Ever feel like everything is going your way, then from one event, things seem to change forever? Life is funny that way, always sending you curveballs at all the wrong times, making you feel as if you should just throw in the towel. And just when it looks like it can't possibly be anyworse, you seem to sink lower. And then all of the sudden you have a tiny bit of hope, you see the light at the end of the tunnel again, shining brighter than it ever has before, but you only think so because of the pain you have just been through, because you know you felt the same way the last time so much pain and suffering was in your life. But we all know that life never seems to want to cut any of us a break, so after seeing the light we get pulled back into the dark, of course we all know that the dark is different for all of us, it could be drugs, alcohol, problems with your love life, sick family, friends, or neighbors. Darkness is funny sometimes, things that would never scare you, noises, shapes, weird lights, never stand out when it is light, it also seems to be the same when you are dealing with problems in life. But when things seem so bad that you can't even stand to live any longer great things tend to start happing. You began to lift yourself up by actions and thoughts that haven't enterned your mind in so long, pushing yourself mentally to get out of the darkness that seems to keep holding you down, and out of the dark tunnel that has been keeping you captive for so long, you began to experience life in a new way. Stopping to smell the roses as they say. Amazing what little actions on people's part can do. When in the depressing state such small things can make you head in the right way, think about it, half of one of your friends cookies can make anyone's day! Or a call from a friend, maybe just a friendly smile from a stranger. Such small acts that seem to brighten someones day, or possibly even week. Why can't we just stop to say hello to someone looking down, why must we always pass that person by? Why does it seem that the human race seems to slip more and more into the lives that we live instead of trying to help the ones that we care about around us that we know are hurting? This is my question to you, when was the last time you stopped and helped a person in need? When was the last time you helped a friend in need? When was the last time you stopped and thought of someone other than yourself?
