through, and realize how truly wonderful life is. Despite all of life's setbacks, letdowns, broken relationships, knives in the back, and all around crappy situations people always find a way to keep going. We always find a way to survive even if that means barely making it through because in the end we can turn around and say, "Ya, I went through that, and you know what I made it to the other side." And in those moments we find people to help who are not quite unlike ourselves, and we offer them a hand and a shoulder to lean on. It seems that sometimes you have to go through something extremely difficult in order to learn a little humanity, learn a little compassion and humility. When you think about it we can't be nearly as alone as we all think we are, so maybe if we all got up the courage to talk about those times we just barely made it through we would find someone just like us. We learn some great lessons in our times of utter desperation, and sometimes just getting by is all we can do. Then we finally break the surface and get a breath of fresh air, and we remember what living is all about... That's it my brilliant revelation.
