I found this on a website for wives who are
coping with spouses with PTSD, but realized as I read the words slowly trying
to take in each meaning thinking it was written just for me, I know it wasn’t, this can be applied to
anyone’s daily life and so I wanted to share this with you. It really does
speak volumes.
***
As we grow up, we learn that even the one
person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down probably will. You'll have your
heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best
friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is
flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love
like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, and
no second chances. You just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what
they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain,
hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up,
stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to
take chances or fall in love and most of all; live in the moment because every
second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get
back.

Really
does speak out doesn’t it? So, upon reading this my favorite quote came to mind
as well – “When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and have them all
wondering how you did it.”
