You fall, you rise, you make mistakes, you live, you learn. You&#039;re human, not perfect. You&#039;ve been hurt, but you&#039;re alive. Think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive to breathe, to think, to enjoy, and to be with people you love. Sometimes there is sadness in our journey, but there is also lots of beauty. We must keep putting one foot in front of the other even when we hurt, for we will never know what is waiting for us just around the bend.
