Dear Reader

Trust me 
When I tell you
Life is hard
But it’s worth living
Sometimes you’ll
Fall down
And break your heart
In half
But in the end
You’ll be stronger than before
And you’ll know yourself 
A little more
Trust me
When I tell you
You can’t
Find happiness
If all you do is 
Look for it
You have to create it
From the dust
Trust me 
When I tell you
Not to judge yourself
Too harshly
You’re only human
Less than perfect
And every once in a while
You’ll fail
And that’s okay
