I could write reams about all the things that have been coursing through my mind or about all the issues I've been struggling with. Instead, I'll just quote a few lyrics from Incubus, which succinctly and effectively lays out what I keep trying to remind myself:
So don't let the world bring you down. Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold. Remember why you came and while you're alive experience the warmth before you grow old.
