Sometimes you will have bad days

You will have days where it feels like depression has a leash around your neck and a shock collar

There will be days where even after years have passed, you will feel numbness overcome you, sucking the life out of you like a straw in a drink

There will be days where life feels meaningless and it feels like suicide is the only solution

But there will also be good days

Days where you smile so wide for so long that your cheeks ache like your legs do after a mile run

And days where the sunshine seems brighter than anything you've even seen, warmer than anything you've ever felt, and more beautiful than anything else

And days where you feel so much that it feels as if your body cannot contain the joy in your heart

Yes, there will be bad days. Just make sure you stick around to see the good ones.
