"Why do the prettiest people die?"She asked. He looked back in admiration, breathed deeply, and asked her, "What kind of flowers do you pick when you're in a garden?"

I was told love should be unconditional. That’s the rule, everyone says so. But if love has no boundaries, no limits, no conditions, why should anyone try to do the right thing ever? If I know I am loved no matter what, where is the challenge?…It makes me think that everyone is very wrong, that love should have many conditions. Love should require both partners to be their very best at all times. Unconditional love is an undisciplined love, and as we have all seen, undisciplined love is disastrous.

There is something so frightening, you know, about fear. What even is fear? I could tell you a thing or two. For me, it’s not being enough. Not being pretty enough, or funny enough, smart enough, not having enough to eat or enough vodka to drink or not enough cigarettes to smoke. But that’s okay. That is one epidemic that more people in our universe suffer from, and a large portion of those people are too afraid and have too much fear to admit. The cold truth is the following ladies: it’s okay to not be okay, its okay to not be enough, its okay to sit in a dark room crying by yourself in order to find out those impossibly puzzling questions. Why? Because those horrible dark places help you see the brightest of lights. That’s what women are, lighthouses.

    My current question is simple. Why? Why do I have therapists telling me that I hate my life? Why are they labeling me with depression and anxiety? Why are they asking me for my family’s health history? Why are they drawing my blood to do a test to tell me whether or not I’m “normal?” Again with the labels. They cut deep. And some people aren’t familiar with how to absorb those labels and wear them in a healthy dynamic. And the truth is, you don’t have to wear them. Throw them away if you want to. Trademark them on your wrist if you want to. Do whatever you want to do. Fly to Paris, eat a piece of pizza, shoot a 3-pointer with 3.4 seconds left in the game when your down by two. But whatever you do, don’t you dare fear it. Fear is the enemy. Don’t you dare let it tear you down, because there is too many strong people that it has made weak. Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, me, my sister, my friends, just don’t. Because if you can get past that, if you can look past the fear, you will survive, and you will do it happily.

  Just think that you are in a boat going down the river between two mountains and that all you can see is 20 feet ahead of you you can see the bend in the river but you can't see what's around the corner. That's where you're at now in the river, navigating around a bunch of bends.  That's your perspective.  You’re in it. In the boat can't see much. Just where you’re at right now. When you get a little older or you get more insight in life you'll be able to be on top of the mountain that looks down on the river and then you can see everything you could see where you've been where you are and where you're going because your perspective has changed. I hope this makes sense.
