Message of Life

I depend on every one, thinking they'll come through. But apparently me just believing it, won't make it true. Maybe my problem is that i always lean on everyone else, When i should just lean on myself. No matter how much you try and change in your mind, it just won't work. A lesson that you'll soon come to find. I find myself asking: Who can i depend on? I imagined that i could depend on so many. But now i see. All i can count is me. There are so many disappointments in life. People go away; and you can't go- cause your somehow forced to stay. People grow and people change. Your dependency just needs to rearrange. You can cry and get up, or cry and stay down. Falling, just because yet another person has let you down? That's no way to live. Just always remember that it's normal for people to fall. The important thing is how you pick yourself up, how you continue to live, and what made you learn. Mistakes. Mistakes make you learn. Things happen in life, but you'll live. Things go wrong in life, but you'll learn. You live another day so you learn from your mistakes. You live to learn, Learn to Live. That's the message that mistakes give. You live and you learn.
