Suffering is everywhere. Don't ever think it isn't. by Jewel from life Quotes and Sayings

Suffering is everywhere. Don't ever think it isn't.
by Jewel

If I could tell the world just one thing
it would be we're all okay,
and not to worry cause worry is wasteful
and useless in times like these.
I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair,
I will gather myself around my faith.
Light does the darkness most fear.

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,

which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.

and I'm willing.

and move yourself at the same

Gather yourself by the sea shore and I will love you there.
Assemble yourself with wild things,

A man who will Kiss the Flame.
