"Cause you don't know what you've got until it's gone." #UntilItsGone #LinkinPark #TheHuntingParty I can't sleep, and I am missing so many people that are no longer here. When they finally disappear, you realize their importance and impact on your life. The significant roles they played to help shape you into the being at you are today. Flashbacks and waves of grief side swipe you at any given moment. Tears swell in your eyes. You almost feel like you're going to choke. You feel like you've been hit by a car. This never ends, and it is a part of life that we all, sadly, must endure. That is why living your life to the fullest as if everyday is your last is very important. Take in every memory and cherish them. Cherish your friends and family that are there for you and care about you. Cherish those who need help. Protect those who are not as strong. Be the light in someone's life, but don't burn your bulb out. Live for the now because tomorrow could never come. Take the past and embrace its pain to give you the strength to move on. Be concerned for the future, but do not be frightened by what is yet to come. It is hard to deal with grief, and it is hard to deal with the fact that this person in your life was just there, but remember that they still are. Just...not in a physical sense. Remember your importance and theirs as well. Keep your spirit alive, and remember to enjoy the life you have. It hurts. Life itself hurts, but, that doesn't mean everything has to hurt. If anyone needs someone to talk to, I am always here. You're all family to me. We are in this life together. Let's make the most of it while we still have it. #FuckDepression #MakeChesterProud #320ChangesDirection #HereForYou #Grieving #FuckLoss #CelebrateLife #LiveForTheNow #IAmHereForYou
