Stayin’ alive
If you are lucky enough to stay alive long enough, many things will fall apart or fall away. If you are lucky, what you are left with might be what is most important.

Gentle reader: How are you coping with all that you are going through, right now? If you feel like you need help, never be afraid to seek it.

No feeling is final
No matter how stuck you might feel, no moment is eternal and no feeling is final. There is always a way through.
