What's my point in saying all of this? Well what I guess I'm trying to say is... fight like hell. Sure, I probably could never understand what everyone is going through. But, every cloud has a silver lining. There's positives for every negative. I can't change everyone through this post. But I can do my part to help see that everyone has their own struggles. Just keep pushing, keep talking to people, make connections, reach out, be a friend. Be a Tigger.

Push
This is tough. To anyone reading this, please know that there is someone to talk to always. I will always be here to talk to I swear. I'm upset. I'm really upset that someone's last resort has to be suicide. It shouldn't have to be that way. That shouldn't have to happen ever. No one should ever have to feel fed up with the world. No one should feel alone. And no one should feel crushed under the temporary weight of problems. I wish I had known. I wish someone could've helped. That's whats so damn scary. You never know what personal battles people are dealing with. Everyone has their own demons to take care of. Everyone is on their own uphill battle. Some of us have our backs against the wall. I'm just mad that I don't give people the benefit of the doubt sometimes. It's hard to I know. Nobody's perfect. People suck.

Because I Said I Would
At the beginning of this 2013 year I made a list of New Year's resolutions. Most pertained to my weaknesses. I thoughtfully wrote most of them down at 3 a.m. a couple days after January 1, 2013. I wanted to share my first three resolutions.
1.) Don't make promises you cannot keep.
2.) Act upon your words.
3.) Do it because you said you were going to do it.
Not too long after making these resolutions I stumbled across this website where people make promises "because they said they would." They make promises AND keep them because they said that they would. And their words are final. That is pretty admirable and inspiring if you ask me. The idea of backing up your words with a definite action is crazy. Think about how much better of a person you or me could be if we all kept our promises. We would all be trustworthy, honest, and genuine speakers. I I think that is something I need to work on to make me a better person. And I think it's something we could all work on collectively.
I will be a better person. I will make a difference. I will because I said I would.
