Memento Mori
Find your freedom in the music.
I came to the conclusion earlier today that there is something trying to tell me something through music.

Music as a medium- whoda thunk it? xD

But the feeling crept up on me as I listened and listened to some stuff while wading through some of the work I have let pile up at my desk; at the same time I was mentally doing something much like what I was doing physically- sorting through stuff, throwing stuff out that was either past or I simply did not care to stress over anymore- when all of a sudden I stumbled upon something that lead me to this and I could deny it no longer.

Something. Is trying. To get. A message. Through to me. Past my. Thick skull.

It was a fantastic feeling because the message is beyond good- the message made me feel like things are going to be okay after all- despite what my borked brain tries to get me to believe sometimes. With a title like Remember Who You Are from my all-time favorite band after the chilling similarities between a certain other artist whose work I adore because it seems like his stuff eerily mirrors what I am feeling when, I could not look at the track listings and not see a message.

I like roadsigns that point a thumb's up and any sign that gives me hope right now is beyond welcome. I feel like I have just gotten over a flu that nearly killed me- yeah, I am a little weak and a little shaky on my feet, but I am still standing and I am going to continue going despite the fact that the hill has been a steep one, indeed.

Nothing ventured- for damn sure nothing gained. I heard once that life rewards the brave...well, here's to hoping it rewards the stubborn, too.

    Being stubborn is like being persistent, and persistence pays off, so they say. At the very least, giving up and backing down doesn't pay off.

    But you have to be flexible, too. Like with asking for help. I think that's part of taking it easier on yourself, too- realizing it's okay to accept help. It's okay to voice things you want or need, and you are strong enough and have proved enough that anyone who really knows you knows you aren't just whining, mooching, or begging for handouts. We won't take it the wrong way. And I think that at least most of the people who really know you want to help you. In fact, you may be helping us when you ask for help. It's nice when you give us ways to be a friend to you.

    This really probably deserves a PM. But I have a cat right now, so that will probably wait a bit. rofl
