Some things

Some things you take for granted.
Some things you don't notice.
Some things you focus on too much.
Some things you will believe without questioning.
Some things you will believe only if told by the right person at the right time.
Some things you think are ridiculous, and they are.
Some things you think are ridiculous
          but they're not.
Some things you will never understand because you don't take the time to try.
Some things you will love without thinking.
Some things you will hate without thinking.
Some things you will never try
           no matter what anyone else says or does.
Some things make you angry,
Some things make you sad,
Some things break your heart,
Some things make you cry,
Some things make you scream,
Some things make you break down...
           and that's okay.
Some things overwhelm you.
Some things disappoint you.
Some things leave you wishing that you had never trusted
         Never loved
         Never been happy
         Never tried
         Never wished.

But

Some things make you happy.
Some things make you smile.
Some things make you laugh.
Some things make your heart want to burst because it is so full of joy.

Some things make you want to believe again
                                                 hope again
                                                 love again
                                                 try again
                                                 live again

Some things make you feel like you can
             succeed
                      at whatever you attempt.

Some things are worth keeping, having, holding close,  remembering.

         Even when
Some things
         Go wrong.

Something can make up for everything that has ever gone wrong in your life.
         And when you find what that is,
Some things
         won't matter.
