True, there are many sad and unfortunate things that happen everyday. True, people die and become mortally wounded every minute of every hour. True, we live in a dangerous and unpredictable realm. True, life can still be truly amazing.
There are evil things in life, yes, but more so, there are great things all around us, whether we strive to see them or not. A mother who loses a child is woman who gains strength unparalleled. A man who loses his dignity becomes becomes broken, only so that he can revel in the experience of putting himself back together again. Without the evil things in life, great people would not exist, we would wonder this place lost and indifferent. A fate more horrible than any; not knowing what lay on the other side, not having faith of rebirth. And no, I don't mean religion, I mean hope. A hope for a better world, a hope in people, that there is something worth living for. Because without that, wouldn't we already be dead?
Why cry? Be stong for yourself and rise above it all. Be the best that you can be and strive for nothing less. You owe it to yourself, and if you believe in God, to him as well.
We must all believe in something higher than ourselves, always...
