Just.. Live?

Look at yourself in the mirror... go on. Take a good long look at yourself. You're beautiful and you can be anything you want to be. You can do anything, go anywhere. The possibilities are endless so dream big and be open-minded. Don't let fear stand in the way. It's your life, so learn to live it on your terms. Stand for something, even if it means you stand alone.

Change the things you can. Change your attitude towards the things you can't. Cry, because sometimes it helps, but know when to let go too. Don't cling onto memories because you're afraid of who you'll be without them; start making new ones instead. Let go of today and focus on tomorrow, because what's done is done.

Don't take yourself too seriously all the time. Turn the radio up and sing your heart out. Do the crazy things you've never dared to do before. And laugh a lot. Smile even if you don't feel like it, because things can always be worse. Stay up all night and watch the sunrise, because often it's the little things we can take the most pleasure from. Learn to appreciate them, and to stop taking life for granted. Someone somewhere would give anything to trade places with you.

When things gets tough instead of sitting inside watching the storm from the window and waiting for it to pass, why not start learning to dance in the rain? Start doing all those little things you plan on getting around to 'one day.' Make that day today, because tomorrow isn't a guarantee; we never know how much time we've got left. So why not just live?
