It’s in the
hard moments, the sad moments, the moments of desperation that you get to know
who’s there for you. Who’s standing right there with you. Who really loves you.
It’s not about the fun and games. It’s about the risks, about the bombs
triggered to go off. Life comes back to you in a flash, eh? And what are the
moments you’ll be reminding, who are the people you will be thinking of? Who
are you gonna call to tell you love them? Who’s voice do you want to hear right
before it’s over? Who’s face do you want to see? Do they love you enough to be
there with you no matter what? To stand there with you? To take your mind off
the awful reality and bring a smile to your face even in the darkest of times?
Because that’s what it is all about you know. Not having regrets. Not double
guessing actions. Not thinking if only. The little things. The big things. All
the things. Every glance, every smile, every act, every word, every kiss, every
Always. Because everything counts. Everything matters. Everybody matters. Every
second of every day. It should be spent with the people who will stand right
there with you. They were right, you
know? It’s not about the victories, it has never been. Because there are no
victories. Only the battle. And the people who will stand there with you.
Willing to fight with you. Willing to fight for you. Even when the enemy you’re
facing is yourself. Specially when the enemy to be faced is yourself. And even
if they have nothing else to do they’ll be there only so you’ll know they are
there. Only to hold your hand, even if they can’t turn on the light, or a
flashlight, or a candle, or a match. Plenty of fires could be taken down with a
single word. With a single look.
The hard
thing is to find these people. The ones who’ll be with you no matter what. The
ones who’ll be standing right where you stand. The ones who will make Always be
every day. Because they will love you for who you are. They will love you in
spite of who you are. And it’s not that they’re afraid of the stand, but
because there’s no backing down on love.
They hold
your hand and they’ll keep on holding forever.
And if you
ever find somebody like this…. Don’t you ever let go.
Not even
for a second.
Be their
Always.
