Ever get this feeling, even though you're surrounded by people, that you're alone? Ever stay up just for the very sake of it? Ever gorge yourself silly just to see how much you can take? And never learn your lesson? Ever put on a wide smile and big grin while hiding some sort of sadness in your heart? Ever take a walk, alone, in the cold chilly night, just to get out and get fresh air? Ever have your heart pound so fast you think you're going to pass out? Ever feel like there's nothing ahead of you, nothing behind you, nothing with you? Ever have all your plans fall apart before your eyes? And then realize how trivial the plans were? Ever feel helpless but be inclined to keep it all in? Ever try to stay strong when all you really want to do is fall apart? Have you ever? Have you ever?

Emotions, though fleeting and in passing, are evil, horrid hindrances. Null yourself to all else. Numb yourself. Make void emotions, take away the stagnant air. Refresh, recharge, rejuvenate. Remember, you always have friends who love and care. Friends who mean the world to you, and to them, you mean the world. Love, live, laugh - and by this motto i shall stand.
