Never Be Afraid To Be Yourself

I deserve to see the blessing in the pain.
I deserve to see the gain in the loss.
To see the joy in the sadness; the acceptance amist the grief is one way to survive.

I never knew life, or appreciated loss, until I experienced death.
I've never cried and let it vibrate; shake throughout my whole being as I just lie there, gasping for breath.
I've never screamed so vehemously, to where my voice echoed in my head and my throat was raw before.

I deserve to turn this great big negative into a great big positive.
This is my goal for today.
This is my goal for the rest of my life.
This is what I deserve.
