Just close your eyes;
The sun is going down.
You'll be alright;
No one can hurt you now.
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound.
So, we all have our rough times. And for all of those who feel down right now, I just want to remind you;
  • You are beautiful how you are.
  • How you see yourself, may not be how you really are. Just because you think yourself fat, ugly, or whatever... Doesn't mean you are.
  • People care, and love you for who you are. They are there for you. Just like I am.
  • Never give up. You're stronger than that.
  • There are alternatives to self harm. Use these before you even consider that first cut. It's not worth it. <3
I promise I'm not being cliché, as much as it may seem it. I've seen people feeling down, and they've gotten better. I, myself, have gotten better. I'm not perfect, but hey I'm better than I was, what? Just a month ago!
Guys. Trust me. You're beautiful how you are.
Don't hurt yourself, for hurting yourself makes it worse.
Don't hide it, for hiding it causes isolation.
Don't give up, for giving up isn't worth it.
I'm here if you need me. <3

Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked.
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay,
I got mouths to feed.
There ain't nothin' in this world for free.

I was expecting you to already know it, haha. It's a pretty popular song.
And, don't thank me. Thank The Hunger Games for leading me to it. :3
Well, it popped up in my YouTube subscriptions' favorites. x3

Oooh, and here's another pick-me-up for you artists out there;

At times when you feel like giving up on your artwork
And everyone puts you down because of how much they say it sucks
Don't stop there
Keep working on it, and it will turn into a masterpiece

My favorite video that always helps perk me up some. Really powerful and beautiful.​
Darn, I was just about to post this.

Really, I have seen so many people come and go through this community, from the quietest players to the heads of staff. And I am always available for anyone who needs to talk. It's so much more important to talk than to remain silent and fight by yourself. I mean this. I am reminded of this quote I read on TvTropes, and it touched me very deeply. I think it kind of applies to us all.
  • You.I don't care who you are, what you look like, how old you are, where you're from, what you do for a living, what religion you are, your sexuality, your opinions, SOMEONE, SOMEWHERE loves you and cares about you. Be it your friends, your family, or some random person on the street, there's always someone that wants to see you smile, even if it doesn't seem like it. Love and affection are present everywhere you look, and if you're considering hurting yourself, for the love of God, think about this before you do it. Even if nobody you know or met cares (and I guarantee that they do), there's a million people you've never met who don't want you to hurt yourself. I know I certainly don't. So go hug a kitten, pet a puppy, give someone flowers, tell a joke, be happy. Because you will never, ever be alone.
    • Remember, you are a troper. You're one of us. Even if this is your first time on this site, even if you don't have an account, you're part of the community we have here. And we don't want to lose you.* You've made it this far and we know you can make it the rest of the way. You Are Better Than You Think You Are, and we tropers are in this together.

I don't mean to jump on the bandwagon a bit with this thread, but I'll try and take a different approach. Don't worry I won't get too soppy on you.

Well, you know, take it from me; Just a few months back I sat on my bed and almost ended my life before it even began. My mind was overwhelmed because I was just so aware of everything, and those things felt too high strung for me so I melted down over a couple years' time. Lesson learned: Never become too aware of your own existence, or it might make you nonexistent.

Whatever problems you're having now are just the passing of a major piece of destiny YOU chose, whether you meant to or not. I can guarantee that this problem will pass, and when it does, you'll have passed the test of life itself. You have overcome ONE more thing! And when you look back on that one thing, you'll notice, now with a realistic and less-obscured point of view how idiotic the problem was, and that you should have never worried over it ever. That's how the mind works. If you care enough about being alive, your mind and personality will figuratively STRETCH to help you survive.

You'll float on down the river after being caught on a low hanging branch, and grow up. Being tested by chosen destiny over and over, and every time overcoming a feat larger than the last. So when you're laying there on your deathbed, you can think about all the things you've done in life just to survive, let alone provide for yourself and be successful.

It's actually a really nice song, in all honesty.

Also, about to edit the original post with another song~ c:
spare me my brain cells.
But really, it's not that she's a bad artist, but the fact that I hear 20 of her songs every day. I literally think I've lost brain cells. It also may be that every time she breaks up, which is a ton, she says, "I've had this heart-wrenching breakup, so I dedicate this song to it~"

Haha, I'm sure we've all felt that way about her music at some point. xP
