Thanks for making me the feel most loved for my last weekend as a Langdon. You're the best. (at San Luis Obispo, California)

Life is going to get tough. It’s one of those certainties—like how your mother will always be right. It just may take you a while to realize it. Life has a funny way of pushing you around that really isn’t that funny at all. People are going to pass away. Some will be far too young. It will hurt. It probably won’t heal. People will tell you that it only takes time, but you will try to speed the process up with gas station beer and Camel Crushes, hoping they are wrong. And they are, but it doesn’t mean you are right. Life will punch you, right in the gut. It will feel just like that time you fell off the swing in 3rd grade and the ground knocked the air out of you. Life will knock the air out of you, but don’t stop breathing. Heartbreak will find you and it will crush you. You’ll lay in bed with a heart as broken as the mirror that fell off your wall in college. But do not be fooled. A broken mirror is still a mirror. And a broken heart is still a heart. It will continue to beat just like that old clock on your grandma’s wall that’s been there for what looks like centuries. Life will get tough. Mama always said, “when it rains it pours.” And you will find out again: Mama is always right. You’ll get caught in the rain and soon you will find yourself trying to cross a river of disappointment so when those floods come, put on your rain boots. Those rivers may be scary, but you are stronger than they are. You may be as innocent as a sheep, but be as courageous as a lion. Always remember that people will let you down, so stop letting them hold you up, but never stop caring for them. Do no let yourself become bitter. Bitterness is cancer and it will destroy from the inside out. Life will get tough and some days you will feel the weight of the world on your back. Don’t feel bad if you have to slow down and take a load off. Rest. You need it. But never let the weight of life’s disappointments hold you back. Keep your head up. Life will get tough and your arms will never be long enough to hug all the people who are hurting, but don’t let that stop you from trying. You can’t save the world, but don’t let that stop you from trying either. Never give up. Never give in. Wake up each day and smile at yourself. The most beautiful person in the world is the one staring back at you. Take that smile and give it away to everyone you walk by, because smiles are the best medicine. Most importantly, be good. Do good, despite how bad the world seems. I promise you there is good in this world. You just have to look, and, sometimes, you have to be the good. You have to be the stars shining in the darkest nights. You can do it.

C, carry on (via coltonsnead)

looking through old polaroids feels like walking through the exhibits of a museum. there is the friend who taught me how to play hopskotch, how to hurriedly eat a popsicle before it melted into the sidewalk, how to cross my heart and hope to die. there is the lover who introduced me to goosebumps, cheap thrills that became the most memorable stories, the first all-nighter that i pulled because my eyes were too sore to let me sleep. it seemed like a lifetime ago, before i grew into someone who has learned how to let go of people before they change.

i don’t know what lies ahead for you, but i know it will be absolutely breathtaking. you’ll never expect it to happen, and you’ll never think you could feel so wonderful. when you go through it, you’ll be glad you stuck around. please, please live to see it.
