use somebody

We all need somebody. Somebody we can always turn to. Somebody who can always help us fix our problems. It could be a best friend, a family member, a pet. The thing is that we are never alone. We may feel alone, but it's up to us to use those resources around us; to realize when we're in too deep and we can't stand on our own. The same concept is found in team sports. In order to succeed in a team game you can't play as individuals, you have to use each other. Find how one player accents another, utilize everyone's talents. We can't be good at everything and trying to do everything alone will only leave us stranded. We prove ourselves by asking for help, by learning how to accept our shortcomings. Find strength in numbers, find peace in others, find joy in somebody.

find a way

the beautiful thing about life is that there is always a way. It may not be easy, it may not be what we want, but we can always find a way. We may face situations that seem to have no resolution, that seem impossible to deal with, but it's not true. There is a solution for all the problems we face and our challenge is to take those problems and find a way to work through them. To find the best answer, even if it isn't what we were hoping for.
There's no fear inside.
This is our time, no giving up.
When we connect our hearts, to our minds,
There's no stopping us.
We need to approach everything before us with the an attitude of success. Take on every challenge knowing we can make it through, no matter how hard. It isn't easy, but it's not supposed to be. We're here to learn and be tested. We're here to grow. We're here to find our way.
