My friend,
my colleague,
my fellow human.

Life is ******* hard.
And I wish there were
something
anything
I could say to make you feel better
about this whole living thing.
I will never claim to understand
why people
in trying to carve out an identity
for themselves,
decided to carve great holes in your
soul.
Through these holes I can see your
kindness and your love escaping,
and it breaks my heart.

I don't know what you should do,
friend,
but I do know this:

Your path in life is nebulous at best.
And that's not a bad thing,
because when everything's in the ****
like this,
and you want to get somewhere better,
all you have to do is
point your feet in a direction

and
Walk.
