Life can be

Life can be cruel and unfair. We may encounter twists and turns and bumps in the road as we travel down the road that is our life. We can't stop though. We have to keep living. Things may happen to us that are so painful it feels like the air has been punched out of us. Those things, the pain and hurt, can be made worse by the people in our lives. People that don't understand what we are going through, the pain we have felt. These people may misconstrue the emotions we express. Maybe it's because they don't understand that they feel the need to label or explain our feelings and actions. Oftentimes, those labels and explanations will not be our true feelings and intentions. All of this can make the pain and hurt we feel worse. Sometimes all you need to hear is "everything is going to be okay" or "I love you" or "I'm here if you ever need to talk".
