So my life sucks...

...but I have amazing friends who never let me forget how wonderful, smart, beautiful, and funny I am.Man, I am so thankful for every person in my life who has ever stood behind me when I felt like fainting, helped me up when I fell down, and refused to leave my side even when I begged them to go. My friends remind me that even when it storms, there is a rainbow, and even though the thunder might be scary, there is nothing more refreshing then the smell of fresh rain.Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. And the answers to our problems never come packaged neatly in a box wrapped with a bow. Life freakin' sucks. But we all have two choices: let life get us down; or, let it push us forward into greatness. We can let horrible mistakes make us feel like our life is over; or, we can say, "wow, I totally screwed up, but I'm really sorry and I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure I don't do that again."It's so comforting to know that even though I'm taking this journey of self discovery by myself, I'll never really be alone.Oh, and when I'm done kicking life's ass, I will have a resounding celebration waiting for me.
