A little poetic and a little life

To the people who try, the people who forgive. To the people who find themselves standing alone when they've done things right, but everyone thinks it is wrong. To the people who try, when trying means sacrificing the last breath you have.

Do not give up, do not lose hope. Do not give in, and do not let go. Keep true to yourself, the words and thoughts that make you who you are. Hold on to everything you believe in as if it is the only thing worth believing in. Your spirit will keep your compass true.

To the people who love, to the people who care. The people who hold themselves to standards that everyone else discards, the people who cherish the forgotten memories and the promises of the past. To the people who know what real friends are, when being a true friend means risking everything.

Do not forget, do not falter. Do not hold mistakes against yourself, but hold yourself to fix them. Do not try to become something you are not, only try to believe in something you have always been. Do not close your hand in a fist, only hold your hand open and lend it to those in need. Your heart will follow whatever lessons you embrace.

Try hard today. Try harder tomorrow.
If you do these things, this world will be a better place.

Those ideas define so much of my life.
