Rambling

I suppose there are times when you just have to stop taking things to heart. Everyone seems to know this already.

Holding onto those things is refusing to grow up. I don't really know how to say anything in the right words, but I just think I've realized this. It's important.

Sometimes you have to let it go and be strong, not always for yourself, but for others. Maybe you don't care how much you destroy yourself, but sometimes other people do.

Maybe I learned that today. Maybe I learned it over the years, or maybe I've always known it.

Is this what growing up is? You let go of all comforts and brace yourself for reality. It hits hard, and it's not easy to beat it... I guess this isn't a video game, either.

You just let things go, and accept things. That's what people have to do.

And it's so strange, because sometimes I feel like letting all these things go is letting go of myself.

But I'm not sure if that's a lie.

I'm not sure of anything anymore, but I'll be strong and learn to deal with these things. I'll learn to accept.

I don't know what's going to happen. I don't know anymore.

That's just how it is. That's it.
