Inspiration to Life

After a while,
 you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul.

And you learn that love doesn't mean
 leaning and company doesn't mean security.

You begin to learn that kisses
aren't contracts and presents aren't promises.
And you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes open,
 with the grace of an adult,
not the grief of a child.

You learn to build
all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground
is too uncertain for plans.

After a while,
 you learn that even sunshine
burns if you get too much.
So plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.

You learn that you really can endure,
that you really are strong,
and that you really do have worth.

You learn that with every goodbye,
there's a hello.

So take chances.
Tell the truth.
Date someone totally wrong for you.
Say no.
 Spend all of your cash.
Say yes.
Sleep an entire day.
Read a book.
Tell a story.
Fall in love.
Get to know someone random.
Be random.
Say I love you.
Laugh at a stupid joke.
Cry.
Apologize.
Tell someone how much they mean to you.
Drink until the bottle's empty.
Sing out loud.
Tell an assh*le how you feel.

Let someone know what they're missing.
 
Laugh until your stomach hurts.

Live life.
