nothing matters


breathe in the spring air

celebrate your team's win

fall in love with a new song

relish those roller coaster highs

 

yes, sometimes life sucks

but

your life away

from what "matters"

is what matters in the end

 

the next time you start to slip from that last monkey bar or fail a test or lose a friend or forget how to live-not-just-exist or 

the next time you simply lose hope

please hang on

it's always worth it

there's always another good day just around the corner

always another piece of music for you to love

another victory

time

 

to find happiness

is easier said than done

but sometimes happiness is a choice

choose happiness

and yes, take your time

meet people along the way

find those awesome things in life

have fun

 

after all

nothing matters

unless you want it to

after all

we're only here for the ride

and that's okay

and it's gonna be okay

I promise.
