A Horrible Night, A Beautiful Day

Last night, two people from my hometown and one famous person killed themselves.

As I was discussing this fact with my mom, we came to the conclusion that something must have just been off with the world. Maybe it was a full moon or something, I don't know. But something went wrong.

And yet, today was one of the most beautiful February days I've ever experienced. Its seventy degrees outside, the sun is shining brightly, and I was wearing a really cute outfit with my brand new shoes. I can't help but feel good on a day like this.

Its just weird to think about. There are so many bad things going on in the world. I know that more and more every single day. But the world keeps spinning. Its not going to stop for anyone. So we have to choose to either spin along or give up. Obviously there are some people that don't seem to be able to handle it. I feel so bad for those people. Because even though there are some tough things going on in my life and the ones I love's lives right now, and even though the world is so cruel and horrific things happen daily, I still try my best to keep my chin up and smile.

Its hard. Its definitely hard. But there just has to be more than this. There has to be more than all the bad things going on. Situations will always get better, it just takes patience and perseverence to reach that point. I have to believe that.

This has been my philosophy for the day. I should write a book.
